On Tuesday, June 12, President Donald Trump participated in a momentous summit meeting in Singapore that he had arranged for, with the tyrannical leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-Un.
That one day meeting went very well and as a result, North Korea has started down the path of denuclearization and peace with its neighbors, peace with the U.S. and peace with the rest of the world.
It will take considerable time and great efforts to achieve those goals. But if, hopefully, they are achieved, President Trump, that unpolished real estate mogul turned inexperienced president, will deserve a huge Nobel Peace Prize, made out of platinum and gold, and encrusted with diamonds.
After eight years in office, Barack Obama, that great love of all Democrats and a winner of a Noble Peace Prize himself, for doing what, no one yet knows, never ever came within smelling distance of such a summit meeting with Kim.
Hillary Clinton, the smartest woman in the world, during her many years of service in the Senate and as Secretary of State, also never ever came within smelling distance of what Trump has just achieved.
So, how did the “Never Trump, Always Hillary” TV and radio networks CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, MSNBC and NPR, cover that momentous summit meeting on June 12?
They covered it as minimally as they could and when they did cover it, they broadcast mostly negative things about the meeting, about Trump and about Kim.
There were very few U.S. reporters in Singapore that day, that you or I could recognize, and when a lone U.S. reporter did speak up, he or she usually explained that Trump had recently called Kim, “The Little Rocket Man,” or “That Fat Little Killer of His Own People,” while Kim, it was said, had labeled Trump “deranged,” “unbalanced,” and with other unflattering words.
So how could that summit meeting possibly produce anything positive?
Those aforementioned TV and radio networks are working, as hard as they can, to help create a “Blue Wave,” a Democratic Party comeback, that they hope will happen this November, with the midterm elections.
They are working as hard as they can to disgrace (Stormy Daniels, Paul Manafort, etc. etc.) and denigrate (immigration policies), the president.
I don’t think that the Hard Left, who those TV and radio networks work for, will succeed in producing any “Blue Wave” this November, because our economy is humming along at a very high pitch and unemployment is at very low levels for all Americans and especially for minorities.
People vote their pocketbooks, which should be a very big positive for Republicans come this November. In addition, if Trump has any successes with the North Koreans and/or the Russians in the coming months, that can only add to the likelihood that there will be no “Blue Wave” in November.
What can you do to keep the “Never Trump, Always Hillary” TV networks from continuing their efforts to disgrace and denigrate our president, who, after all, represents our country in the world and who represents all Americans, including those who didn’t vote for him?
You could contact the networks and threaten not to watch them anymore, if they don’t stop constantly trying to disgrace and denigrate our president, but I don’t think that your threat to do that will move them very much. What will move them, I think, is this:
If you contact the networks, tell them that you are about to contact the sponsors of the products and services advertised on their networks, to tell the sponsors that you will not buy the products or services advertised, until the network changes its policy of constantly trying to disgrace and denigrate our president.
You should also threaten that you will tell as many family members, friends and acquaintances as you can, to also not buy the advertised products or services, until the network’s policy is changed.
Money is everything to the TV networks, so your threats not to buy the products and services advertised on them will have a heavy impact.
If a network receives enough of these threats, its “Never Trump, Always Hillary” policy will change. Money talks. The radio network NPR (National Public Radio) exists on donations from the public.
Threatening to stop donating to NPR may convince it to change its “Never Trump, Always Hillary” policy.
I’m not trying to advocate that the TV networks mentioned above and NPR should stop criticizing President Trump and his government, when they deserve to be criticized.
I’m all in favor of criticizing government when it deserves to be criticized. However, the TV networks mentioned above and NPR have turned criticizing President Trump and his government into a 24/7 industry, which means that they spend much time broadcasting meaningless stories, trivia (Omarosa Manigault Newman) and half truths.
Paul Manafort, Trump’s one time campaign manager, is now on trial for income tax evasion and bank fraud, committed years before he had anything to do with Trump and the 2016 campaign and election.
Yet, the TV networks are intensely covering his trial, 24/7 and are trying desperately to make a connection to the president.
Why? Because Hillary lost the election that all those TV networks, NPR, The New York Times, and many other print media giants, told us she couldn’t possibly lose and they still haven’t gotten over the shock of that happening.
Destroying Trump, if they can, has become their new mission.
Let’s tell them that it’s not acceptable for them to pursue that mission, during these dangerous times, while Donald Trump is president. If they succeed in destroying Trump now, we then get Mike Pence. Would that be an improvement?
