    It is very unAmerican to say the MSM needs to be destroyed. Think about that for a moment. That is incredibly authoritarian.

    I will agree that people need to stop relying on propaganda from MSM to supplant their independent judgment. Best way to do that is avoid sources that play into your biases. Everyone has blind spots. Better to watch sources that are more likely to expose those rather than those that confirm biases.
    The current version of the media. NOT the media per se and for all time.

    I don't think....and I'd bet 90%+ of conservatives agree....that the press should be abolished or hamstrung in some way. I want to see the media truly fair & balanced AND! willing to sit on a story, at least for some time, if publishing it could compromise the US (especially national security). There was a time when the press was tough, like Walter Cronkite, but you felt they actually loved their country and truly wanted what was best for it. Today the lamestream libtard media is just hell bent on destroying the US. So, yeah, the MSM needs to be torn down to its foundation, and then rebuilt in the image of a "Frank Capra" press. (yeah, technically he was a filmmaker, but his news reels were media-like).

    I'm glad he did! they have been sponsoring terrorists. The muslim nations are the ones that did this first this week. I love it!

    "U.S. officials were blindsided by Saudi Arabia's decision to sever diplomatic ties with Qatar in a coordinated move with Egypt, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), current and former officials in Washington told Reuters. The United States was not informed of the decision until just before it was announced, the State Department said. Even as Trump applauded the Arab countries' move, the Pentagon on Tuesday renewed praise of Qatar for hosting U.S. forces and its "enduring commitment to regional security."

    Even McCain, who criticized Obama's leadership, acknowledges that Trump is a worse leader.

    Re: President Trump

    Insomuch that obummer ram-rodded a socialist agenda through, and Trump is not undoing it very fast, I would somewhat agree. obummer was a better leader at destroying the country than Trump has been restoring it.

    Of course, have to remember that obummer is a member of the DC Establishment and that means both major parties are in kahootz (how do you spell that word?) and were more willing to help get his agenda thru. Trump has enemies on both sides of the aisle, the old fossil McCain an example, who will fight Trump's agenda. Regardless which party they are in, the Establishment supports itself. It's kind of like all the P5 conferences "fighting" each other for supremacy, but banding together to keep others out of the club.

    McCain has lost his mind the last few years. He has been a rhino for a very long time.

    And you don't think the "King and Queen with no clothes" Obama and Hillary didn't receive and knowing them probably demanded the same?

    You are lying to yourself.

    This is the problem with both sides of the aisle. If someone's doing something stupid, wrong, illegal, etc., "He/she did it first!" is not an adequate response (unless the responder is a first grader, and probably not even then).
