napkinz
(17,199 posts)Yep, she's one of the few. The rest of the media has been utterly derelict.

(17,199 posts)Rachel Maddow explains the political science behind the classic strongman political tactic of ginning up political violence in order for a politician to present that violence as a problem that needs to be solved.

AgadorSparticus
(7,963 posts)We have seen it for decades. If you repeat it enough, dumb people will believe it.
But with Trump, he has really been treated with kids gloves. He hasn't been taken to task for anything he had said or done. I don't get it. The media had really propped him up.

I wish I could make Trump watch these videos. What would he call these acts carried out by his supporters????
