How can a man who’s not even barely coherent insist anything? It’s understandable that his cult believes his every word - whether pronounced correctly or not - but the media? Does not the media depend on coherence?

I thought so, but they have been taken over by the MAGA billionaires

Yes, of course! What’s good for Bezos is good (only) for Trump/Musk and the Billionaire Boyz.

where have you been, Dave? Mainstream media has given him a pass for years. Every lie, every threat, every rant has been treated with reverance. They are complicit in the destruction of our democracy.

Yep. They have while doing their best to denigrate Joe and Kamala whilst giving Trump pass after pass after pass.. Their public capitulation has merely been the visible sign of submission. Our legacy media capitulated long ago.

No. The legacy media believes in profit. In order to keep viable and enjoy freedom from illegal harassment, they will grovel to the new regime. Look at Bezos, Zucker, the guy from the California paper, all the rest of the mainstream media. Remember how he kept talking about “fake news?” These have all gone over to the other side. It happened almost IMMEDIATELY! We have to stay plugged in to the alternative sources, support them as they are threatened. The Trump reich will stop at NOTHING.

Exactly. I don't subscribe to or consume legacy media in any form, but then that became true as I found alternate news sources like Robert Reich Mary L. Trump, Meidas+ and the totally awesome Tennessee Brando all of whom have Substacks BTW.
