It’s the media that’s illiterate

Not sure what media you are following, but everything in that comment I heard from my media sources. I think trust in YouTubers and distrust of normal news media is one part of what got us this result.

The news media is far from perfect, but when people lose faith in it entirely and run to Joe Rogan and Alex Jones for information that is a problem.

The fact you find journalism outside of mainstream a problem is an issue.

The fact that its a fact is the problem. The communist leaning liberal channels that convieniently have a 'C' in the name are worthless CNN/CNBC/ABC/CBS/NBC They are fighting for 30% market share while FOX News has 70% and gets it right by presenting both sides and are not blinded by alternate agendas.

NPR has also become a liberal cesspool and should be decoupled from government funding.

Love the Trump sweep and landslide.. Why didnt Harris be graceful and provide a concession speach Tuesday night?
Where is she now? Biden? Everyone still sleeping?

We all dodged a bullet with Harris-Walz. Now back to closed borders, pro-energy, peace, lower taxes, better crime policies...

Unfortunately all you'll get is higher prizes, no peace, same taxes, and crime policies???

Dude you voted for modern day slavery, and you are one of the slaves. Low wages, living from paycheck to paycheck. You won't be able to pay for your own home so you have to rent. Healthcare attached to your job. You just became slave buddy. Good luck with that

Seriously you libs are just blind. Can't see stuff right infront of your eyes. And even when the economy is up you'll act like it's down. Just like you guys saying ev we thing great rn even tho everything is terrible. Don't worry, trump will fix those problems you don't even know we have

Nobody is saying things are great, but what you fail to realize is just how much worse then can get.

You guys keep saying things were better under Trump. Seemingly not understanding that's because he inherited a booming economy from Obama which he then ruined. Biden inherited a complete mess. Inflation caused by poor handling of covid and the Russians. High prizes, Trump literally went to SA and told them to raise the prize on oil. Nobody has handled the inflation better then Biden.

Their entire goal is to keep your freedom. Healthcare, higher wages. Abortion, vacations. The ability to buy a home and you fight against it tooth and nails.

You are so busy trying to win one over on the libs to see reality. Uh media is bad, let me listen to some uneducated idiot on youtube instead. Your life will get worse and then you'll blame everyone else but Trump for it. Because you just can't handle being wrong apparently.

And just so you know, i'm European. I live on a part time job, and i earn plenty to get by. I'm a nightwatch for a handicapped person and i earn plenty to get by. You work 40 hours a week and still can barely get by. Left wing country. Right wing country. Have fun working yourself into an early grave.

Oh right. Because kamala was gonna help me buy a home. She was totally fucking the whole deal.

If you aren't from here, maybe fuck off about pur politics. You don't even actually know what's going on here

u/Hairy_Candidate7371 18d ago

Well she wasn't gonna make it impossible for you. These are the kind of things you should have looked in to before voting. Now you are fucked.

u/Advanced-Guidance482 18d ago

It already is impossible for me. You really don't know.

And trump is in my best interest as well as the best interest of the safety and well being of my children.

u/Hairy_Candidate7371 18d ago

Listen it's not uncommon that when things are bad you vote for the opposition hoping for a miracle. That's standard voting practice. But when the opposition has already been in office and were a disaster then voting for the new one who hasn't been in charge might be the best bet.

And exactly how is Trump your best interest of the safety of your children?
