He ain't holding any one accountable. That requires verifiable, legitimate character and judgement. Sad.

yeah... and when he does, he just settles out of court.... bam! winning!

he obviously won against the NFL ... for a dollar.

The USFL didn't lose. It just chose not to play anymore.

dude cmon.

trump attacks the press for telling the truth.

obama went after fox news bc they straight up lie.

and then ofc theres the whole issue with degrees of magnitude. obama's rhetoric was never even close to trumps when, in actuality, foxnews and the like are enemies of democracy and our country. their lies and distortions have brainwashed so many ppl that we are on the verge of fascism and our civil rights are deteriorating rapidly.

Easy there, Donny.

it is quite clear that the right wing propaganda machine has successfully brainwashed this country.

Was just pointing out the irony of your statement.

I'm not sure you get what irony is.

If I tell a lie and then call you a liar, you pointing out that I'm lying isn't irony.

[Citation Needed]

Um, actually a guy talking about a news station being an enemy of democracy and our country, then lecturing about facism and civil rights is pretty much the definition of irony.

Throw in that he's using the same language as Donald Trump (aka Donny) and well, lol you.

Try again.

Does the news station contain content which can be related with fascism, anti-civil rights, and anti-democracy information and narratives?

if so, then why would would it ironic to refer to the news station as a 'fascist enemy of civil rights and democracy'? Is that just telling it like it is? Which is ironic considering Donald's claims of telling it like it is.

it seems that you think a news station is not able to be an enemy of democracy.

What's really hilarious is that Trump is beating the piss out of the left and they don't even realize it.

The public trust in the media is consistently dropping due to the tactics they use. They are literally killing their own business.

Hilarious, and I love it.

It's not sports though.

It's not. But what he's doing is masterful. He's literally making the American public distrust the media by letting the media turn up their own idiocy.

It's pure genius, and you guys don't even see it. He's checkmating you before you knew you were playing the game.

no, ppl realize it. thats why they are worried. thats why ppl are so critical of trump. that is why you hear so much about fascism. so much about how bad it is to attack independent media.

the trust in the media is dropping bc of lies, deceit, and distortion. bc of many years of propaganda. and bc of ppl's own biases that were created by years of brainwashing from right wing sources and politicians.

you love it bc you lack critical thinking ability and dont realize how incorrect the right is.

Unlikely. Destroying public trust is more known as unpredictable, dangerous, and foolish.

Lol, no. This is not accurate.

Let's do a quick test for everyone out there reading this thread. Quick : name one thing Donald Trump has done while in office so far that was good?

The vast majority of people out there will probably answer in their heads "nothing that I can think of... Lemme look some stuff up".

That's why he's winning. The media literally can't even save themselves because of the monster they have created. They literally can't write a positive article about Trump due to leftist outrage over EVERYTHING. If you are a writer for MSNBC and write a positive Trump article your career is in jeopardy, so you never even consider writing anything positive. We all know this yet MSNBC is powerless to overcome it.

Lololololol. HILARIOUS. You did this to YOURSELVES. Keep calling him a racist dictator, you are HELPING HIM.

He's doing this ON PURPOSE.

I certainly don't think Fox News qualifies as an enemy of democracy and our country (you original statement), which sounds exactly like the nonsense Trump was spouting...almost word for word.

Freedom of the press is kind of an important thing in America, perhaps thats news to you.

I also don't think news outlets that espouse the benefits of communism are a threat to our country and our democracy.

You all seem unhinged, honestly.

Destroying public trust while spreading fear and confusion is what can be seen has been done so far. It's on purpose?

Sounds like the purpose of someone who fails to have a complete and comprehensive understanding of human beings

A lot of media is doing quite well now because of Trump.

One of his favorite targets, the NYT, has their stock price up 37% since November. Subscriptions are way, way up.

I'm astonished at you people. I'm literally giving you the playbook. I'm telling you EXACTLY what he's doing and you guys put your head in the sand.

Amazing.

They don't think he's smart enough for that. They think he's just acting randomly without any thought. They can't imagine what his followers have going on in their heads, so they don't see the connection between Trump message and message received.

this makes no sense. like none. at all.

Im not gonna even try.

You mean the New York times that put out a full page apology to it's readers for recognizing its own bias? That NYT?

I have to see what's up with that, but public opinion is definitely swaying towards what Trump wants. He's kicking the lefts ass. Bad. I almost feel sorry for them.

Almost.
