As President Trump shined through the first days of his trip to Saudi Arabia and Isreal the MSM tried to always focus back to the Comey, Flynn and Russian issues. As leaders of both those countries made it clear they welcomed the new U.S. President and policy, our media wanted to change the topic. How many times have you heard the Obama failed foreign policy brought up. It was clear to all that eight years of appeasement and apology did not work. There is a new sheriff in town and the game is changed. What a shame the MSM can’t take time to acknowledge it.
Why has Trump done so well this trip? Three reasons. One, he brings new policies and changes to the Obama America foreign policy. Second, he brings leadership and toughness. The world needs an America who leads. Third, he stayed on script, reading notes, using the teleprompter and was off unfiltered twitter.
Manchester England:
What kind of barbarians attack a concert attended by children? If Trump can get the Arab world to risk their lives and unite to fight and end this barbarism he will have achieved an incredible and historical act that will leave a lasting and more peaceful earth. He appears to be attempting that and isolating Iran in the process. Some would say impossible to do, but life is interupted all the time by people doing what others say is impossible. Let’s hope.
A Bad Ratings Week for Fox:
Last week as we reported daily Fox kept falling. By weeks end they had lost the week in total. Msnbc won Primetime, CNN won the key Demo group (25-49) and Fox barely won total day.
Two reasons. First, the anti Trump stories all week drove left and anti viewers to Msnbc and CNN to hear “impeachment” news. Second, the replacement shows on Fox are not drawing.
Last night’s coverage of the Manchester bombing anchored by Shep Smith did not help. He is not a conversative favorite or fan and his on the sir statement that “NBC is breaking news” with the bombing was deplorable.
Friday cable ratings are at the bottom of this blog.
Really Monica?
Monica Lewinsky reacting to the death of Roger Ailes said that he ruined her life. His dream to get a story like hers was her nightmare she said.
Monica, Roger and Fox were not your problem. It was your action and the lack of a moral compass for the man in the oval office that caused your problems.
