The corporate media is treating the rise of Trump far different than they did BHO. They were in love with BHO and are hostile to Trump. You wouldn't argue much with that would you ?

To me, Trump is calling the press on their failures where he can, because he's the type of guy to fight back. Just that simple. Secondary to that, Trump is reaching out to those folks who don't understand Journalistic Ethics have been shit.
I don't disagree with you. On the DCF, I blasted my disgust at the media all throughout Obama's term. Obama is gone. Now we discuss Trump. I'm willing to discuss Trump's issues.... and his current issue is crowd size.

I'm trying to tell you that the man has to pick his battles. And you guys do too. You know the numbers don't lie. I can't seem to find a photo from Obama's point of view while taking the oath. Can anyone find one?

The pics look off, but Trump's is time stamped 11:04 while Obama's is from 11:30. I'd like to see Trump's at 11:30, also. We should be comparing apples to apples and I agree that it's dishonest to show pics from different times of day.

I have never in my life screamed "voter suppression." :lol: If you recall, I'm in favor of requiring an ID to vote and don't find any reasonable argument against my POV. Just stop, you are embarrassing yourself with all this fake opinion you keep trying to project onto me.

My Facebook feed is lit up with them reveling over the "tiny" inaugural address crowd. I'd say the lying fake news did it's intended purpose. You can confront these people with photos of the event, showing the crowds backed up all the way to the Washington Monument, but it's fruitless. They are programmed well.

They are still passing that fake news around as fact. It's really quite depressing how naive many friends truly are.

She won't respond to the crowd size clearly dwarfing her metro sales figures on that day. She is going to ignore that and pretend she is winning the argument somehow.

Can you post a photo showing the crowd goes all the way to the monument? The only photo I've seen shows the crowd thinning at the temporary press building, which is quite a distance from the monument.

I did Kath. It's been posted at least twice in this thread, and you just skipped right over it without comment.

Then there are:

Where, amazingly, you can travel to D.C. on an earlier day, book a room you are actually allowed to sleep in, and spend the additional days sight seeing before the inauguration -- you know, vacation stuff..

Road closures
Driving around the District will prove challenging — and not just on Inauguration Day, itself.

There are a significant number of road closures and parking restrictions cutting off main traffic arteries through D.C. Some of the restrictions begin two days before the inauguration itself and extend past Inauguration Day.

Explain that crowd size if metro sales are the end all be all of "real" numbers? There are 250,000 people in area just before the waterline alone.

You pass on and defend fake news so why shouldn't I get a little kinky with your opinion? Hard to be embrassed when you have been constantly and hungrily felaciating the MSM all last year up until now. You're taking up all the space.

See below:
No - I cannot see any crowd between the media buildings and the monument. It's blocked.

Use below for reference. The pic on the left is CLEARLY taken at an earlier time then the pic on the right. However, you can see the crowd beyond the press buildings.... show me the real picture from this POV.
