Hillary Was Speaking Out On Trump's Immigration Policy On MSNBC....

Instead of them staying with her speech til she finished they broke away at the top of the hour. When their next program started - one of the first things they played was Trump saying that it was the Dems that created this law and that the Dems could end this. They aired letting him lie to the American People instead of giving Hillary a chance to speak the truth.

This is what's wrong with our MSM. We never get the full story from the Dems. They always cut short the Dems responses and defer to Trump and the Repugs.

This is one of the reasons we are where we are. The MSM constantly normalizes Trump.

often he wasn't there yet, so she was interrupted to show an empty podium waiting for trump.

How can we win when even the media is against us?

It's time for her to take to the airwaves and fight this son of a bitch. If he's going to continue to attack her as a private citizen she needs to sue his ass for defamation.

The popular vote proved she was the people's choice for President. She needs to start taking him on personally and expose him for the insecure,impotent,draft-dodging unpatriotic liar that he is.

it what it is.

That is not editorial opinion or comment, that is a FACT.

The republicans have the majority in both houses, and control the WH

This isn't because of the Democrats, this is because of the WH. If the WH wanted to end the separation of of families, they could do it immediately, and the Democrats would be right there. The issue is that some republicans, including Susan Collins are trying to tie it to building a wall and issues NOT related to the seperation of familes.

Trump and the republicans own this both from the perspective of the inhumanity of it, to all the political ramifications in has.


The media is complicity is when they don't give the full picture of things
