Trump gets away with horrendous threats against the majority of Americans daily. You just don't see it consistently covered in the mainstream media which hasn't figured out how to deal with Trump's daily attacks against his perceived enemies.
It's really sad that the industry which enshrines objectivity is at a loss on how to cover an election where one candidate is a normal politician, and the other is a convicted rapist who tried to steal the 2020 election.
Publishers and editors are afraid to accurately portray events for fear of being biased. Instead, they would rather stumble into a dictatorship rather than to take a side.
In their efforts to be neutral the press can't seem to handle the fact that this is not just a regular election between a Republican and a Democrat.
It must be understood that ignoring or avoiding Trump's dangerous behavior is a mistake. An error of the first order. We're talking about Democracy versus Autocracy. The most meaningful election in America's history is upon us.
It's not too late for American media to fulfill its basic obligation to report on Trump's escalating threats in a consistent and accurate fashion.
The press needs to stop pretending that Trump rallies calling for the death of Democrats are just politics as usual.
Trump's cult uses a variety of tactics meant to train and socialize the public, including media and cultural elites, into compliance and submission. He uses the threat of violence, coupled with the promise of positive rewards for loyalty and "patriotism."
In essence, sociopath Trump is authorizing his MAGA followers to do whatever it takes to get him re-elected.
None of this is normal. It's the mainstream media's duty to inform Americans of the threats Trump presents to their freedoms on a daily basis.
As it Stands, worrying about appearing biased (even when you have the receipts) is not serving anyone but Trump.
