Why America is being divided...helped by biased MSM

[healthmyths]

My Generation X son represents the dilemma America and the rest of the world will have, for a long time after my 83 years are done!
His changing attitude was triggered by Trump's apparent lack of concern about the Ukraine from which my son's over 22 years of marriage to his Ukrainian wife.
While I've thought long before my son's negative Trump position that Trump is an asshole. A braggart. All the negatives I don't like, I still voted for Trump and
believe the asshole loves America..(He's donated his salary as President as only 2 other Presidents have done..

He loves the military, law enforcement, his family and America!
He is NOT a politically correct President. He sees things that should be done and tries to get it done and in a lot of situations has done so!

But the headline is how the biased MSM has influenced people like my son to take these personal foibles of Trump as the basis for dislike as President.
Now I've a few years left during which the demise of America will not occur...but with the Generation X and others NOT aware of how the BIASED MSM's OPINIONS
are the primary value of the 5 "Ws" I learned in the 1960s college journalism courses. "Who, What, Where, When and Why" were how news stories were written.
The personal opinions were to be done on the "EDITORIAL PAGE"!!!!
But today the biased MSM that donated 96% to Hillary and 90% to Biden continued with their biased news stories. ICE headlines perfect example!
The headline search "ICE shoots woman after she drives into ICE agent About 154,000,000
" Woman drives into ICE agent and ICE shoots her" About 50,900,000 results nearly 3 times LESS than above headline!
So folks why didn't the MSM use the 2nd headline? Because the attention span of average human is less than 10 seconds so which story is remembered FIRST!

Attention spans are dropping, research shows: Here’s how to help keep focused

Consequently our biased MSM has influenced people like my son who are staunch American factors believer to now think the USA is going to hell and he maybe moving out of the
country! How sad that this biased MSM is influencing more Americans to do just that!
Approximately
21% to 40% of Americans have considered or desire to move to another country, according to 2024–2025 polling,
During the 1950s and 1960s, approximately 5% to 6% of Americans expressed a desire to live in another country.
This percentage remained relatively low throughout that period, only rising to 13% in 1972

Desire to Move Out of The Country Has Tripled Since 1974 | Polling Institute

Or, they're looking at what has happened to America.

Maybe they've seen what many Republicans and former Trump generals, lawyers, cabinet members and staffers have said about him, and don't want to live in a country he's so aggressively controlling.

Or they see so many so-called Christians showing no empathy, decency or sympathy for people who are hurting, and who have sold their soul to a man who is essentially the opposite of Jesus and don't want to be a part of that either.

Or they look at a President who gets his jollies by posting animated videos of him literally shitting on Americans, who insults and mocks everyone (including our former overseas friends) and feel they simply don't have a place here.

I know MAGA can't look in the mirror, but they don't have to. Many young, smart, talented American people are looking at them and leaving. I know that's good news for MAGA, who want purity in their miserable ignorance.

Anyone that voted for Trump is getting pretty much what they voted for....A rare thing these days.

Many celebrities have threatened to leave--and a few have. Most notable recently, Ellen Degenerate and after just a couple years she is back--I guess the UK wasn't all that it was TRUMPED up to be--pun intended.

Why America is being divided...helped by biased MSM​

Well it has jack shit to do about the things politicians claim it does like climate change or sicko trans perverts etc.

>>> It's about the MONEY. <<<

Specifically who controls the $7 TRILLION DOLLARS in government spending up for grabs each year. So little time, so much graft and bribes to organize.

That's $7,000 BILLLION or $13 BILLION for each of the 535 members of congress.

And let's be honest, over the 5,000+ years of human history...yeah it's been about the money.

 

[Dorian Mode]

Does anyone have any idea how dangerous a united population would be to a corrupt government? If the left and right ever agreed on getting corruption out of the government you can bet that is the day the constitution is cancelled.

President who gets his jollies by posting animated videos of him literally shitting on Americans

YOU are 100% correct that Trump got his jollies! Remember I said I don't like his personality etc. and his responses to these childish protestors was one
Key Details of the Incident:

• Context: The video was posted following nationwide "No Kings" protests against his administration.
• Content: The 19-second AI video showed a crowned Trump flying over Times Square, with brown sludge falling on people, including a representation of a liberal influencer.
• Reaction: The video was widely criticized by opponents as "disgusting" and a sign of disrespect for public dissent. Conversely, House Speaker Mike Johnson defended the post, characterizing it as "satire" and "using social media to make a point".
• Usage: This was part of a broader, increasing use of AI-generated content by Trump in 2025 to mock critics and create political memes.

The incident drew international attention, with critics noting it represented a "dangerous" use of digital, AI-generated imagery to target political opponents.
A good example of his "politically incorrect" behavior.
At the same time though Trump has done some things NO other president even attempted to do!
"The policy aims to isolate the Cuban government while, according to The Guardian, the U.S. seeks to compel a political shift on the island. "

US is in talks with Cuban leadership, says Trump, after blockade threats

US president announces efforts being made to strike a deal having earlier threatened to stop island importing oil

Finally a couple of observations...
A) you must be a gen Xer as you obviously have had multiple sources, i.e. TV, Radio, Internet to news... that I at in my 80s, TV was just starting hence the news was not opinionated except on "editorial page"!
The vast majority of news came from newspapers, then radio, then TV and each time more and more so called "journalists" began spending more time on the "Why" most time their personal opinions!
B) You provided little if any substantiation, which I find suspicious of any of your personal comments!

Oh I don't disagree that politics is the major contributor... Look at ....Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.).
Omar’s net worth skyrocketed in the last year, and House Oversight Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) recently told the New York Post that he plans to launch an investigation into what caused the dramatic spike.

According to financial disclosures filed last year, Omar’s net worth principally increased due to her spouse — and not her work with the government. She disclosed her spouse having stakes worth collectively between $6 million and $30 million in a venture capital firm and a winery.."
