The Media is Indeed the Problem

I know, latest poll shows that 81% of Americans are not satisfied with handling of ISIS. But, what do they know? Do they have intelligence (both kinds) we don’t have? By whipping them into a frenzy and then using the resulting polls to perpetuate their whipping, the media is just creating a self-fulfilling prophesy. Does the public really think that Obama is ignoring what is happening? Does the public want Marshall Dillon to go get’em like W did in 2002. Fortunately, the Obama administration does not govern by poll and shouldn’t be encouraged to do so especially by using the low-information voting poll as justification. And Herr Drumpf is benefiting from this. Trump’s outrageous demagoguery is again getting more press coverage than it deserves because the media is in love with his bullshit. Is he running for president or chancellor? He well knows that it takes a 24 month screening before any refugee arriving in the US can be released into the population, but chooses to ignore it. And the media gives him a forum. I can understand Fox, but MSNBC ought to be ashamed especially supporting that numbskull Joe Scarborough. MSNBC should send him packing.
