Uhm, no. We’re where we’re at because of individuals. I could name them but I think that you know who they are, I hope.Merkin Baller said:

i agree. all of the free coverage in the 2016 campaign is the main reason why we are where we are. they started hammering him long after it was too late. i remember the hours of cnn showing an empty damn podium waiting for him to come speak at his rallies.Merkin Baller said:

"The media" reports on house fires while they burn.
Regardless of how your Aunt Karen may feel or what her opinion is, It doesn't make "the media" arsonists.

Only to a small degree. The 40% who support Trump no matter what are to blame. And the moderates like bill maher that insist we need to love that 40% despite the danger. Take my MIL, please
And the docs about macron are very concerning. Not exactly a trump ally and smells like taken for nefarious purposes

We’re talking about two different things. I don’t think the media absolves tfg of his wrong doing, but I also don’t think he succeeds in 2016 without their assistance, whether it was willing or not.ikiT said:Merkin Baller said:

Don's crimes are his own. It's time for him to be put into custody. He's a fucking traitor.The amount of time in 2016 spent talking about Hilary’s emails & Banghazi from the ‘liberal’ NYT alone defied logic. Now we have a situation where someone in a position of power is allegedly mishandling classified documents / information, and people can’t dismiss it quickly enough. I don’t understand it.0 -
It’s hard to imagine any of those docs WEREN’T taken for nefarious purposes. What’s more likely, he took them because he loves reading and increasing his knowledge, or he was selling the information contained within?Lerxst1992 said:Merkin Baller said:

Macron is not someone liked by trump, but putin is, right? Not a reach he wanted leverage over the liberal western alliance and macron is a helluve target when I consider all the major western leaders in office 2017 to 20210

And we can’t begin to know the amount of damage this has already caused among and between the US and its allies. These documents were accessible for a year and a half. They should subpoena the guest registry and start looking at who was at Mar-I-Lieo during that period and start calling them in for voluntary interviews.
If a grand jury determines a crime was committed, POOTWH should be charged, arrested, booked, deemed a flight risk and held pending trial. Let his attorneys convince a judge that he’ll be good on home confinement and put all of his properties up as collateral to guarantee he’ll show for trial and let the repubs freak out.

What are they supposed to do? They usually promote good journalism, but how do you retain that level of quality if you aren't making revenue to pay good journalists? Their only option would be to spam their content with ads. Fuck that. I pay for WaPo and it's not that expensive in my opinion. Most the "local" media these days is bought and paid for BS from right wing propogandists. It's polluting the minds of millions of rural citizens gobbling up Fox News and the like.gimmesometruth27 said:

Dude WaPo is bought and paid for by Bezos. And is tilted to pollute readers minds in favor of Bezos and his vanity projects like dick rockets.tbergs said:

Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. I know who owns WaPo. I guess I missed all the self promotion by Bezos or I've just browsed past it. I have read articles about Amazon where they include him being the owner, but it's not like it was some puff piece.static111 said:

They should subpoena the guest registry and start looking at who was at Mar-I-Lieo during that period and start calling them in for voluntary interviews.
If a grand jury determines a crime was committed, POOTWH should be charged, arrested, booked, deemed a flight risk and held pending trial. Let his attorneys convince a judge that he’ll be good on home confinement and put all of his properties up as collateral to guarantee he’ll show for trial and let the repubs freak out.
