Q: Selective reporting beat up or just a Goose ?

We hear how the media play a big part in politics bringing to light to issues .
however the media isn't always as Neutral as they make out to be.
Lets take our favorite topic ...The media did selectively edited comments by Trump during the presidential campaign trying to sure up support for Hillary Clinton.
Yet he still one (still get a giggle thinking about it )
Why did he get elected?
apparently nobody wanted him to win yet here he is in the top job.Is he really that big a Goose as those who voted for him ?
or where the ones with the big voices to lazy to vote ? (all talk an no action).
Anyway....is it all a beat up or is the Guy just a Goose?

Maybe ordinary people were tired of being patronised by smug coastal elites (e.g. celebs/media/lifelong politicians who never had real jobs) who consider them racist/homophobic/misogynist white trash and decided to support the man whom said elites were viciously slandering every day. Maybe.

The best part is if they don't figure this out and change, they will repeat the mistake in the next election, I certainly hope so, I have always said, never shut down a progressive liberal snob, buy more microphones and cameras and volunteer to record their words of wisdom at every opportunity, they really are their own worst enemy. While they may be a hypocrite and want to silence conservatives, conservatives love for them talk and protest and demonstrate. Hard working Americans just get a warm fuzzy feeling of love and adoration for non productive, whiny snowflakes burning cars and tearing up private property that some body worked hard to pay for. Yes thats the way to change hearts and minds. God made liberals for entertainment in our boring lives. The real funny part of this how they think it's the evil white man and they haven't figured out that other minorities want opportunity and education and advancement and not a hand out. The bradley effect just kicked their ass. Many educated people lied to the pollsters because they did not want to labelled a bigot, just like obama's great poll numbers. I hope the left never figures this shit out and since they can never be wrong and it's us dumb americans that don't know what is good for us, i'm pretty confident things will get better and the left will continue to disintegrate, it's been long overdue.

you should check out the youtube videos of all the actors, reporters, etc that said he would never be elected. it is really entertaining with good single malt scotch and someone giving you a "lewinski" and a fine cuban cigar.

 

life could never be better.

He talked to people directly and addressed issues that were important to them. Trade (jobs) and immigration. Republicans and Democrats have been ignoring or just plain BSing Americans' concerns for over 20 years.

Let's look at Hilary's campaign; Environmentalism over jobs,siding with blacklives matter.cheating to defeat Bernie, money trail involving the Clinton foundation, beef with Russia. I'm not going to go over all of them. Hilary ignored middle America's legitimate concerns about JOBS , we are losing through immigration and trade. Her mouthpieces just went on TV saying the dumbest things like Moore and Maur saying the ethnic makeup of the country needs to change and deal with it white people and job loss due to environmentalism is ok. Liberals are elitist in their attitudes. Working people would rather not care about the environment than be jobless. 

So basically , Hilary's loss had nothing to do with selective reporting, Trump's a dumb lying piece of shit but Americans are too desperate and dumb to care/ notice.

Lying? So far he has been doing everything he promised to do. And that's only within in the first few weeks. Who knows how many leftist sacred cows he'll knock down in his first year alone.

He lied about how many jobs that were saved in the Carrier deal. He lied about Obama never mentioning Russian involvement in the hacking prior to the election. He lied about unemployment numbers saying they're more than 40%, He even lies about dumb shit like how many showed up to his inauguration. He is going about his Muslim ban in a way that will a way that will be overturned.  He could have easily done it the legal.

And just off the top of my head, he also has backed down on taking down Clinton... As mentioned by Engles, Trump has been making up shit in relation to 'saving jobs' by various companies apparently 'not' moving to Mexico (even though the companies themselves have said what he's said is crap)...

Trump spoke to the Yangist in the working class of America... and it responded! Throw in a stack of hate and blame... and he won.

 

 

(No, I'm not saying the Democrats are saints - clearly not.. Hilary would probably have been worse for the rest of the world's security - but at least there is some idea that the future actually needs to be considered now!!!)

   One buzz word in today's business world is MARKETING. However, people often ask for a simple explanation of "Marketing." Well, here it is: ___________________________________________________________   - You're a woman and you see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and say, "I'm fantastic in bed." That's Direct Marketing. ___________________________________________________________ - You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a handsome guy. One of your friends goes up to him and, pointing at you, says, "She's fantastic in bed." That's Advertising. ____________________________________________________________   - You see a handsome guy at a party. You go up to him and get his telephone number. The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm fantastic in bed." That's Telemarketing. ____________________________________________________________   -You see a guy at a party; you straighten your dress. You walk up to him and pour him a drink. You say, "May I?" and reach up to straighten his tie, brushing your breast lightly against his arm, and then say, "By the way, I'm fantastic in bed." That's Public Relations. ____________________________________________________________ -You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He walks up to you and says, "I hear you're fantastic in bed." That's Brand Recognition. ___________________________________________________________ -You're at a party and see a handsome guy. He fancies you, but you talk him into going home with your friend. That's a Sales Rep. ______________________________ __________________________ -Your friend can't satisfy him so he calls you. That's Tech Support. ___________________________________________________________   -You're on your way to a party when you realize that there could be handsome men in all these houses you're passing. So you climb onto the roof of one situated towards the center and shout at the top of your lungs, "I'm fantastic in bed!" That's Facebook. ___________________________________________________________ -You are at a party; this attractive older man walks up to you and grabs your pussy. That's Donald Trump. _____________________________________________________   -You didn't mind it, but twenty years later your attorney decides you were offended and you are awarded a settlement. That's America! ____________________________________________________

Shining, I'm not saying it's right or wrong but that is a concern to many. And Shining, have you ever been poor and lived paycheck to paycheck with 0 savings and/ or debt? I understand that thinking, because if my family ain't eating today who cares about whether the earth is here 20 years from now!
