”He was lying all along and got away with it” is what it will say on his tombstone.

Trump's "walk-back" The term you are looking for is, "I lied." Bold-faced. You knew it. You bought it.

The focus on the mainstream press misses the point. Voters were fully informed if they wanted to be. They chose a corrupt, lying bigot who tried to overthrow the government by violence because that's who they wanted to vote for.

The media was out to punish Biden from the moment he took office…so yeah, they want Rs in power to sell their books (radical thought - let’s not buy them this time around)

Having a concept of a plan without concrete actions doesn’t lead to any real results. It’s just empty rhetoric meant to confuse people into thinking you’re trying to help, when in reality, there’s nothing substantive being offered—just empty promises. And main stream media refuses to cover this.

Media just accepted it. Donald went back on a major campaign promise & it was as if nothing changed when he said lowering prices would be difficult. youtu.be/drpE9-HkvWM

No, not a media failure. It was a Biden failure. THAT is what the bully pulpit is for and Joe Biden was utterly incapable of using it.

And the MSM will be making a ton of $$ off of their deliberate irresponsible actions. They knew full well, what they were doing.

Stop being surprised. The media have been manipulating the narrative all along.

The media has been failing for 10 years with him

No. His voters know he has nothing and they still voted for him. They are voting for his bluster and ability to wing it for their interest not for any policy perspective or articulated outcome. “We don’t know what he’ll do but we believe the liar when he says he’ll do it for us” 🤷‍♂️

The STOOPID is EXHAUSTING

In fairness, he only said he'd lower prices once: In August. The media failure was pretending that's why people voted for him. His campaign was entirely about retribution, hatred, belittling the Black lady who talked about lowering prices EVERY DAMNED DAY. THAT'S what they voted for.

The media has failed since he came down the elevator.

Yet another failure of MSM. A travesty.

The failure is DEMOCRATS wont message this!! We can’t keep blaming the media when Dems won’t Say The Wirda.

Same with interest rates.

Complicity is more like it!

The entire Trump thing, all of it, is the media's fault. He's a sex offender, and that alone should have tanked him immediately. There is no free press guardrail anymore... 95% of US media is owned by a handful of billionaires.

The problem is… the media gambled, expecting him to fall flat with his lack of info and pseudo facts. But all he needed to do was to keep playing his base like a tuneless fiddle… and his gambit worked for him. All we have left is to laugh at them as his lies become their undoing. That’s it!

My god, we are so screwed...

Smart people knew that. I'm not sure it matters to them though. FB is best place to reach ones I know supported him but I don't think I can catch their attention until can point at something actual, such as higher prices. Easily proven lies don't seem to matter to them (ie tariffs, healthcare)

Lemme help, 'The mainstream press enabled Trump’s scam by helping him create an impression that he had an actual plan instead of reporting the obvious truth — that he was offering nothing but bluster and empty talking points all along." ...again."

They want him there. He’s good for ratings. They elected him 2x and we are stuck with IT. #Merika is MAGA and they are ignorant.

Absolutely correct!

Thanks for calling this out! Trump didn't even have "concepts of a plan" for lowering prices. MSM helped get him elected and now we are will reap the consequences.

The media slit their own throats.

Corporate media is dying and they did it to themselves. Any illusions we had about fairness (or even being on the side of the people) went out the window with the way they carried water for Fat Hitler. They normalized him and fed us propaganda.

Trump's 73 point IQ test found Sounds about right

Jesus Christ he was even late to the game that there was a word called groceries. Most people didn’t know that.

Does this not apply to EVERYTHING he has said and done since 2015? Have they not failed the masses but pleased their overlords? I mean, for a while too: Cheney’s Energy commission or citizens united or…well, NAME something. It is just so evident now. No one hides their intentions anymore.

Media is a failure because it's GOP owned

PLEASE. DO. YOUR. OWN. RESEARCH. MSM IS DEAD.

Right??

The press is owned by the right!! We cannot depend on them to do the right thing!

Don’t agree that the Main Street news should trumpet that Trump lied about lowering food costs because it’s not news that Trump lied about anything and really, only the least intelligent MAGATs believed him. Simply not newsworthy 😉

Well in fairness his plan is to give Ukraine to Putin 🤷‍♀️ so I guess he does plan to end it 🤮

Nothin’ new there.

Trump works on 'concepts' of a plan for everything he needs to change.

🥱

Just to mention a few. So many truth tellers out here. Find your people!

Honoured to be in that company, thanks!

✌🏼

That’s what he does. 😡

The media has so failed this country. However, that what happens when you disable all regulations and allow mega media conglomerates owned by rich people who are running the news as an entertainment vehicle.

Why does MSM get the credit and not voter willing suspension of disbelief?

They wanted him in office, at least that is what the lack of reporting the complete truth tells me.

He HAS a plan but it got lost in the "weave."

Can't a transaction be voided due to fraud?

he always only ever has concepts of plans that people are looking into so that something might be done at some point

Everything about him is pure fraudulence.

But WE knew that

The term “mainstream media” is no longer useful. I prefer “corporate media”

Anyone or any news org. that ever thought or represented him as serious about anything was a fool or thought they could get some of the grift.

They won't even TOUCH the evidence being unearthed that this was HACKED by Musk and company. @smartelections.bsky.social

"robber" of course. But "rubber barons" is kinda funny.

says the faux president who was confirmed lying over 30,573x while in office…Washington Post. so now he’s honest?

corporate media never once made trump explain a plan about anything. ‘Looking very strongly at that.’ ‘We’ll have something very strongly soon.’ ‘We’re developing something that will be very strongly better.’ ‘China will very strongly pay tariffs.’ ‘Tariffs will very strongly pay for child care.’

Remember how Trump said he'd remove taxes on tips, then Harris picked that idea up, and all of a sudden every news outlet was questioning how it could be done?

Also wasn’t there a big deal about some kind of wall?

He has had zero plans for basically everything.

MSM fails at every turn * Trump says he'll lower prices - MSM never asked how * Trump says prices wont drop - MSM never asks why he lied and barely covers it * When prices go up - I can guarantee there will be no reporting

The American people are not children, they should have known this themselves.

He will keep doing it until we start calling him a liar to his face in public.Trump can’t stand to be embarrassed. Let’s all do it.

We really have to deal with 4 years of lies because a fourth of our population consists of stupid people.

Nobody in the media ever asked Trump how he was going to lower prices. They were more concerned with V.P. Harris and the specifics of her plans.

Seems like a success since they always flatter him and always two-sides everything. Definitely getting what he paid for.

Con man with marketing savvy

The media is only interested in drama ratings.

My MSM is the NYT, WaPo and The Guardian. They were pretty clear about the President's powerlessness in this regard.

President Biden must declare an emergency and arrest Trump for the Insurrection on I suggest Jan 6th, 2025 in order to save America and our world from a Devil named Trump.

That is the story of Trump’s life: Lying all along and getting away with it.

He sure pulled that one off

This.

Donald Trump is portrayed as a cartoonish supervillain, embodying traits of classic horror villains like Jason or Voldemort. Despite being a billionaire born into privilege, he markets himself as a champion of the people, skipping the lessons of leadership, empathy, and accountability. - D. Stevens

The mainstream media profit from drama May you live in less interesting times said now media owner ever

If gas hits 10 bucks maybe MAGA will finally get it. Maybe.

Nothing new there. Same in his first Presidency. It's all about him and nothing else. People just don't get it. If they did, Harris would be President elect.

Any person who needs the media to point out Trump's lies would not believe the lies, nor care. This is about stupid people driven by racial hate and ignorance.

So fucking infuriating what this lying conman is allowed to get away with

Just a little gullible to believe the first lies. Stubborn to keep believing them years later. Absolutely stupid to still be voting for him and buying his bumper stickers in 2024 AD.

Very.

The msm is in on it! 🤷🏻‍♀️💔💰

He doesn’t have a plan for anything but corruption, looting and bribery.

no one believes you nothing news site.

You mean to tell me the guy who failed to make Mexico pay for the wall and who has threatened to tear down Obamacare and the ACA but only had concepts of a replacement for a decade also lied about bringing down prices? Shocking.

The media totally failed YET AGAIN to maintain their guardrails against Trump - a man who either wilfully lies or simply misunderstands and then doubles down to save face.

This is nothing new - remember the wall that he promised would "fix" illegal immigration in his first term? He's never been held accountable for anything.

No better example than his “In Two Weeks” healthcare plan. Totally full of bullshit

Those of us with a brain have learned that he doesn’t have a plan for anything.

I must have missed the part where he proposed a “plan”. For anything.

How do we stop him from becoming president. He is terrible for our country. Why does musk run the show? He wasn't elected to anything. We have to do something to stop this..

Maddening

He's never been held to account for his bullshit starting with the birther crap and "Mexico will pay for it".

The guy lied constantly during his first term, during his entire ‘re-election campaign’ and everyday since then…. Why would ANYONE expect any different? You people voted him in, knowing full well who he was and what he stood for. There’s enough blame to go around

One of many.

We needed so much detail from Kamala and only drill baby drill from trump

The mainstream media failed, yet they congratulated themselves as if they were courageous journalists. Now no one trusts them.

The MSM kept treating Trump like he was a sane, credible, politician, while nitpicking everything Kamela Harris said. They played bothsidesism in order to sanitize Trump’s craziness.

The MSM is incapable of using the word “lied”

The media also should not have kept posing the choice in the election as democracy vs lower prices. Every time I heard journalists and pundits who I otherwise respect say things like, “voters don’t like Trump’s criminality, corruption, etc but they are voting for lower prices,” I wanted to scream.

VP Trump supporter "oh I'm sure he has a plan, he's just waiting until he gets in office so the Biden won't steal it from him. (actual conversation with a trump supporter while at work).

Let Elon pay the cost of a shutdown. The last one cost us $11B. In 35 days.

Econ 101 class might help, 😉

Lol..

Wow who could’ve seen this coming…

Trump has NEVER had a plan on anything. Wake up people to his con games of bluster

It was more about blaming Biden for inflation and saying inflation was low under Trump. GOP spent four years trashing the economy as the worst, but if they had been in power they would have said it was great. Trump is already taking credit for any good news even though Biden is still president.

FAFO Stage

But he had concepts of a plan

He didn’t have a “concept or a plan”.

In defense, those who know, know. Those who vote for him don’t want to know. Not sure media would have made any difference.

And wait until press is replaced with state media.

You are correct. But now that he has cowered ABC and others, they'll only report on stories that favor him.

Just add it to the pile

I’ve been saying for a decade that they are truly the Fifth Column.
