I want journalists that make it their mission in life to question everything and everyone. I want them to distrust anything they hear and fact check all of it. I want them call BS on everyone. Every Republican and every Democrat.
Of course, they do all of this to Republicans and don’t even realize it. They think they are being fair, they think they are fighting the system. But all they’re doing is advancing their own political ideology and that of their radical, J-school professor.
Even in the midst of this unprecedented crisis, they can’t help themselves. Obama literally ran on “Hope and Change,” yet suddenly Trump peddles unsubstantiated hope. I’ve spent years grumbling about the media and I know it will never change.
Want to know why so many people cling to Trump no matter what? Because you assholes are worse than he is. I believe he’s really trying to do everything humanly possible right now to steer us out of this. What the the media do? Business as usual...OMB.
The Chinese Govt is running a disinformation campaign right now and might as well have most of the media on payroll the way they parrot their message. (They literally gave Hillary a shout out!)
The rest of the media is praising China for their leadership and quick recovery.
Jake (I love teh troops!) Tapper came right out and told us today he doesn’t even bother fact checking the other side because Trump lies too and OMB. Well fuck him and fuck all of them. Trump calls you out and we love it. He’s infinitely better than you.
Look at how many in the Bluecheck Brigade have gleefully noted the stock market crash and “how you like Trump’s economy now?!” BS. I know your financial well-being is in peril but holy shit you should’ve voted for Hillary! LOLOLOL🖕
Every press conference a Trump tries to stay positive and keep us updated. Not just with his words, but those of experts running things. Meanwhile, our firefighting asshole brigade wants to set traps and ask about the name he calls the virus.
They ask a ridiculous question, he responds, and then they pounce on the answer.

Do you like blue?
Well, I don’t really care. Blue is fine.
TRUMP CLEARLY HATES RED, HE TOOK NO OPPORTUNITY TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT ABOUT RED!!”
I spent years watching the media fawn over Obama as he lied day after day. Anything negative they minimized the criticized the right for “pouncing.” Anything positive they’d spend days praising him for. He could do no wrong. Contrast to now. Trump could cure cancer and they whine
As I scream into the ether. My wife laid off, now 75% of her company is too. My kids college accounts in tatters, my neighbors and coworkers worried...you turn on the news and you can’t even get a straight answer. 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
