Maybe because a lot of the time its just fake news or a twisted narrative.Many of my more conservative friends will barely acknowledge my existence anymore because they get angry when I call these out.

Anymore, all of it is a twisted narrative. The media has proven time and time again how it cannot be trusted. We apply our bias to a story and that's what we believe.Maybe because a lot of the time its just fake news or a twisted narrative.

It's not down!... ok it IS down, but not in this specific category... ok it IS down in that category too, but it's fascist... know what? That crime rate was actually good.Only in America can a reduction in crime not be a reduction in crime because that particular crime is a single digit percentage. I'm not applying this to our forum, I see it in the news and online.
"Crime is down."
"No it's not. Carjackings are at an all time high!"
"Good thing I didn't say 'carjackings' isn't it, you fucking twit?'
A lot of people said, and did, a lot of sketchy shit over the last four years because they were sure Trump would end up in prison or at least politically neutered, so that there would be no meaningful consequences for their actions.
...then Trump got re-elected.
Now, consequences.
Seb Gorka had a pretty good quote on the matter.Smart men who studied political science might recall it being the "FAFO theorem", an off-shoot of the "karma law in politics."
The one thing China insisted on for the trade deal.Worst call of the admin to date. I have no clue how to even begin making this make sense.
Lutnik's ridiculous framing- "It's an economic decision, 15% of lower colleges will go out of business." AND....?
Huge swing and a miss.
Trump ignites conservative backlash after opening door to 600,000 Chinese students: 'What is this madness?'

Speaking of Chi-Raq...here be the mayor:It's not down!... ok it IS down, but not in this specific category... ok it IS down in that category too, but it's fascist... know what? That crime rate was actually good.
Classic disconnect between the People and the elites. The mayors and talking heads are all saying "I dont know what you mean we don't have a crime problem!" while the people are cheering for the reduction in crime and safer streets.
This weekend alone in Chicago, 6 people died (including children) and 27 more were injured in shootings across the city. Worst Mayor in the Country, Brandon Johnson, says his city is going to riot to resist a possible NG deployment. His child constituents are being murdered in the streets, and his response is... protests to keep the crime going?
As an aside but tangentilly related, Gavin Newsom continues his self-own presidential candadicy by alleging the top 10 cities in America are all in red states (this is factually accurate) and is apparently blissfully unaware that they all have democratic leadership, save 1, who just put a republican in as mayor in recent history.
He has merch that looks exactly like Trump, is tweeting like Trump, acting like Trump... it's super weird.

I like how the Left didn't care about anything Epstein or Ukraine related until after Trump was in office. Both took place before Trump's second presidency. No one from the Left cared under Trump's first term with Epstein until "The List" became controversial during his second term. Most of them were silent about Ukraine until after it became controversial with Trump.
