My unease with Trump is not because I have been manipulated by the media. I know that is the "party line", but it's false, self-serving and a pathetic attempt by Trump partisans to deflect legitimate criticism of their Golden Boy.
"The media" didn't need to distort anything when Trump talked about assaulting women. Those were his own words, verbatim. And before you scream about taking things out of context, the context was irrelevant.
"The media" didn't need to distort anything by pointing out that Trump refuses to distance himself from a senate candidate with multiple, credible accusations of rape and sexual improprieties with children.
"The media" didn't need to distort anything when they reported that all the intelligence agencies of the USG unanimously agreed that Russia tried to interfere in the elections in favor of Trump (to be fair, I do not believe that Trump or any of his high level people were aware or / coordinating. The truth will out, however, if otherwise)
"The media" doesnt need to distort anything when the POTUS himself gets in twitter feuds with the fathers of pro atheletes.
Claiming "media bias" as the reason why thoughtful conservatives are against Trump is as false as Hillary's "vast right wing conspiracy". It's just the other side of the spin cycle.
For a president who claims to be draining the swamp, he sure has a lot of millionaires in his cabinet, though....

OK when you state you don't have time to read a lengthy reply you prove my point Americans are too busy to pay attention that a snapshot and sound bites can drive your opinion.....not sure what your age is but this characteristic millennials. When you don't have the patience to read everything or the time to stay focused on important subjects you miss a lot of critical data.
On your point on Trump you missed the point because I too have seen everything the biased liberal media can dig up and see nothing of a perverted or sickening nature which has been the status quo.....I see a normal man making normal for most men comments....Joe Biden on the other hand groping every women and even underaged girls publicly or are you too busy to pay attention to those things or unable to read the body language and facial expressions of the women he has groped?
If you are a liberal say it...then I can better understand your stance I am a conservative who believes in accountability and ethics....if you respond with your "too busy" " don't have time to read" response again I will be amused because you had a rather lengthy response which speaks volumes....let us here know your political stance instead of passive aggressiveness that screams you are.
Finally the liberal media are the ones attacking Trump but you are telling me you came to the conclusion without media bias because you saw a media sound bites that highlights something Trump said but no coverage or sound bites of many women who say Trump was extremely respectful towards them. You my friend are going to have to explain your "I came to my own conclusion" when the biased media are the only ones spinning this!!
