Seems like someone’s got “an emotional attachment” to media reports about Government.
LOLLING!
All the Main Stream Media outlets are intertwined one way or the other. Journalism is basically dead it's all activist now. They are only telling viewers what they want them to hear not what they need to hear. They use all kinds of tactics.

I just listened to the tape. I assume it is unedited (see link below). Trump refers to the person who killed the student in Georgia calling him an animal. He then states that Pelosi has asked Trump to not call THEM animals (plural) and Trump says THEY (plural) are animals, meaning to me all immigrants.

There’s plenty to criticize Trump about, pretending not to understand his words isn’t really necessary.

I took the quote for what it said, not looking back at past Trump quotes. "Them" is not specific. You can assume whatever you want.This is another nothingburger.

Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXXWhen people talk in generalities rather than specifics it can lead to assumptions about what they are actually saying. In this case it becomes clear that he meant to call all immigrants animals but left it vague enough to deny it if needed. This is a pretty standard practice for Trump. Dog Whistling at its finest.

The base principle is simple - repeat a lie often enough and it becomes truth. Leastwise for the sheeple, aka the masses. Plus, it is super easy, because you hear the same thing from multiple sources at the same time, ergo - it must be true. Don't fall for it. While your head is a good place to sport a hat of your liking, it can also contain a functioning brain or brain stem in the case of the Demonicrats.
The media coordination and manipulation goes by many names.

What is extremely dangerous to our democracy is a Press that is sold out to the dictates of one political party..Yeah, verily. Remember when a fair and independent press was considered The Fourth Estate. Also, it was considered essential. Today, it's more like Pravda and part of the Deep State of unelected apparatchiks.
When our Founding Fathers included “freedom of the press” in our Bill of Rights,, they never envisioned a press taking its marching orders from one political entity.
In the old Soviet Union, it was Pravda. In the United States, it’s ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, The New York Times, Washington Post, ……..etc. Originally Posted by Jackie S
