Former national security adviser Michael Flynn has pleaded guilty for lying to the FBI as a result of the investigation conducted by special counsel Robert Muller. I’ve made a point to watch both Fox’s and CNN’s reporting. This is what I’ve seen: This is likely just the tip of the iceberg. I invite all those who support President Donald Trump and the Republican Party to respond if I’m wrong as the facts roll in.
Fox News downplays the entire situation and provides cover for the president and his administration as facts increasingly point to involvement at the highest levels. CNN is reporting facts and using legal experts to analyze the significant potentials going forward.
Faced with facts by most legitimate news reporting outlets, a man like Mr. Trump was still elected president. In an effort to have someone who “tells it like it is” and “isn’t a part of the political” establishment, we’ve seen an electoral majority of Americans put a person without moral or ethical boundaries into the most powerful position in the world.
I feel bad for people who tune in only to the conservative networks. They are going to feel blindsided when the facts continue to roll out. They’re going to be fed a line by Fox about conspiracies of Democrats and establishment Republicans and will never believe the actual truth. It will all somehow be President Barack Obama’s and Hillary Clinton’s fault. Yet if this had been either of them, they would have been armed with their pitchforks and screaming, “Lock them up!”
