Forty Four Days After The Presidential Election and The Media Is Still Just A Side Show.

The Presidential campaign of 2024 actually began after Joe Biden took office in January of 2021.  It began with the media's obsession of Trump running for re-election in 2024 and their willingness to allow Trump to dominate their news cycle.  After the election on November 5, that same media with help from the negative voices attempted to force on America the notion that the democratic party was blaming each other, that their agenda was rejected and their party was without leadership and would take years to recover.

That same media began telling the people about Trump's mandate, especially with the GOP controlling both houses of congress beginning in the new year.  Newsweek even named Trump it's "person of the year" award. (Hardly an honor for a convicted criminal).  The media then ran offense for the President elect by giving him coverage for claiming all the prosecutions against him should be reversed because of the Supreme Court's immunity ruling.  

The true story forty four days later reveals Trump ran for President three times and never achieved or received 50% of the popular vote so there is no mandate, the democratic party is alive, well, sane and their agenda has not been dismissed.  As of this writing, the popular vote in the last three Presidential elections, Donad Trump received 214 million votes while the democratic candidates received 221 million votes, a margin of 7 million popular votes for the democrats.

In that forty four day period we also saw President elect Trump pick billionaires and millionaires for his cabinet and other high positions to run government instead of qualified people with experience.  It is in line with Trump's dictator mentality to destroy government, the same institutions he blames for his own self made corruption.  These are the types of people who would like to shut the government down.  As usual, the media has little or no response.  

In those 44 days the media still allows Trump to dominate their news cycle with his trash talk, personal attacks and the chaotic conditions that exist around this unstable person that are fed this negative news 24/7.   Trump's mental behavior is now a part of the media's make up.  When one can not find anything positive to say their mental attitude speaks load and clear.
