Everyone’s worst fears about Donald Trump appeared to have been confirmed.
The man the Democrats continually claim is a “threat to democracy” said at the weekend there would be a “bloodbath” if he lost the November election.
All the media outlets carried the story.
Political commentators breathlessly reported the incendiary remarks.
He’s threatening to tear the country apart!
Trump dangerous!
Orange Man bad!
Trump triggers outrage with “bloodbath” comment!
On and on it went.
Except that Trump’s “bloodbath” comment had nothing to do with violence.
I’ve watched the entire speech. Trump was addressing America’s trade war with China and told the crowd that only his policies could save American car manufacturers.
He said there would be a bloodbath" in the automobile industry if he lost the election.
Except that’s not how it was reported.
Media outlets deliberately made it sound as if Trump had threatened violence in the streets.
Even foreign media organisations repeated the bloodbath hoax.
The UK’s Mirror Newspaper went with this headline …
“Donald Trump chillingly warns of a 'bloodbath' in the US if he isn't elected as president again”
As Winston Churchill once quipped, “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."
Trump’s use of the phrase bloodbath was entirely appropriate.
While it’s true that a bloodbath can mean “a violent contest or struggle”, it can also mean “a major economic disaster”, according to Miriam Webster’s Dictionary.
If you’ve watched much CNN (I don’t recommend it) you’ll notice that they regularly cut away from Trump’s speeches.
Now you know why.
CNN refuse to show Trump’s speeches so that they get to tell you what he said.
The mainstream media lie.
Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
And they wonder no-one watches them anymore.
Mainstream media… the real threat to democracy. Not even subtle in their partisan propaganda masquerading as ‘journalism’.
Any wonder countless millions of us have switched these hacks off, with their politically and ideologically motivated agendas no longer hidden but arrogantly broadcast without an ounce of shame or self awareness.
Their relentless campaign of deliberate misinformation and deceit proving only one thing; those not captured by the left’s gender bending, climate change panicking, racially dividing totalitarian mindset, are well and truly over the target and have them running scared.
It’s the MSM which has blood on its hands. They constantly stoke hatred. They caused the BLM pushing the St George Floyd travesty. A powerful force for evil.
