Nothing matters to republicans except raw, unadulterated power and the preservation thereof. I'm not clutching any pearls over this. No doubt but it would have taken away a lot of the talking points the MAGAts are using now. And I think it also broke some non-MAGAt brains. You have people in this thread to this day blaming the media for talking about it because nothing came of it. Maybe I'm just a weirdo but I feel like the head of your country being personally aligned with an antagonistic state and openly siding with/supporting them often in opposition to your own intelligence agencies is worthy of some consternation. But because the Mueller probe didn't say it outright, people are mad at the media who made us aware of it and keep pointing out that something shady is going on.

In a normal world, or at least a slightly more ideal one, liberals wouldn't have spent two years joking about Trump serving Putin, which made it possible for most people to ignore every other aspect of the investigation into Russian election interference that came out after the wildly disingenuous Barr memo.

Serge 8,959 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 To be clear, I'm not blaming the media for people ignoring it. I'm blaming the media for connecting the Russian election interference at the hip with the conspiracy theory that Trump is a Manchurian candidate, which created the impression after the Mueller investigation that all of it is just more conspiracy ****. And I'm blaming the media for simply accepting that Trump's the stupidest man on Earth while he baited liberals and the media into pushing the conspiracy **** as if it were all the same story. I blame the media for the notion that Trump would have to be a genius for coming up with a strategy for covering his *** that would have suited a semi-serious cartoon Lex Luthor.

What reputable media organization said that Trump is a Manchurian candidate. The farthest I saw any legacy media outlet go is paint him as a useful idiot for Putin (which I feel most likely explanation). Downvote Don 1 Link to post Share on other sites

The farthest I saw any legacy media outlet go is paint him as a useful idiot for Putin (which I feel most likely explanation). I didn't say that they "said" he was a Manchurian candidate. They joked about it. It was such a given based on what was being said in the liberal media outlets that there was no perceived consequence for liberal talk show hosts, comedians, opinion columnists and regular people joking about how obvious it was. It was a joke with no payoff, of course, and neither the comedians nor the "serious" news people nor any of the normies could explain why it happened the way it did. And afterwards, no one conceded anything at all about the narrative that Trump was directly serving Putin, so the whole thing became a joke people were tired of hearing over and over.

Serge 8,959 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 If it sounds like I'm blaming the media for the specific, unforeseeable error of not realizing the danger of joking about the likely truth of something Trump himself was too stupid not to foreground at every conceivable opportunity, then you're almost right, except that it was actually the most foreseeable possible outcome if you weren't starting with the assumption that Trump's too stupid to realize how suspicious he was acting practically every single day of the investigation.
