the media vs Trump is similar to the media vs Pelini

the media's job is not to take a side and wage a fight against someone

just because Trump and Pelini don't want to play nice with the media doesn't mean the media has to stoop to their level and fight

but obviously, the media doesn't need to stoop very far because they are scum

I dislike Trump and it has nothing to do with the media.

I don't get this line of logic:


  • POTUS does/says something horrible.
  • The media points to it and says "WTF???"
  • POTUS claims the media is attacking him and has it out for him.
  • POTUS' supporters hears are all aflutter because "at least he fights back". 

Trump could have avoided a lot of the media attacks by, you know, being a genuine empathetic human being who acts like the President, not a tabloid editor.

Although I totally agree with this, he also could have avoided a lot of the media attacks by being a liberal Democrat.

I do agree with that. I think much of the left would just be silently horrified in that case, like much of the right is now.

POTUS helps bring peace to the Middle East
Media largely ignores it
Media runs fake news like POTUS hates the military
Media runs fake news like POTUS should have acted quicker to stop the virus
Media promotes Russian hoax
Yes Trump does fight back

I could list at least 20 fake news stores here but just dont have the time

I agree, but I also think he would never have been elected President were that the case.  The Folks  were apparently looking for someone who would fight.

We'll see soon enough if They like what they got.

I have that beat.

Don't live where wildfires are an annual occurrence.  
Don't live in flood plains.
Don't live in tornado alleys.  
Don't live on fault lines.
Don't live below sea level near the sea.


Oh wait.....the smartest monkey is too stupid to do those.

Most of the land area of the country is subject to some sort of malady, droughts, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, fires, heat waves, extreme cold ...

I think the main risk around here is tornadoes.  This might be close to as good as it gets.

Where should we live? 

I'd add "don't live in the desert where you can't survive without outside water and the electricity to have air conditioning".
