The msm has been on a “Trump supporter’s are ignorant” rant this week, and we have seen it parroted here on the board by several libs. Why?
They are frustrated. They have trotted out every trick that has worked on various GOP candidates in the past, they have retried the same tricks again, and they have even thrown out a few new ones, but always it has failed.
This just does not add up to those who have lived in the swamp status quo for so long. How could this be?
It MUST be due to their extreme ignorance, right?
What the Left (and the msm is the leader of the Left these days) continues to miss is that Trump’s supporters do not have complete trust in Trump, they have developed complete distrust of the msm.
After being caught in so many, many lies (fake news), and after having given up even a remote sense of neutrality and fairness in their coverage, the msm can no longer hurt President Trump. They have inoculated him.
"classism."
You don't have to look hard to see upwardly mobile, right-thinking "progressives" looking down upon poor people. When Hillary spoke of "deplorables," do you think she was thinking of wealthy businessmen who support Trump? She had some others in mind and her comment isn't one that is uncommon within her party, despite the rhetoric.
A century ago, the base of the party was union workers and rural farmers. Now the influential base is increasingly an urban, upwardly mobile class. It was probably inevitable that this all would happen.
It is the media that we mistrust completely rather than Trump that we support unquestioningly.
