You know what really truly keeps me awake at night? Obama gave the military and executive branch totalitarian control over the media, should they want to use it (ignoring the fact that the CIA had already subverted the media with Project Mocking Bird). Yet, here we are with the media having 92% of their coverage of Trump being negative. He quite literally has the legal power to stop that, but he doesn't.
Why?
Is the disinformation actually part of a larger plan? Is he actually just a good person who doesn't want to abuse the power he was granted? Is the executive branch no longer in control and military intelligence is subverting the White House?
I just don't know anymore
It's likely just nepotism. He's one man and the msm is heavily liberal. Hillary had reporters running stories by her first before releasing them in the wikileaks. One guy even called himself a hack in the emails and was submitting the article to her for editing.
Look at the shit standards of VoA

Any senator w/ interns can push whatever story they like. Trump outrage sells. Hey after you get that coffee can you call up my friend at whatever news org and have them push this story? It's literally that easy. Anonymous sources used to me much rarer in journalism. Now "anonymous sources" are a daily occurrence. "White house insiders" "Sources close to the president" . etc etc
A heavily liberal msm will always be to the advantage of the left regardless of who's in office.
in the wikileaks
You are the first non-Alex Jones person I've seen say "the wikileaks". That phrasing just feels odd to me.
"anonymous sources" are a daily occurrence
That one really bugs me and sows mistrust in legitimate anonymous sources who may be trying to point out serious issues.
The timing of this was even whackier

Why slow down when you can double down?
