In a rare interview, talk show legend Phil Donahue appeared on CNN’s Reliable Sources today to discuss the things the mainstream media has gotten wrong or missed when it comes to the reasons why Donald Trump was elected president.

“I think the mainstream media, it’s Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump,” Donahue told host Brian Stelter. “They haven’t drilled down on why is he president? How did this happen? I think they’re going to discover, well, I think it’s already revealed. These are angry people.”

The retired talk show host went on to point out that it wasn’t really 46% of the people who voted for Trump — his popular vote percentage — but more like 19% of the country, when taking into account all of the people who didn’t even bother to vote. “Apathy is killing us,” he noted.

After talking about how he would’ve loved to have Trump as a guest on his show and how the resistance against Trump right now is a “hell of a story,” Donahue concluded by stating that mainstream media is largely at fault for Trump’s victory.

And in doing so, he references the infamous Access Hollywood tape, preferring to spell out a certain word:

1. FUCK these "angry people"

I was angry too, about a lot of things - NO ONE THINKS CONGRESS DOES A GREAT JOB - the difference with the left is that WE DID NOT THINK A LYING, PUSSY-GRABBING BUFFOON WAS THE FUCKING ANSWER.

ONLY FUCKING IDIOTS THOUGHT TRUMP WAS THE ANSWER.

6. This is a fact.

Media purposely creates the unlevel playing field in many ways. Access to media. Being attack outrageously. Harping on the nothing. Letting Republicans not follow the rules.

10. True.

They wanted their share of airtime in order to sell commercial time.

Therefore, Lies = Truth. Same thing.

7. msm will never look to themselves just as with iraq war

And their failure in how that was reported.

The internet and smaller right wing media was bad as usual.

But the msm normalized him.
