Everyone in the media knows Donald Trump has zero chance of being a viable candidate in 2024. Yet the entire media is conspiring with him to pretend he’s a lock for 2024. The media’s thirst for ratings has it conspiring with a traitor. That makes it a criminal conspiracy.
When Trump hints he'll run in 2024, the media has a RESPONSIBILITY to factually explain that he's just pretending he'll run so he can pocket the donations. Instead the media conspires with Trump to sell the lie that he's going to run.
When Trump says he'll pardon Capitol attackers, in an effort to convince them not to cooperate with federal investigators the media has a RESPONSIBILITY to point out no such pardons could ever happen. Instead the media conspires with Trump to pretend they'll be pardoned in 2025.
Trump and the media are conspiring in a manner that provides them both with fraudulently obtained financial gains – and it's a conspiracy that aims to directly interfere with a federal criminal investigation. The media is arguably committing felony obstruction of justice.
The Feds are not going to arrest the media for criminally conspiring with Trump. Nor should it, of course. But at this point the Trump and the media very much appear to meet the legal definition of criminal conspiracy and obstruction. Our media has become that destructively evil.
Again, Trump is NOT going to run in 2024 – and the media knows this. It’s not trying to get him elected. It knows that’s not a real thing. Instead the media is trying to milk the “Trump 2024” lie for ratings between now and when the 2024 election starts, which Trump won’t be in.
The media’s willingness to play along with Trump’s lie that he’s going to be able to pardon Capitol attackers, should be the last straw. The media is obstructing justice. You all like being outraged, so you should be outraged at the media – and pressure it to stop with its lies.

The creeps waving the Nazi flags are trying to get under your skin. If your reaction is to fret, lament, and talk about how all hope is lost, you're giving them exactly what they want. If you want to stick it to them, drive voter turnout in 2022 and defeat their Republican Party.
If we're smart we'll spend this entire election cycle demanding that every Republican candidate take a position on these Nazis. Any position they take, it'll cost them votes somewhere on their side of the fence. It's how this game is played.
Any Republican candidate who denounces these Nazis will lose votes on the far right. Any Republican candidate who refuses to denounce the Nazis will lose votes in the middle. It's a no-won situation for them. But only if we use it, instead of sitting around whining about Garland.

When Spotify chose Joe Rogan over Neil Young, the defeatists said "that's it, it's over, all is lost." Palmer Report said the battle was just starting, and it would come down to money. Spotify has since lost $4 billion in market value. Told you the battle is just getting started.
Spotify's executives and investors now have to try to figure out if the lost customers and stock price plunge are temporary or permanent, and if it's the latter, whether it'll be more costly than dumping Rogan would be.
People can talk all they want about Spotify's $100 million contract with Rogan, but that's not a huge amount of money in comparison to the overall market valuations companies this size. It would be expensive to dump him. But it may prove way more expensive to keep him.

The doomsday pundits love to insist that famous people never go to prison. But Trump pal Joe Exotic has lost his appeal and will serve a 21 year sentence. When famous people avoid prison it's by never getting indicted to begin with. Donald Trump is being indicted in two states.
How do wealthy and powerful people keep themselves from getting indicted?

1) They're so popular, no prosecutor wants to touch them

2) Unethical campaign donation to the district attorney – but this only works if the public does't know or care that the investigation even exists
But the Trump indictment process is out in the open and everyone is watching, so no opportunity to quietly pay off the DA and make it go away. And in places like New York and Atlanta where Trump is despised, prosecutors would be seen as heroes for indicting him.

Warned you that as audiences started to figure out Trump is going to prison, the media would escalate its bullshit. Sure enough, not only are they still pretending Trump is running in 2024, now they're pretending Biden is so unpopular he'd need a Republican VP to have a chance.
This has reached the point of laugh out loud nonsense. First, Biden is WAY more popular than Trump and would be the overwhelming 2024 favorite. Second, Biden would be forfeiting the election by ditching Kamala and picking a republican VP. The media knows this but hypes it anyway.
The media wants to chase ratings in 2022 and 2023 by pretending Trump will be a factor in 2024. It can't do that if the public figures out he's a goner. So the media is getting even louder about Trump 2024, to distract the public from the increasing clarity that Trump is toast.

One thing most liberal activists still haven't figured out: if you're whining, it means you're losing. If you're whining about unfairness, you're REALLY losing. The general public does not care about "unfairness" in politics. If you want to win, talk like a winner, not a whiner.
You can spend all day complaining that the republicans rammed through a last second Supreme Court pick after blocking Obama's attempt at a pick, and you have a point, but NO ONE OUT THERE WILL CARE. You're just complaining to hear the sound of your own voice.
If you want to win any given political fight, you have to win over the people out there who don't have a political side – and by default they'd rather not get involved. If you're just whining about the unfairness of some maneuver, they'll just tune you out, and you'll lose.

Andrew Yang set off my bullshit meter during the 2020 primary race when he started accusing the DNC and media of conspiring against his campaign (always a red flag). Now he says his imaginary new political party is “the party for positive masculinity.” Told you he was bad news.
If anything the media conspires against frontrunners, and props up less popular candidates, because it creates suspense and controversy and drives ratings.

When a low polling candidate blames the media for being unpopular, it’s never true, and means the candidate is dishonest.
And the DNC never conspires against anyone. The media just pushes that lie every election cycle in order to stir up controversy and ratings. And that lie actually benefits lower polling candidates – more proof that the media doesn’t conspiracy against unpopular candidates.
