NPR Tweeted Out the Entire Declaration of Independence and Trump Supporters Called It Propaganda

Since Donald Trump was elected president, the country has taken some strange turns. And by "strange" I mean "resembling the early stages of a dystopian novel." Threats against the media are on the rise. Overt racism is on the rise. Our divisions as a country are seeming more and more pronounced. So what better way to battle these scary developments than by focusing on our nation's founding principles?

Well, that's exactly what NPR did yesterday to celebrate the Fourth of July. For the past 29 years, Morning Edition has marked the day by reading the Declaration of Independence aloud, and this year they added Twitter to the mix. Seems about as uncontroversial a decision as you could make on the Fourth of July, but some Trump supporters lost their damn minds because they thought the act was anti-Trump propaganda.

NPR is very biased in favor of the Left, so this was one of those Left Wing games where leftist pretend to be smarter and better educated than people with other viewpoints.

So, Elkin, what precisely is your educational background?

What scholarly books or articles have you written that we may all read?

JJ...."NPR is very biased in favor of the Left, so this was one of those Left Wing games where leftist pretend to be smarter and better educated than people with other viewpoints."

Yep....NPR is VERY biased. Damn those biased channels! Let's go watch FOX instead.

But if you did that Dogshit, How would you keep up with the latest developments in the Russian hacking plot or the impeachment proceedings?

Madcow would miss her viewer if you went away.

The problem is that so many media outlets are so biased in favor of the Left.

Even at Fox, you had Megyn who hated Trump, and Shep hates Trump, and Chris Wallace is another preening leftist who hates Trump.

The real issue is that any media consumer has to wade through bias merely to translate what the great Walter Lippmann called "the world outside" into "pictures in our heads" of the status of the world today.

CNN is so anti-Trump....this morning in their discussion of the meeting between the President and Putin..
John King and his panel of anti_Trumpers were actually praising Putin as being a strong leader to his people,
with 21 years of experience as a leader of his country compared to 5 months for President Trump, and concluded
Putin is a stronger leader they said than President Trump..!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

This is funny because any other day CNN loves to feign outrage accusing the President of having praised Putin
to the point of being treasonous !! :o :lol:

Historically, the liberal news outlets (NY Times, Wash Post, Balt Sun, USA Today, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN) would at least pretend to be somewhat objective.

These days, they are not even pretending.

The Left has talked itself into the proposition that Trump is so far outside the norm that he isn't even a RINO like McCain or Romney and thus Trump must be attacked 24 hours a day.

That's why CNN has ratings just above the Food network.

But the Food shows are more interesting.

With his ignorant, crude, disgusting and arrogant words and actions, tRump has EARNED every bit of the harassment that he is receiving. He is, to coin a phrase, reaping what he sews.

Trump is not suave, but he isn't a professional politician.

Look at the many arrogant and ignorant remarks from Saint Barry, the race-baiting socialist.

And what did he leave us with -- a foreign "policy" featuring a fake line in the sand re Syria, with the Islamization of Europe, with N Korea half nuts, and ISIS running wild.

At home, Saint Barry left us almost 20 trillion in debt, with 94 million out of the labor force, with 43 million on food stamps, and U-6 unemployment over 9 percent.

Today, the U-6 is 8.6 and that isn't good. But down from 9.9 percent in June 2016.

To Hillary, the average American was a "deplorable" who didn't want socialized medicine, or open borders, or 12 million illegals, or uncheckable Syrian "refugees" coming in.

-Dogshit

Yes, that would be coining a phrase, you stupid public school indoctrination and propaganda agent.

Once again, like the time you wrote, "Low and behold," when that phrase is, "Lo and behold," you butchered another one.
The actual Biblical quote ( and I know you didn't know it was a Bible quote, that must twist your guts) is, " As ye sow, also shall ye reap."

You have to feel really sorry for all the kids this drunken idiot ruined.

JJ.....Obama indeed did have some faults, but they were NOTHING like what tRump is producing daily. And.....all that deficit was due to the Bush recession, and the Bush wars. Bush was a republican, in case you forgot. (PS.....as much as I hated him then, I would gladly take him back over this Orange Buffoon) (Looking back, Jeb would probably have been a good choice too.)

Insipid....Should I tell you where you can stick that Iron Age book of propaganda?

No, but see if you can get a refund on whatever degree, if any, North Carolina requires to warp young minds in the public school system there. Of course, most if your students only had growing "ter-bakkey" and brewing shine in their future, so what good did an education do?

You never fail to amaze me with your stupidity.

You never have been any good at this, on any forum.

You always pick out someone to follow and your posts, when they don't reveal how little you know, consist mainly of you jumping up and down, pointing your finger and shouting, "What he said, what he said!" In admiration. Of whoever's ass you've chosen to suck.
It was Twain on one site, it's AssClown here.
Neither one of has any game and I humiliate you both every day.
Now go continue getting shit faced you old drunken baby raper.

Obama racked up more debt than all prior presidents combined.

He came in with 9 trillion, and left with 19 t.

He did that the old-fashioned way -- by spending like a fleet of drunken sailors.

Did Obama inherit problems?

Sure, every president does, but Obama and Trump spent 18 months each campaigning for the office and knowing every day they would confront problems if elected.

With Obama, he defined every problem in terms of race and class, and his every "solution" was some huge federal bureaucracy.
