George Goebbels, I mean Stephanopoulos taking his marching orders and being public about it?

Huh, that's different. Or is it?

There's that "democracy is at risk!" again...


One day after President Biden implored the media to not treat the 2024 election like business as usual, ABC's George Stephanopoulos sternly told his audience on Sunday's "This Week" that this year was abnormal and a "test" for the media and the country.

In contrast with the show's usual style, Stephanopoulos began the program with remarks on former President Trump's legal troubles and how the 2024 election was testing the tenets of democracy. This followed Biden calling on members of the press to focus less on horse race politics and "rise up to the seriousness of the moment," in a sober conclusion to his speech at the White House correspondents' dinner on Saturday.

"Until now, no American president had ever faced a criminal trial," Stephanopoulos said. "No American president had ever faced a criminal indictment for retaining and concealing classified documents. No American president had ever faced a federal indictment or a state indictment for trying to overturn an election, or been named an unindicted co-conspirator in two other states for the same crime. No American president has faced hundreds of millions of dollars in fines for business fraud, defamation, and sexual abuse," Stephanopoulos began.


Stephanopoulos argued this election was not normal, and that it was easy for everyone to treat it as an ordinary race for the presidency when the "scale of the abnormality is so staggering."
 
He would have had you people not backed Trump.
So the media would have been grovelling over Haley is she was nominee? How about DeSantis?

I'm just a dumb Canadian and even I know how the media works. Big spending, big debt, big breaks for the major cities, that;s what they like.

"You people".

That's exactly this kind of sniffing, elitist snobbery that made Trump look like a better deal...Yet sniffing, elitist snobs like you keep it up.

This was all said in 2016 as well.
 
And the dems may have beat Trump with RFK Jr...
But Obama wants his 4th term to really pound in that nail...
The dems might have had a fighting chance with batshit Bernie....But they're a bunch of sniffing, elitist snobs, who hate the unwashed populists too.
