This crack-up in right-wing media is coming less than a year into Trump's term--a year in which he has in fact been doing lots of good things and can be assumed to be gearing up for much more. A competent supporting media would be cheering and egging him on in precise ways.
And, let us remember, all this is due to an inability to turn away from the shiny object of Jew hatred. They could have moved to displace Jews and change Israel policy after Trump's term, betting on its success, but they thought they could hijack that term. They failed, but
significantly lessened the chances of Trump's accomplishments, whatever they may be, lasting beyond his term. The 2028 election campaign will likely be dominated by demands that the "Kirk files" be released.
@Imperius__13 So, all the fighting and accusation slinging in RW media is due to patronage netowrks--which doesn't seem to be a very common topic of discussion.
@Imperius__13 Am I wrong about Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens speaking about them regularly before audiences of millions who presumably want to hear that? And am I wrong about other podcasters (Kelly, Walsh,...) only very gingerly touching on these topics for fear of enraging that audience?
@Imperius__13 Because who and what comes after Trump is greatly affected by it.
@Imperius__13 I'm not doing media theory--this isn't a graduate student class. I'm following Trump and systematic efforts by his supposed supporters to sabotage him.
@Imperius__13 I'm just tracking and tagging. These people have chosen their path, but maybe Vance hasn't.
@Imperius__13 It hasn't always been this exact way.
@Imperius__13 What if it is that simple even if other things are happening as well?
@Imperius__13 I'm not against it but it's not what I'm doing.
@Imperius__13 It's what I have a handle on on X right now and it seems to me important--I wouldn't assign it a numerical value.
@Imperius__13 Fuentes is irrelevant since he can be easily ignored. Carlson and Kelly support Owens, so if you think that's helpful for Vance (none of it matters for Trump--they tried to turn him and failed), I guess we'll have to see.
@Imperius__13 You're back to "guys" again, while I keep telling you I'm following a specific thread. Vance has shown himself incapable of coherently answering semi-literate groyper questions. There will be many questions for him about that and his good friend Tucker--
@Imperius__13 of course, maybe he can call those asking those questions "scumbags."
@Imperius__13 These discussions quickly become pointless because tendentious terms invariably get introduced. Making up and disseminating crazy accusations against Jews and Israel is bad for anyone because many people don't want to vote for vile lunatics. There should be a hardline against
@Imperius__13 revising the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. It's a fairly low bar.
@Imperius__13 Bizarre question since the focus of my posting has been the Vice-President's good friend, whom he protects fiercely, injecting it insistently and crazily into American politics.
@Imperius__13 At this point I'm going to say that you can focus on what you like and I'll focus on what I like.
@Imperius__13 I don't plan to find out.
@Imperius__13 No need to worry--after all, what, exactly, can happen? Some people like me less? So what?
@Imperius__13 Yes, this is part of it. The only way to execute it is relentless exposure. If I can find ways of doing that better, I will.
@Imperius__13 You don't have to be Jewish to refrain from joining a lynch mob, real life or online.
@Imperius__13 But the implication is that every position must correspond to the interest of some group in actual or imminent conflict with other groups.
@Imperius__13 No, institutions have their own governance. The police can do their job even if they're of different ethnicities.
@Imperius__13 On X I just try to bring things that seem important into some focus.
@Imperius__13 On X I don't have a plan. If something that seems more important than wht I'm following now turns up, I'll follow that.
@Imperius__13 Do you have to try?
