Here, an instance of media, in the "immigrants are taking your jobs" category. It demonizes Tyson while conveniently ignoring that Republicans haven't done a damn thing for labor in my lifetime.
I do not have the spoons necessary to bring you up to speed on everything that's happened in politics in the past few decades that you should already know. Honestly, I feel like I'm getting sealioned here.
Fox News is your instance? Yes, the network that has Trump's back all the time still has Trump's back.
Fox News is one media outlet and mostly, again, one that the MAGA faithful consume.
And even then- they aired the debate. People heard the fact check.
And those people are being told that the moderators were lugenpresse who were on the wrong side and want to protect criminals over your dog as part of their something something woke. The fact that the lamestream media keeps talking about how false it is and going to increasingly desperate lengths to deny it must mean we're onto them.
This is how the propaganda works. This is such a blatant lie that it should be a simple fact-check, but since that doesn't actually change anyone's mind all the attempt does is keep everyone talking about immigration, an issue that fires up the right-wing base and exhausts a lot of their opponents. You're absolutely right that we shouldn't be still talking about whether this is true or not, but focusing on how weird and dumb this conspiracy theory is getting. That's why the "weirdo" tack has been working for Harris in this campaign, and it's unfortunate that the headlines have lost interest.
Yes, again, those are the MAGA faithful. Trump needs more than them to win.
I didn't think I'd get to use this again so quickly:
He just needs to lose by a small margin. And that's absolutely possible no matter what Fox News tells his fans.
Sure. And then we continue with the "stolen election" bullshit, and Republicans still win other elections in Congress and state races. There's more here than just whether the president has a little D or R next to their name.
We were specifically talking about Trump.
It's not exclusive to Trump. The post itself is about Vance.
