I agree with you wholeheartedly, except for one crucial thing, the press. I don’t think we can expect for MSM to do the right thing. They are all corporatized and in it for the money.

I agree with you wholeheartedly, except for one crucial thing, the press. I don’t think we can expect for MSM to do the right thing. They are all corporatized and in it for the money. The lopsided coverage of Biden and Trump is frightening. I haven’t read anything by a reporter (NYT/WAPO) that has gotten down to brass tacks and described Trump as cruel or moronic, lacking intelligence (unless it’s the occasional opinion piece). There needs to be more serious reporting on the danger to democracy Trump poses and they’re not doing enough. It’s what worries me.
I don't know what's wrong with the Like button but I can never light it up.
In any case, I agree with you about the press as well!
I recently saw a list of TRUMP DONORS including the CEOs of ABC, NBC, MSNBC , CNN and CBS, New York Times, WaPo and WSJ: Every one of them! The MSM is IN TRUMP'S POCKET!
That's definitely part of it, but I also think security concerns also play a huge factor in the coverage. Hardly any outlet is covering Trump's constant pimping for stochastic terrorist attacks and the miasma of fear this has induced in politics and the media.
That would be some consolation. But it makes their political acumen very poor if they think any of them will survive the first six months of Project 2025.
Agreed! So many are so fearful to take a stand. Everyone who could make a difference are hedging. I hate having a front row seat to how societies fail.

That might be true if those CEOs cared about anything but their own wealth. I don't see signs of it. "Greed is good" is killing us.
History is littered with people who thought autocracy would just be bad for ‘those other folks’
I don’t get how big business feels a Trump presidency and autocracy will be ‘good for business’.
Big business is run by people who see no reason for History to be on the curriculum in college, especially in business and MBA programs.
It's not just the CEO's. It's threats across their entire outlets and at reporters and production staff.
They probably also donated to Biden. That’s what they do; play both sides hoping to curry favor, like the knights of olde.

me too
Those that go along with the New Order will survive. One or two examples will be plenty.
Not uncommon, they don't want him coming after them...lots of businesses donate to both sides...
