After last Monday's Iowa Caucus...believed by many to be a “bellwether” for who will go on to become the presidential candidate for each party....I am more convinced than ever that the media... both mainstream and otherwise...are truly an “enemy within.” Why so...because while said caucus had basically just started, The Associated Press declared a Trump victory at 7:31p.m. local time...a mere 31-minutes into the caucus...with only eight of 99 Iowa counties having reporting their results. And FOX immediately took their cue from the AP as did other media outlets, thus basing their winning call on but a mere 1,000 votes tallied in two or three precincts in a rural area of Iowa...which equated to less than one percent of the total votes yet to be counted.
Guess FOX was too greedy to pass up a ratings bonanza, hence bottom line monetary profits, not to do so. A ratings bonanza that in actuality equated to a stab in the back for the other four candidates and most especially for Iowa caucus goers themselves. How so? This announcement by FOX was heard in the precincts where caucusing was still ongoing with many folks still undecided and not yet having cast their vote, along with votes already cast but yet to be counted across the entirety of the state.
And while some will say it would not have changed the final outcome in favor of Trump, it indeed did. How so? While Trump might still have been the winner, he might not have reached the all-important 50% thresh hold which would have allowed the other candidates to be awarded more delegates and Trump less delegates...a key factor numbers wise in regards to the nominating convention.
And while my chosen candidate Ron DeSantis did finish in second place garnering nine Iowa delegates as opposed to Trump's 20; with Nikki Haley garnering eight; Vivek Ramaswarmy getting three, and Assa Hutchinson with no delegates allotted...this early call by FOX and the others was not only unfair to all the candidates, but now the Democrats are truly on their way to seeing a Trump/Biden rematch...s something the majority of Americans still do not want to see happening.
Why so...because most know well that the Democrats have had eight years to fine tune their infamous “election irregularities”...to put what amounts to “election fraud” in more politically acceptable terms.
Simply, Pate should have put the “health, safety, and welfare” of Iowans first by postponing the caucus, by at least a few days, until the system moved eastward and away from Iowa, which would have allowed for what he had to know would be a more representational vote tally across the state.
And now the media is on a Trump roll...for the liberal media it means counting on Trump losing to Biden...while the conservative, right-leaning media claims that Iowa is the start of a “domino affect” for Trump, something they claim will be akin to Ronald Reagan's landslide victory over Jimmy Carter in 1980. This was when Reagan garnered 489 Electoral College votes along with 50.8% of the popular vote as opposed to Carter's 41.0% of the popular vote and carrying just six states and Washington, D.C.
And with reporting like that both Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley have basically been deemed by FOX “talking heads” to be losers months before the nominating convention has even taken place, let alone all the primaries. And it's my opinion that this type of reporting is indeed a form of “election interference” for it leaves a bad taste in one's mouth that there's now no reason to go vote...no reason because a once trusted news source has already declared Trump the winner.
And the gullible and lazy amongst the uniformed and misinformed
Republican masses will fall into line and do as FOX is basically,
albeit veiled, telling them to do...as in only vote Trump...no matter this truly not funny under the dangerous weather conditions comment Trump made before the caucus started.
But it's not just the media “talking heads” that are the problem, but so too are some of the print reporters. Take the case of an article that appeared in last Thursday's “Townhall Tipsheet” where Matt Vespa reported on possible Trump VP picks. He listed four possible VP choices, Sen. Tim Scott (R-NC); Gov, Krisi Noem (R-SD); Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL); and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY). But of these four mentioned, I believe Trump is more likely to choose a women to counter Kamala Harris on the Biden ticket.
So why did Matt Vespa basically write South Dakota's governor out as a VP pick...because and I quote, “Noem caved on trans athletes,” something which is beyond a shadow of a doubt not true.
Let me briefly explain just how the media twists the facts to meet its political agenda by using the above stated example. If Matt Vespa had done his research instead of buying into the propaganda FOX and others are spewing out, he would have found that SD-46, banned trans youth from participating in school sports consistent with their gender “identity.” Forced upon vote in 2021 to veto a bill addressing this issue, Noem did so because of called into question verbal “legalize”...”legalize” that would have opened up South Dakota to numerous leftist initiated lawsuits...lawsuits that might well have bankrupted the state.
In other words, Gov. Kristi Noem first via executive order overrode the previous “legalized” flawed bill giving herself some time to rewrite and replace said bill with what was unchallenged wording, thus putting into law the very thing Matt Vespa said she caved to.
I bring this up to show that it's not just the left who are influencing the upcoming election courtesy of words written or spoken, but that our side is too. In the case of Townhall's Matt Vespa, this involves a possible VP choice...a choice which while somewhat veiled could, he hopes, see his piece as a way to help sway those of us currently supporting Ron DeSantis or Nikki Haley, to cross over to the Trump side.
Simply, unless the media in general is reigned in regarding their overtly biased and partisan reporting...unless election fraud itself is dealt with...which reality shows it has not even started to be...we will continue to see the media complicit in dictating who the candidates will be, meaning we will never see a fair unbiased election again. A lack of ethics, common sense, and in Trump's case decorum, will surely see to that. Case closed.
