CNN Sucks!!!

[ssu]

Oh the Phoenix Speech?

Pure 100% Trump. The man.

Conveniently forgetting totally what actually lead the outrage in the first Place: his reference to "Many Sides". Which was the whole thing. Typical Trump.

So here is my first statement when I heard about Charlottesville -- and I have a home in Charlottesville, a lot of people don't know. Here's the first -- can't believe they haven't figured that one out yet. Now they know. Now they finally know. But I -- I just -- I don't want to bore you with this, but I -- it shows you how dishonest they are. And most of you know this anyway.

So here's what I said, really fast, here's what I said on Saturday: "We're closely following the terrible events unfolding in Charlottesville, Virginia" -- this is me speaking. We condemn in the strongest, possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence." That's me speaking on Saturday.

(APPLAUSE)

Right after the event.

(APPLAUSE)

So I'm condemning the strongest, possible terms, "egregious display," "hatred, bigotry and violence." OK, I think I can't do much better, right? OK. But they didn't want to put this on. They had it on initially, but then one day he talked (ph) -- he didn't say it fast enough. He didn't do it on time. Why did it take a day? He must be a racist. It took a day.

(BOOING)

Dishonest people. So here is -- here is me -- I hope they're showing how many people are in this room, but they won't. They don't even do that. The only time they show the crowds is when there's a disrupter or an anarchist in the room. I call them anarchists. Because, believe me, we have plenty of anarchists. They don't want to talk about the anarchists.

There are many sides, to pretend otherwise is asinine. To attack Trump for saying as much is even dumber.

Then he could have really said it then. Again. Wouldn't have been if he's trying to change things. And wouldn't have made things worse, actually.

And anyway, everybody understands that Trump is just looking after his base.

Perhaps Trump thinks that he cannot get support anywhere else other than from his base, that he cannot broaden his base, so just he is just sticking with that.

Actually one MSM commentator said it quite well when others were amazed at why he is bashing absolutely everybody in the GOP: "Trump wants to look like the anti-establishment candidate".

That he sure does. But does that mean nothing has to be done?

[StCapps]

There is nothing wrong with what Trump said after Charlottesville, nothing divisive, that's pure media spin, they are grasping at straws and you are falling for it. The media made things worse, not Trump. Get a grip.

Guys, I think it's time to talk about the fake news in the room.

What actually is CNN and how is it possible for a sitting president to be literally fighting with it?

I thought we held discussions about CNN in the Fake News thread

The media really ran wild with that story. Turns out that chick was a massive communist obeast who had a heart attack and died. They made it seem like she was a perfectly healthy, normal-sized young woman who was catipulted through the air by the Dodge of Peace. The image they showed with a chick on the hood of the car was a different woman. He definitely slammed into people, but none of them died.

I think its time CNN gets its due. Fake News emanates from multiple outlets. What is happening at CNN is a different animal and the POTUS is saying so.

The connection of CNN judicial correspondent and Fusion GPS, their online popularity and their international reach makes them a special subject.

Trump is telling you they are a special case. Is CNN really an independent news organization or are they a political weapon of the establishment?

[SuburbanFarmer]

Effective distraction remains effective.
