one of the many ways the media shows its bias is that, while it will report bad news for donnie, it always manages to do so in a way that downplays its impact. it's somehow always less severe, less outrageous, less offensive, less damaging and shorter-lived than it ever would be if a democrat had done a fraction of the same thing.
donnie is out nations first convicted felon as president, how this isn't a blaring alarm coloring every thing he does and every statement he makes is beyond me, especially as he's pretty clearly running the government like a criminal enterprise. but the 34 count conviction has been relegated to footnote status most of the time, it seems, even if it's highly relevant to the news of the day.
donnie has been found liable for sexual assault amounting to rape, is accused by at least a couple dozen others of various other forms of sexual abuse/assault, has paid millions to settle a number of such claims, has signed a crazy number of non-disclosure agreements, many likely to cover up even more of this, and has paid people to stay quite about it and even committed felonies to further conceal not only the sex-related scandals but also the efforts to cover up these scandals.
and this is the man who is telling us all of a sudden that there is nothing to see in the epstein files, the never existed and all his favorite democratic boogeymen fabricated it and hoax and marsha, marsha, marsha, i mean russia, russia, russia, and why don't we just move on.....
how is not the fact that he's been convicted of lying to cover up his sex-related scandals not a major item in the story?
maybe it is, but i haven't seen the msm zero in on it. this is the sort of thing they maybe mention, or not, then move on, or they characterize it as a democratic attack on donnie.
the fact that his a criminal should be a major component of all news stories about him. it should be the basic lens through which we view all his decisions.
and believe me, it explains a *lot* of what he does.
