Was the "animals" meme the most dishonest media moment of the Trump presidency?

It was the most open goal Trump's kicked in so far. The score is like 128-0 btw

Not sure if it was the most despicable thing they have done.

Trump calling them out on it and a lot of them doubling down is certainly one of the dumber moments by the left and press.


How much red pilling this did can’t be estimated yet because this is still playing out. We have idiots like John Legend trying to defend MS13 and blame the US for creating them, which will turn off the middle and may make the remaining sane people on the left wonder how stupid their allies are.

One thing far leftists are definitely lacking in is self awareness

They seriously underestimate the intelligence of the American people

and the "big picture"

take this popular response that accompanies the "defend MS13" angle



oh ok, so you shouldn't call people Nazis then, right?

“But those people deserve it!”

Self awareness is not one of their strong suits.

The fish feeding incident was bad because they took a totally innocent event and tried to twist it into a negative against Trump.

This is exponentially worse. Anyone with a 3rd grade education would understand he was responding directly to comments about MS13.

CNN and liberal idiots on here are tired of being labeled fake news and clearly this was fabricated outrage on the level of the National Enquirer. CNN becomes more fake by the day and their plummeting ratings prove folks are sick of it.

Later yesterday, the liberal idiots on here were arguing that nobody was defending MS13.

Hell Legend not only defended them but then blamed their creation on the US. There it is....the good old liberal blame shift. MS13 isn't accountable for their rapes and murders because 40 years ago the US messed in South American politics so criminals today aren't animals. They are victims.

Yeah, liberalism is a disease and Trump Derangement Syndrome is real.

totally forgot about that. that one was more dishonest for sure, but it was so dishonest that it didn't get the traction this one did

i think the actual issue is that we allowed them to come here, they learned organized street crime, and we returned them. so our sin (as a government) was returning them to central american instead of allowing them to live here

The assumption is that half of the country will go along with whatever is it they are selling - no matter how extreme, and the other half are "deplorables" or "bitter clingers" incapable of formulating a non racist thought.

They have zero respect for the electorate.

Correct

PR campaigns can be very effective to change public opinion over the course of time. But if your beliefs are legitimately radical then you can't expect to throw it out there immediately and gain acceptance.

the "fake news" meme was a very powerful one during the Trump campaign

last night i posted with Hemphead about this. the cultural gatekeepers have NO IDEA how to handle Trump. they're used to "insider" types like Romney who want to be friends with the media and who won't challenge them publicly. Trump owns shite and doesn't even do the fake apology shite. he doubles down.

it's time to bring back Trump v. CNN memes!

It takes the cake.
