Republican lies are destroying America. Their support of Fuhrer Donald Trump should alarm every real American. Trump has proven that he receives his instructions directly from Vladimir Putin. Think I’m wrong? Consider this.
For decades Putin has planned to destroy the United States of America. This villain and enemy of America is very smart. He is aware that a nuclear confrontation is unwinnable. He doesn’t want to destroy the land, he seeks the end of democracy. To accomplish this is easier than you might think, but he needed a willing accomplice.
First, alienate America’s allies; Trump has accomplished this already. Second, divide our nation’s people; once again, mission accomplished. And third; destroy America’s  economy; it is very clear Trump has taken the right steps to do just that.
Republicans are the enemy of the American people and the Constitution. They are bowing to Trump’s every destructive command. The media is misrepresenting this fact and protecting right-wing politicians. The truth is; they are lying to you and me.
When Trump is called “different” the media is refusing to use the word which accurately describes him; “liar.” Starting with the facts, and then twisting reality and making Republicans appear less vile is another tactic which protects the Trump Party. Recently the New York Times reported multiple instances when the right-wing lied about abortion, pointing to Alabama’s unconstitutional law banning all abortions. But then it deleted some of the original information and wrote: “With grisly claims that Democrats promote ‘birth day abortions’ and are ‘the party of death,’ Republicans are employing unusually forceful messaging on abortion that has created challenges Democrats did not expect.”
“Challenges Democrats did not expect?” This truth is, this is not a political issue; it’s a women’s rights issue. There is only one reason why it became a political issue; the Christian religious right owns GOP politicians. And the media is complicit.
The media holds Trump to the lowest possible standard, and he is aware of that fact. “Unusually forceful messaging” is an unusually crappy translation of “blatant falsehoods.” Also “grisly claims” is a shoddy translation of “grotesque lies.”
I’ve said it many times, and I must say it again; I have promised you, the reader, the truth. If Trump’s lips are moving or his thumbs are pecking, he’s lying. The same could be said about the entire Trump Party.
The first amendment guarantees a “free press.” With that guarantee comes an unwritten requirement. The fourth estate is required to tell the truth, and not just a part of it; all of it. If the media had reported the facts accurately during the 2016 campaign, Trump would not be defiling the White House today.
Trump wasn’t “unusual,” “different,” or “defiant,” he was a liar, a racist, a sexual predator, ignorant, boastful, and undoubtedly colluded with Vladimir Putin. The media gave the worst candidate in history a free pass while holding Hillary Clinton to the highest standard in the history of American reelections.
I ceased watching television “news” on November 9^th, 2016. I refuse to allow millionaires to lie to me. All television news personalities are paid far more money than they are worth.
I believe nothing until I have checked the source or sources. You should do the same.
Tell everyone; “The Truth Lives Here.”
