M$Greedia's coverage of Groper Don the Con's 'conflicts' is hystericaly

funny and sick - that includes the ''settlement' for fraud at the so called university, the edict that his birther bullshit is now over, the decision to close the foundation, the sexual assaults, etc.

Never forget his made up shit re Hillary Clinton - he is crippled Groper Don the Con

Closing a crooked fake tax dodge charity becomes solving a conflict of interest.

Actual conflicts of interest are completely ignored.

Whatever happens, it'll be the Democrats fault and here's the "proof," the made up story of the day. We are living in a stupid nation, and stupidity wins.

The Demons can't stand that a man that pulled himself up by his bootstraps to become the most powerful man on earth. They can't stand success.

WRONG!! If there is any justice in this world he'll be found guilty of something. Let's face it, if the guy at the mini mart dipped into the cancer fund money jar, he'd do time.

...is what is NOT said. As Sherlock Holmes famously said, "it's the watchdog who DOESN'T bark that gives away the plot."

The more the media hides the Trump history, the more important it is to explore.

the media did their due diligence and met their First Amendment responsibility by extensively reporting on the university scandal, Trump’s birther lie, the foundation scandal, and the sexual assaults.

And with Trump’s election the American people indicated that they didn’t care about Trump’s scandals and misdeeds, rendering further reporting unwarranted.

Indeed, media apologists would maintain that to continue to report on the university scandal, Trump’s birther lie, the foundation scandal, and the sexual assaults would expose the media to accusations of being ‘partisan,’ ‘left-leaning,’ and ‘anti-Trump,’ something the media desperately seek to avoid.

The media’s efforts to normalize Trump is the consequence of their cowardice and the right’s success in creating a post-truth America.
