Media Gaslighting: Blame Trump For Cities Boarding Up Fearing Election Violence
CNN’s John Dean: “What does it say about the USA under Trump when we have to board-up and employ extra security for commercial areas on election day?”
I wrote about DC boarding up ahead of Tuesday’s election, and Mary wrote about other Democrat-run cities following suit. The widespread destruction by Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and affiliated Democrat groups has been going on since the George Floyd protests devolved into urban crime sprees of vandalism, burning, looting, and murder.
Here’s a sampling of what these Biden-supporting groups have wrought (via Twitchy) [Strong Language Warning]:

Even in light of the destruction of their cities, Democrats continued to pursue an agenda of abolishing / defunding the police. Crime, predictably, escalated, but Democrats soldiered on undaunted. Their media cohorts repeatedly and falsely claiming the violent riots were “mostly peaceful protests.”
After months of lying to the American people about the nature of BLM, the existence of Antifa, and the widespread destruction these groups and others have wrought in Democrat-run cities, we shouldn’t be surprised that they are lying again. This time, they are claiming that President Trump is responsible for Democrat-run cities boarding up ahead of the election.
The implications are ridiculous. One is that Trump supporters, should he lose, will magically appear in these Democrat hellholes and start looting and committing arson. This, despite the fact, that not one Trump supporter has engaged in anything of the kind. It wasn’t Trump supporters destroying Portland, Seattle, Kenosha, and it clearly wasn’t Trump supporters during the Obama-Biden administration raining destruction during the Baltimore and Ferguson riots. Leftists riot and topple statues, not Trump supporters.
The other implication is that Trump is responsible for the upcoming riots should he win reelection because his winning will “trigger” the violent leftwing mobs. Or something.
The media wants Americans to be afraid of Trump and his supporters, though, so they are busily spinning their webs of lies and casting them wide.
Of all the crazy gaslighting we have seen from the media during the Trump era, perhaps none is more insane than the claim being pushed that DC is being boarded up for fear of riots by Trump supporters. https://t.co/oLG9vNWTxh

A good example of how elites on the left have normalized political violence from others on the left — and the resultant destruction of property and peace, and possibly the republic itself. https://t.co/PoipbmeJUu

This is on you. This is what #BigMediaHateMachine has done to our country, on purpose.
It’s the direct result of your network/corporate media outlets replacing rational policy arguments with irrational hatred and fear.
The most divisive force in this country is corporate media. https://t.co/BaWW2d3Kxd

The media has been gaslighting the country for quite some time now.
ISN’T IT TIME TO BOARD UP THE TRAITOR MEDIA.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s time to nail the lid closed on them.
it says i was right to break out the AR kits i’d never gotten around to assembling, and did so.
if Andy & Brandy Tifa want to get froggy on my property, they’re gonna get gigged.
#HarmonyChurchRules baby.
Finally got around to loading most of my magazines. I have a bunch in their original sealed packages bearing the manufacture date. Those were worth their weight in good at one point because of that date. Also loaded about 100 stripper clips. Better to have them and not need them than need them and not have them. Never thought I’d see this kind of political violence in our country. I wonder if anyone boarding up window will still pull the lever for biden. I suppose because of TDS they will.
gaslighting is such a non-descriptive word
the media have been expelling gas in my face
and, let me tell you: they really stink!
All I want for Christmas is MAGA RED TSUNAMI VICTORY.
To see the Senate stay in GOP hands.
To hear the lamenations of the Cable News pundits.
Christmas comes early tomorrow.

Texas Officials: Trump Supporters Broke No Laws When they Surrounded and Escorted Biden-Harris Bus From Their Community

Damned Jews — if they hadn’t owned shops, you wouldn’t walking on all this broken glass.
What does it say about the modern Democratic Party when their Antifa and BLM paramilitary minions guarantee riots, looting and unrest if their candidate doesn’t win? That’s the question they should be asking.
My mom passed in 2011. She thought the party was not to be questioned, and that Hillary Clinton’s book was just amazing. I wonder if she would still be the staunch Democrat today?
I’m sad to say she likely would be. She was THAT loyal.
Are you sure she isn’t still voting Dem? Have checked the Chicago voter rolls?
My parents voted Democrat until the day they died. And they still do.
DC is going to be a mess. Period. End of story.
“What does it say about the USA under Trump when we have to board-up and employ extra security for commercial areas on election day?”
It says we’ve got a lot of traitors and terrorists who are in need of due process and appropriate punishment.
TWO TRAITORS ON EVERY STREET LAMP??????????
Snark.
Two per street lamp would violate social distancing, so they would be counted as Covid-19 deaths.
You what’s tiring? Reading about anything CNN broadcasts. Or MSNBC. Or the NY Times.
We can write the stories without even seeing them.
Poor fools whose only source of news is the above.
Wow, Anne Applebaum tweets like she doesn’t understand Communism and Totalitarianism AT ALL. Shameful.
Doesn’t understand the difference between a hole in the ground and the location of her brain !
My mother used to always say:
“THEY DON’T KNOW THEIR END
FROM A HOLE IN THE GROUND.”
It can be read two or three ways……
She doesn’t. Her awful book “Gulag” repeatedly tried to exonerate Stalin and the Communist Party and blame the existence of the Gulag on the Russian people (she seemed to think they ruined the noble Communist ideal). In Applebaum’s twisted mind, the Russian people deserved what they got. I felt absolutely filthy after reading her book.
And Applebaum absolutely loathed Alexandr Solzhenitsyn, whom she constantly accused of exaggerating or fabricating evidence in his “Gulag Archipelago” books. She wrote the forward to the latest printing of Solzhenitsyn’s crowning work, which would be like asking Joseph Goebbels to write an introduction to “The Diary of Anne Frank”. Truly an evil woman who is still a docile and obedient bootlicker for the Soviet Empire.
“Applebaum absolutely loathed Alexandr Solzhenitsyn”
I am not aware of anything like that. Can you provide some primary and secondary sources?
How often have I heard Communism excused on the grounds that the Russians and Chinese are “backwards” peoples! Well, blame it on the poor Slavic Uentermensch and primitve Asiatic, all while calling everyone else racist.
For the record, I cannot believe that the people who gave Mendeleev and Lobochevsky to the sciences and a brilliant galaxy to the universe of letters is backwards; nor can a people with a millennia-old literary traditionbe primitive.
It says that if Trump loses a great awakening will emerge in response and it will look like the civil rights movement when people engage in actual peaceful protest against the usurpation of power by progressives.
It will not take long before people see the actual tyranny that will predictably ensue and turn against it. Peaceful resistance. Not to destroy the system, but to make things ring true to our principles.
The dystopian world that Democrats seek, and the damage being done, will take time to overcome, but the desire for freedom and self-emancipation, American style, will prevail.
That said, it will happen sooner under Trump, and the Democratic riots if he is re-elected will help show Americans they were right.
As Prof. Jacobson said last night in the online discussion, I have never seen such a disconnect from reality in the media as I see now. They aren’t even trying to disguise their lies.
What I see and what I’m told I’m seeing are 180 degrees from each other.
The same is 100% true in “education.”
The Left will burn and loot regardless of who wins.
If Trump wins they will burn/loot as “resistance”
If Biden wins they will burn/loot in “celebration” and because they can to show their power
The question is who do you want to be in charge when it happens
Trump who will finally do something about it
Biden who has been encouraging it and the Left who are sponsoring it $$$ and bailing them out with Leftist DA/judges letting them go free.
I pick TRUMP!
I stood up to a bully once,punched a hole in the wall not an inch from my head (He was threatening to punch me in the face, and I refused to be cowed, so he felt the need to do…something, I guess). Anyway, put his fist through the drywall, along with some of my hair, and then immediately shouted “Look what you made me do!” That’s exactly what the Left is doing here.
Classic abusive behavior.
But the Left, with their usual failure to self-reflect, won’t ever recognize that’s what they’re doing.
Coulda been worse. Pity the chick who married him.
I wonder how many square miles of plywood have been devoted to protecting the innocent from this nation-wide liberal hissy-fit?
It would really suck to be a fir or pine tree right about now.
“See what you made us do!? I never would have beaten you if you’d brought me a sandwich when I told you to! Why can’t you behave right and stop voting for that orange guy!?”
Ask who wins on this – Amazon. Who owns the Washington Post? Amazon. Everything that is happening to the city is just what Amazon wants. Blame it on Trump, but it is Amazon’s win.
Oh, and guess who the deep state is in bed with? Amazon!
The CIA is preparing to significantly increase its reliance on cloud-computing services, with plans to solicit tens of billions of dollars of work divided among multiple tech companies.
The program would also dramatically expand the federal market for the technology — and give a chance for other companies to compete with Amazon.com Inc.
Gaslight yes, but it is not the media behind it.
“CNN’s John Dean: ‘What does it say about the USA under Trump when we have to board-up and employ extra security for commercial areas on election day?’”
It says that among Trump’s services to this country is that he so unhinged the left that they no longer care to wear the mask anymore. He’s exposed them, and in response they fully exposed themselves, as the looters, thieves, arsonists, terrorists, and murderers they’ve always been at heart. And now they don’t care anymore. If they don’t get their way they will threaten (as leftist and like Dean the one-time CNN contributor Reza Aslan did on Twitter) to “burn the entire f—ing thing down.”
And in permissive environment, such as Portland where the DA will not charge violent leftists and Mayor Wheeler will blame leftist violence on non-existent “White supremacists” (with the enthusiastic assistance from the likes of CNN), they’ll carry through on their threats.
In a non-permissive environment like Texas when they get push back from people who won’t enable their infantile tantrums, the thumb-sucking, booger-eating leftists will curl up in the fetal position and cry in their jail cells.
They’re losing, and they know they’re losing, and as their world comes crashing down around them and they’re exposed as frauds they’ll run the volume up to eleventy. It’ll be loudest right before they crash and burn.
O/T I’ve hit a rough patch health-wise and consequently financially. I really wish I could be working, but at the moment I can’t so I started a gofundme account. I did take the precaution of emailing the proprietor of the site so I won’t abuse the privilege of commenting here. But I’d appreciate it if anyone who is willing to do so can help me get the word out.

He’s run his jumbo-tron again. Devastating.
Even now, after months of wanton and sadistic violence, destruction and murder committed by goose-stepping Dhimmi-crats in “Anti-fa” and in “Black Lives Matter” — including the despicable desecration and vandalizing of synagogues across America — the vile, boot-licking, water-carrying, prostitute-lackey propagandists of the Dhimmi-crat Media Complex cannot bring themselves to blame the idiot members of these groups for their indefensible behavior.
If conservative Americans had engaged in one-tenth of the lawless and nihilistic violence that the Dhimmi-crats have engaged in, the media would be calling for the National Guard to shoot them on sight.
Sort of reminds me of bullies who when caught always whimper and blame those they bully for starting it. Wussies.
