I don't expect you to see that the media is overwhelmingly controlled by the left. Of course you wouldn't. Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

You didn't answer my question, you avoided it.

What you're insinuating is that the answer to "media overwhelmingly controlled by the left" is to blindly trust trump and only trump to lead the most powerful nation on the planet.

You don't think trusting anyone that much is a bit naive at the very least?

I mean, let's take something in the public record that's fact, with no way to spin it since he released it himself on his own media: Trump did a marketing plug for tesla.

No other president in our long history has ever stooped so low as to call on Americans to bolster a brand to try and patch rapidly falling stock of a private citizen, because there's a certain amount of respect expected from the highest office in the land.

And that's just the most recent thing he's done, not even touching on his direct and repeating statements about annexing Canada, Panama, and Greenland, who have all always been our allies. Again, all things that he said directly into various cameras, not spun by media.

I, for one, don't care what you think about who controls the media. Trump has shown me himself why I can't trust him.

And if you do solely because you're scared of the media manipulating you, it kind of sounds like you're letting trump manipulate you too instead of thinking for yourself.

Wait wait so you're saying everything was great with Biden in office? You don't know this but everyone was taking advantage of us. Every country, enemies and allies alike. That's what happens when you have weak leadership. Were your eyes closed when Biden repeatedly stumbled and looked lost on the stage? Were you watching when he chopped up words that should have easily read on the teleprompters? He even included saying "pause" in his speeches. He also fell asleep on multiple occasions. It was a complete disaster of a presidency and America was completely lost with no actual leaders. Many Americans got into credit card debt for the first time ever. Trans activists were dominating female sports. Kids were getting the worse education and ranked very low worldwide. The borders were basically open for illegal criminals to go right through and crime was rampant in the maior cities. 2 new wars started. Interest rates skyrocketed so no one could really buy a new home. Inflation and gas prices also went way higher than usual. Racial division was higher than ever. Racist DEI policies that judge people by their race, gender or sexuality were taking over and less than qualified individuals were in positions that they shouldn't have been. So ask yourself who's being manipulated?

Strawman: u/Zeremxi did not say that.

Biden was a terrible candidate, I'll give you that.

So the obvious candidate that would be better for this country is Trump. Put your opinions or biases aside. Our country is safer with a strong president who is tough on illegal immigration and crime. He's also tougher on our enemies and terrorists who have been playing footsie during the Biden administration.

Is he though? Or do you not realize you're parroting talking points from republican billionaire owned media?

u/Feeling-Dinner-8667 15d ago

Too bad the majority of the billionaire owned media is on the left. More Americans distrust the media more than ever.

The majority of billionaire owned media is left, so my billionaire owned media is good!

Do you hear yourself?

Do you think I trust mainstream media? You've been trying to put those words in my mouth pretty much this entire conversation, and you don't get that what I'm trying to tell you is that none of them are trustworthy and you're just parroting the talking points of the other one.

In any case, whatever you have to tell yourself. At this point you've planted your fingers firmly in your ears and there is literally nothing I can say to you that might get you to reconsider.

I'm out.
