I would not challenge the idea that each side is full of shit... of course thats true. I say again and again and again that they were two sides of the same coin and just like crockett embody every traid they despise in "the other side". however, there was no balance as to how the news was delivered. Most media favored hillary, not trump. In fact, on my phone, i get headlines daily and they always read like this
Trump bad
Trump bad
Trump is bad
Trump says bad thing
Trump is crazy
Trump bad
Trump meltdown
Trump unelectable
Trump bad
Hillary slams Trump
Trump bad
Trump attacks....
Hillary good
That is how the news headlines read through the election cycle. It became a daily joke here at the office to compare and count. And when Hillary does something like destroys emails under subpoena, lies to investigators, destroys devices under subpoena etc etc etc etc etc, it was barely talked about. New email shit was coming out weekly that constradicted everything she said time and time again and it would get a few seconds coverage and Trumps latest tweet would get 10X more. That was a truly alarming thing to me. The fact the media now has gone from detectives searching for the truth and often beating police to the facts to generally honest reporting to the pressure of a 24 hr news cycle where non-news is news, to a mouth piece for political party.
I dont support Trump.
I didn't vote for Trump.
He's a dipshit.
This election presented no choice. Sociopathic Career Criminal vs Pompous Megalomaniac Narcissist
