we really are on our own - I thought, naively, that *at least one* big press/media outlet would at least cover what he's saying and doing objectively *especially* given that we've lived through this hell before, but NO

Ex-fucking-actly right. That may have sounded better in my head. ..doesn't change the fact that thay everything is a distraction for some really bad shit they're doing.

because one of these plans is a dim mobster's brain fart designed to bully a neighboring country into kissing his ring (and distract the clickbait press from his garbage appointments), the other is a very concrete plan that's happening as we speak

Thanks for this... And I appreciate you being exhausted having to relay this... Be sure to take care of yourself. Because I barely am able to sustain one article on this... I can't imagine what you have to do.

Misdirection from what is to what if

His personal project is to steal as much money as possible for himself and his friends. Everything else is distraction. After 10 years, the press keeps getting hoodwinked by the distractions.

@karlbode.com It’s a bumper crop for Main Media once again.

Your President is threatening an economic blockade of our country. He's already promised massive tariffs on Canadian imports. You should probably pay attention to what he's doing to us.

Exactly as planned!

Distraction from his incompetence and crimes is his MO.

He’s running the reality show for nonstop attention-which he needs pathologically-while his power hungry sycophants and associates-who are fully in charge of things-are making actual plans to destroy the country from the inside out. He’s their distraction tool.

The shit they flood the zone with. Good job digging out the nuggets of consequence.

I think he is probably going to invade some neighboring countries and everyone here calling it a "distraction" is in for a rude awakening soon

So... his plan is working. Once again, the media jumps for the shiny object.

He does that. Makes outrageous statements to distract us.

The MSM *has enabled this monstrosity* all the way. Shameful and destructive.

I think it’s a smokescreen for concentration camp legal basis bsky.app/profile/fake...

Exactly. This is a distraction. Smarten up people and media. Look at his real hurtful agenda he is working on. This is just entertainment and the more everyone falls for it the more he implements harmful, evil plans. The fact the media has not learned this is irresponsible and disgusting.

Our legacy media is such a failure. They’re led by their noses. Trump can practically tell them what to cover and distract from the REAL story and they’ll do it, they’ll follow like good little lemmings

Our news media is ill-equipped to distinguish attempts at distraction from whatever it is they’re distracting us from. The attention economy demands our eyeballs at the stupid and sensational, while the real work of corruption grinds on.

All a distraction. When will we learn?

Pay No Attention to The Man Behind The Curtain

Sensationalism sells better.

Stop megaphoning the Orange Mentality Stable idiot

Hey Karl! I work for a Consumer Protection ngo, and I'll tell ya - I'm looking for any brainstorm partners for what the heck we should be doing about this dismantling. Chat?

The media keeps failing us. On purpose.

He's being allowed to say this by his handlers because it's a good diversion It's far more sensational and eye\catching to write about a supposed plan to invade Canada than it is to write about the plan to dismantle consumer protection And they don't want to draw more attention towards the bigotry

@mls14 @karlbode.com This is just the latest #GishGallop #news. 💯 At least it's not mean tweets because he is contractually obligated nyet to post there anymore.

@karlbode.com And none about his obvious mental deterioration.

The crazy thing is these supposed Republicans are looking to dismantle everything Nixon did right. I can’t believe I’ve lived so long that I miss the Nixon Administration

It's all 99% chaff, 1% cruise missile.

Click bait always wins the race for headlines. THIS is why independent media is growing and corporate media is losing.

Thank you for keeping an eye on the ball

The distraction is the point.

It's how he distracts! " Throws a fire cracker, hey look over there. While he picks your pocket" PERIOD!

They swing at every pitch

He figured out our media in 2015 and our media just keeps chasing the branch that gets tossed.

That’s the plan.
