Hysterical Media (Funny or Absurd) Headlines for July 14th:
Bottom Line: I've ID'd some in the media as generally being Godless, soulless and slanderous (the Godless/soulless thing is a theory...The slanderous part - that's pretty real). I've decided to grab some of the most outrageous headlines to illustrate the point of just how outrageous it's become. Here are today's examples. For my commentary on these headlines click the audio below.
Trumpworld's Russia Lies Are a Major National Security Risk
Matthew Yglesias, Vox
Trump's Plan to Make Voters Older, Wealthier & Whiter
Scott Lemieux, Reuters
The Closing of the Republican Mind
Thomas Edsall, New York Times
Kid Rock's Senate Run Is a Terrifying New Normal
Amanda Petrusich, The New Yorker
The material here is amazing and wonderful in it's absurdity simultaneously. Once again, if you look at these through the prism of Donald Trump being President, and more elected Republicans serving in the United States than at any point since the 1920's...it's pretty hilarious! The air of desperation, advocacy and instructions for their "resistance" is comical. These people really do take themselves completely seriously!
