Trump And The Fake News
Indeed, Trump is not the only one guilty of shameless demagoguery, he's merely the worst. He's doing his part in the plutocracy's mission to keep "the rabble" divided, but so do his enemies in the mainstream media, be it the fake left or the fake right wing...

Below is a reaction on Trump's rally where the crowd started chanting "send her back" after Trump proposed that four Democrat representatives "go back to where they came from." The anchorman rightly describes this as racist behavior and he seems very calm and collected in his criticisms on Trump and the crowd. But it's MSNCBC folks, it's corporate media, which means that their propaganda is equally harmful. Their "news" is tailored to make profits and to keep alive the system in which they make the profits. They helped create Trump's success by propagandizing that system, the very same that cheated the working class people of the world for decades and made resentment grow among blue-collar workers, thereby fertilizing the soil that sprouted the post-modern demagogues.
What MSNBC is doing here seems legit on the surface, but is ultimately fruitless. Trump voters are not the same as Republican voters who are not the same as Republican representatives. Just like the majority of Democrat voters are not socialists, the majority of Trump voters are not racists, many of them were Obama voters. They're just angry and have every right to be angry. I'm angry. It's just tragic to see that anger be abused and misdirected by demagoguery, to see it directed at the wrong "enemies." And now MSNBC is doing the same by directing anger at Republican voters, which is what they traditionally do; keep alive and amplify the fake left-right divide among their audience. Trump should be grateful for the fake media, they made him... But hey, don't worry, it's all just a ride... What a mess...
