Are they Trump supporters, or is it a case of that thing where business types donate to both main parties, and all viable candidates, in order to ensure that whoever wins they'll have an an inside track with whoever is in power?

(Barring Murdoch, obviously, who's just a bad man).

Could easily be self-interest, they like their money, and they like the ad revenue from headlines, and Trump is more of a headline generator than Biden.
 
@FelixDeCat media narrative and bias is real..

I am a fan of a football club called Manchester City.

But they are hated by the media because their owner is an Arab who invests in the club and has listened to neighbors and invested in the city and transformed it.

But nope can't have that.. only rich white guys are allowed to win trophies.. so the media calls them cheats for financial doping and such without any actual proof.

It applies to other things too..

for example shark attacks

And I think you will have known by now how that can be politicized too into forging false narratives!

Wow. Just fucking WOW!

It seems the problem isn't so much Biden, the dems.. but the system itself.

The first past the post system relies on getting a simple candidate to have the most votes even if its just 25-30% and the rest of the vote is diluted all over paving the way for minority rule!

It's about time to replace it with proportional representation!

As an Indian, I'd say this could just be the surface. There's a massive operation underneath. Find that "consultancy" that hired them, jammed them all up in one place & giving them work. (electronics, computers found means Employment scam for tech skilled victims) Go through financial & payroll records of that consultancy. Find how many of those victims documents were forged/faked to get here.

Find who sweetened their own pockets, to give that consultancy the projects. You'll find the source of corruption.. it could very well end up being one of your congressmen/woman.

The victims are usually folks with dreams to fight their financial battles back home, and get lured here promising jobs & they probably don't understand how bad this gets until they get here. These consultancies even withhold 3-6 months of their pay, so that they keep working in those conditions without leaving. Catching individuals will not help. Nail the consultancies.




That's quite the conspiracy theory but I suppose he could have a point.. no shortage of corrupt politicians left or right.
 
So here's my whacked out Q'd to the hilt conspiracy theory on Donald Trump getting his ear dinged:

Conspiracy #1 - Somebody in the Secret Service upper echelon saw a golden opportunity to rid the nation of the most dangerous man alive when it was noticed that some guy was boldly trying to take Trump's life. The security detail was given notice that the shooter was one of their own guys, so they chilled on him. Only after the shooter started letting rounds off and the security guys noticed that those rounds were heading in Trump's direction did they react and finished the shooter off.

Conspiracy #2 - The Secret Service or someone in management went rogue and cooked up this whole plan, start to deadly finish. He or they recruited sympathizers and planted them in Trump's upcoming rally security detail. They also recruited this ripe for the picking dupe to do the most patriotic duty one could ask of an American and send Trump to hell with some extra luggage in his head, telling the future national hero that they'd fake his death after his job was done, give him a big reward and a new identity. The rest is history, well except for the fact that the guy they chose for the job couldn't shoot the side of a barn even if he were in it.

About time Biden told the media to fuck off!

I did notice a quantum shift in the reporting from CNN and MSNBC where they were persistently harping on Joe's age related slip up's while totally ignoring Trump's own egregious behavior at that debate. For the fact that both media outlets did it in unison was quite telling, well to me anyway. So it does seem that there was a concerted bias against Biden while giving Trump all the slack he needed to cover for his avoidance of answering questions and his persistent bald faced lying at that event.

Trump sells ads. Network news is clickbait. We ceded the public square to billionaire mouthpieces and we should expect no better.

People forget that modern news is a moneymaker first. There's a reason you don't see this shit on NPR.
 
I wonder if this near death custom ear piercing experience that Trump went through has given him a nasty case of PTSD. Add in the fact that he thinks our REAL warriors are losers, hey, maybe he now sees himself as a loser too. Nah, who the hell am I kidding? His megalomania mixed in with his unflinching narcissism will pull him through and become a steroidal tyrannosaurus of his former self.

Watch out world, the moment Trump pulls out of the funk he's in, with his Ku Klux Kult Klan exponentially inflating his pre-existing ginormously huge ego, the new Trump will be an unstoppable dynamo fueled by his being a simpleton backwater racist looking to rid the world of those vermin that poisoned the blood of his kingdom.

* this post started out as a parody of Trump, but then I realized it was closer to the truth than not. Damn.*
