Regardless of who wins the election, there will be books written on how the press has influenced this election. The incredible double standard and how the press can be charmed by a "TV Star".
For example, look at the "birtherism over" Press conference Trump gave. First there was a 25 minute infomercial on Trump's new hotel. Then there was the parade of the Medal Of Honor winners. You know some of those guys might have been POW's at one time or another. Yet Trump said he didn't have respect for soldiers that were captured. They didn't fit his definition of "hero". And the press never asked for clarification.
The Trump Foundation bribery payoff was known nearly 5 months ago and only recently, received some press coverage that has pretty much died off.
Putin is a despot. It's estimated that between 30 and 40 journalists have been murdered over the last couple of years for saying something unfavorable about Mr. Putin. He has invaded the Ukraine, annexed the Crimea and attacked Georgia. Not to mention the many, many political rivals that have died every way from poison to shootings to simply mysteriously disappeared. He has cyber attacked this country again and again and Trump knew nothing about any of it, but admires Putin as a great leader. Trump even invited Putin to cyber attack this country even more. And how has the press reported on any of this? Just a casual mention if at all.
Mr. Trump owes hundreds of millions to countries hostile to the American way of life including China and Russia. Not to mention the hundreds of millions he owes to Wall Street. Where is the Press?
The Freedom Kids filed a $15,000.00 lawsuit after being stiffed by the Trump Campaign after they made a huge splash at a Trump Rally. Imagine if Democrats stiffed four little girls. Where is the press?
Trump has used hundreds of illegals, stiffed hundreds of American workers, has had over 169 Federal Lawsuits against him and has had to pay an unknown amount of fines. Why Unknown? The press refused to investigate.
The Indiana Judge Trump hates? Why does Trump hate that judge? Because he refused to dismiss the Trump U lawsuit alleging that Trump scammed veterans and the elderly and others through Fraud and Racketeering. The court date, win or lose, is set for Nov. 28th and Trump has to attend. If Trump loses, it opens Trump up for criminal charges. He could be in office a very short time. But where is the press? Most people don't even know he's going to court or for what.
Trump has not released his Tax Returns. If they were released, he could disprove the allegations that he hasn't made a charity donation since 2008 (Clinton's give 15% of their income to charity). Whether the Trump Foundation paid the 25 thousand dollar bribe to the AG of Florida and the 35 thousand bribe to the AG of Texas. Of where the five hundred thousand given by NBC went. Whether the painting actually cost twenty thousand dollars paid for by the Trump Foundation. Where is the press?
And the new birther thing? The vast majority of Republicans have bought into the nonsense that Obama wasn't born here. By harping on that nonsense, it's only helping Trump. His supporters believe he is only saying what the main stream media is forcing him to say, but he really believes Obama wasn't born here.
And look at Hillary. 30 years of Republicans using unlimited Tax Payer money to go after her. The DOJ has nearly 50,000 of her emails when Powell and Rice turned over zero. Her Tax Returns for the last 40 years are on line. Clinton Foundation financials are on line. It's not even required by law the Clinton Foundation release it's donors, but they did it anyway. The Clintons get no money from their Foundation. It has an A rating. She has been paid by Wall Street for speeches. They paid her but unlike Trump, she owes them nothing. Her list of accomplishments are amazing. She has served this country again and again.
And what does the media say? She heard sniper fire. She's untrustworthy. She's secretive. Repeating it again and again.
Compared to Trump, she's an open book. But the press has given the exact opposite view.
And right now, Trump is giving another of his hate speeches. Child rape, murder, Police killed, parading people up on stage so he can point out how dangerous blacks and Latinos are. And the press is broadcasting every single minute of it. And yet, except for broadcasting it, the press is barred from the news conference. It's not a news conference. It's a show.
Trump talking about criminals, when just the bribes given to the AG of Florida possibly proves Trump really is a criminal. The loss of the discrimination lawsuits. Losing court cases for stiffing his employees. Stiffing the Freedom Kids. And Trump is the "good guy".
The hidden code speech with the Alt Right. The refusal of the press to go after him for his refusal to deny the most racist elements in the country.
There is a very real possibility of a Trump Presidency. The press has gone out of it's way to ruin Hillary Clinton. You can even name names.
Chuck Todd
Katie Tur
Thomas Roberts
Mika Brzezinski
Anderson Cooper
Joe Scarborough
and many others.
These people go on and on about what Trump needs to do to win while repeating again and again how untrustworthy Hillary Clinton is.
This presidential contest will be THE test case of the media guiding the country into a presidential decision.
I'm telling you. Books will be written on this. Whoever wins or loses, the press will be held accountable.
