Every major news outlet is owned or controlled by a corporation or oligarch.

All the networks have been arm-twisted to air the whole address unfiltered. Some may have fact checking afterward (which will be weak). Trump + Co. and RW media appratus will FLOOD traditional and social media. They hope the entire thing becomes gospel--"It is so because we say it is so". We'll see a wave of MAGA horny legislators get in on the act. And sanity and fact will fly out the window.

That is NOT to say any of this will work or the electorate still won;t come out in droves in November.

Don't show the citizens being bombed. That is too unpleasant for us to see, as is Trump.

I doubt they will question anything as he abuses his power and illegally uses the FCC as his 1st Amendment counter-force.

The guy should have been impeached 10 times over now

We need to look beyond his shit bag of bloviating pus, the puppetmasters are just as cruel and are waiting in the shadows for his fat ass to expire.

But his message, whatever bullshit it is, should not be accepted as the law.
