There was a rally not long ago where there was an issue with the podium. Some headline made it sound like he was unstable and shaking and had to hold on to the podium for stability. In reality the podium was wobbly and he quipped something like “oh no, it’s leaning to the left”. It was legitimately funny and a prime example of what his base finds charming. Yet still some clickbait headline tried to spin it in a bad way. Fucking infuriating.
With all the valid reasons to criticize Trump it is unfortunate when the media plays up stupid things for headlines. Just distracts from credible complaints
My thoughts exactly. Things have gotten so absurd ‘OMG Turnip sed WHAT?’ that it makes it all the more difficult to sort out and find the actually bad things. With all the noise it just makes it easier for his followers to claim whatever is the latest was ‘out of context/misinterpreted’.
I mean, that was clearly what he was going for, and a news writer took the bait.
This is the kind of shit conservatives point to when they attack the “mainstream media.”

Thanks for showing the video. Yup, I hate that guy, but the podium was indeed wobbly.
