"Mainstream Media " Disgracing Itself
If Trump does run, the mainstream media will cover him just as if nothing ever happened. Its disgraceful.

Over the past 2 or 3 weeks there has been a veritable flood of mainstream media gushings about how the Republicans have gotten a "red wave'' going. This seems to be the overwhelming opinion even though polls in the most relevant states show senate races that are for all intents and purposes tied. 

What is going on?  

Well, for one thing, so called liberal bias in the media is basically a hoax. In the name of "fairness" much of the national media has bent over backwards to include the opinions of grifters, clowns, traitors and racists in favorable light in election stories. 

The GOP candidate for governor of Arizona , Kari Lake is on record saying she would decertify the results in the 2020 Arizona presidential election, and even more consequentially has refused to say she will accept the 2022 results in her own race if she loses. Yet the media is not tearing her to shreds as she deserves , the media is predicting she will win and marveling at what a smooth candidate she is. 

The media doesnt care whether or not our elections are in danger nor if we will elect fledgling authoritarians, they care about serving their corporate masters playing both sides of the political street. 

But my main emphasis here is on this article from Newsweek today

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/here-s-what-trump-will-do-if-he-wins-in-2024-according-to-kellyanne-conway/ar-AA13IeWd?ocid=winpstoreapp&cvid=f238739f177d4128d4e11ae2547baaa2

It's called "What Trump will do if he wins in 2024", and the article quotes former Trump lackey and "insider" Kelly Anne Conway. According to Conway Trump just wants to end inflation and secure the border, and Conway says he is well positioned to win.  The article also predicts a big senate majority for the Republicans after next week, and that Trump says everyone will be happy with his decision about 2024. 

What the Newsweek article does not have is one word about Trump trying to overthrow the US government after the last election. Not a word. It seems incredible, but its not. 

If Trump does run, the mainstream media will cover him just as if nothing ever happened. Its disgraceful.

If the media hasnt blackballed Trumpism by now, it never will. Edward R Murrow is rolling over in his grave.

It's not just Newsweek. I keep hearing people on various other news sources talking about the possibility of Trump running again in '24, but I have yet to hear anyone talking about how it shouldn't even be possible.

Apparently, as you say, a sitting president can attempt a coup and overthrow of the republic, and then run for office again as if nothing ever happened. It's madness.

I would like to hear someone, anyone, in the prominent media ask all their Republican interviewees one question - how can you even consider supporting Trump for president in 2024?   Ask them the question and make them give a clear concise answer. 

But its not only Republican politicians who need to be asked this blunt question, it is Trump voters and more importantly the mainstream media that needs to answer this question. 

Any "normalization" of Trump at this point, and it is plain as day that this normalization WILL happen, will be disgraceful, and as you say "madness".
