I’m feeling sick... not because of the ABC News poll that shows Donald Trump leading Biden, but because of how we got here: the corporate media refusing to do its fucking job.
It's 2016 all over again, when they
– Gave Donald free air time, all for ratings.
– Covered up his lies, financial swindling, and failures.
– Ignored Obama’s policy successes in favor of framing the entire election around Donald's preferred talking point that it was Hillary Clinton who was somehow the crook.
So, they got Donald Trump in the White House and the rest of us got 4 years of hell.
As we head into 2024, have they learned anything? No, they absolutely have not:
– Kristin Welker gave Donald 78 minutes of free air time during which he lied unchallenged. ABC just published a pro-Trump poll that even their partners at Washington Post say is an outlier... both raked in ratings and cash for it.
– Interviewers consistently let Donald run them over to cover up his alleged crimes, including a coup!
– Biden’s policy successes were ignored and the upcoming election was framed around Donald’s preferred talking point that it’s Joe Biden who is somehow the crook (don’t even get me started about the absurd narratives about Biden’s age).
We MUST NOT let the corporate media let him get away with this again.
