Media misses the big story
by Don Surber
It is the story of their lifetimes, and the journalists are blowing it -- bigly.
A billionaire playboy comes down from his three-story penthouse apartment overlooking Manhattan to enter the presidential race. He is a world figure, best-selling author, TV star, and ladies man. He offers himself as a tonic to the national morass, and an alternative to selecting another President Bush or Clinton.
That is a fantastic story. America replaced an affirmative action hire with a competent businessman. While our real-life Batman may have been born a millionaire, he worked to expand his fortune 1,000-fold -- just like the Bruce Wayne of fiction.
How did the leading "conservative" periodical play it? "Witless Ape Rides Escalator" read the National Review headline. And media coverage after that was all downhill. The part of the country that still believes in the media is convinced that it is run by a bumbling Hitler who just got lucky on the economy and on avoiding World War 3 three or four times now.
Among the ever-shrinking minority of Americans who believe what they see on TV, President Donald John Trump is an impulsive, juvenile puppet of Vlad Putin who is "in bed by 6.30 pm, watching his three televisions, eating a cheeseburger and making telephone calls to friends and confidants."
How did we get such a president? The TV believers say this was the work of those deplorable white people without a college degree who elected him.
But if he is so unqualified, how could we have the best economy in 50 years? The TV believers credit Obama. They never quite explain why Obama did not achieve this while he was president.
However, reality is stranger than the talking point fiction. Obama turned the FBI into a KGB that spied on Donald Trump and his campaign. This was Watergate on steroids -- and likely modus operandi for Obama.
Sara Carter reported, "Was President Donald Trump’s short term campaign foreign policy volunteer Carter Page set up by an FBI informant or the informant’s handler at the FBI?
Also said. "Page became the target of some of very corrupted officials within the agencies he had assisted in the past. They did this to target President Donald Trump."
The media deliberately ignores the largest scandal in American history in part because their multi-national conglomerate owners fear retribution once Democrats regain power. To be a journalist in Washington often requires one to lie.
Despite Obama throwing the intelligence community at Donald Trump, Batman beat the Joker, aka Hillary. And he did so despite her spending twice as much money. His was a small band of rebels who took on the establishment.
Tearing down empires is the story of President Trump. He vanquished and converted the Republican Party to suit his purposes. He is doing the same against the Democrat Party, and he also is taking on the media.
This is a man of derring do who would, if necessary, row across a frozen Delaware River on Christmas night to attack a drunk and sleeping enemy. In a later time, I could see him leading 16 bombers with a range of 1,300 miles on a 2,400 mile excursion over Japan. I certainly have seen him approve sending a dog to chase the top terrorist leader in the world down a rathole where he killed himself and his children.
Americans are said to lack the discipline to be soldiers, but what Americans lack in spit and polish, they make up in grit and daring.
Is there a more American president? He is trying to end wars, to cut trade deals, and to make America great again -- for everyone, not just the elitists.
These are the best years the United States has had since Ronald Wilson Reagan was president, and if you were dumb enough to believe everything that you see on TV, you would think we were in an economic collapse and on the brink of war.
Maybe if the media stopped sucking up to Democrats long enough, they would notice that we are making America great again.
