The lying, liberal, biased press, the same people who
badly and intentionally missed the American public’s sentiment in the recent
presidential election, who failed to report the violent and criminal acts of
union thugs who attacked Donald Trump supporters at the command of Hillary and
the DNC, are still lying and not reporting the news, and instead continue to
encourage violence and rioting by young anti-Trump protesters. If there were
violent protests against Obama or Hillary the press would be red in the face
insisting that they stop and behave maturely. But since it’s Trump that is
being abused they have no problem with this “youthful exuberance” and actually
enjoy reporting on it.
But doesn’t the press have a responsibility to
encourage good citizenship and responsible behavior by all citizens, especially
with young people who are still learning how to act in public? Evidently our
friends in the press don’t believe that they have any such a responsibility,
because they are encouraging the rioting and siding with the rioters by simultaneously
declaring that the world is coming to an end because of the presidency of
Donald Trump.
The press happily reported Barack Obama’s declaration
that “I won” the vote in 2008 and his opinion that “elections have
consequences” which he thought gave him the right to disobey the constitution
and the written laws of the nation and issue destructive orders in line with
his promise to “fundamentally transform America”, and when he did succeed in
making America a failing place none of us had ever seen before, the press
reveled at his cleverness.
But Donald Trump had better never say “I won” or
indicate that he has leeway to act because “elections have consequences”,
because these statements only work one way: in a left-wise direction in which
the political left gets to set its own agenda and move swiftly to implement its
desired changes, but when the political right wins elections they must proceed cautiously
and slowly and not make any waves that the leftist press is not in favor of.
The press would be completely justified in giving some
leeway to the anti-Trump rioters and their tendency to be violent, if it would
remind its readers and viewers that the Hillary Clinton campaign set the
negative example for the youth of America by hiring unions to beat Trump
supporters and fire-bomb a Trump headquarters office in North Carolina. And
don’t forget the rigging of the Democrat presidential nomination process that
assured Hillary would win no matter how many Sanders supporters there were, nor
how enthusiastic those supporters were. Someone had better shake you and wake
you up if you think the press will ever report and condemn violence from a
Democrat candidate or her followers.
I don’t expect the press to do a complete about-face
and begin writing balanced articles telling the truth about both parties, because
that would be a break with tradition for the liberal press. But when people’s lives and property are at
risk the press could at least tell the rioters that what they are doing is
wrong and that they need to express themselves in a peaceful way, not like
professional Democrats behave.
Donald Trump
won the presidential election fair and square, and the left had better get used
to it because four years of a president you despise is a long time to fume, and
those of us who are not Obama fans can vouch for that fact (and no one I know
did anything violent to oppose Obama).
