Stories that talk about all the bad things Trump has done are only seen by the left. This makes the left hate Trump and his supporters more, while the right feels increasingly “oppressed” by this hate. They run to their savior Trump and the viscous cycle continues. More media presence for him only adds to his influence, negative press possibly moreso than positive.

People on the left should ignore Trump and talk about real issues. It is the only way to defeat a sith.

    Well I’d argue there is a danger to that. If only the most extreme things get media attention, then all his ideas will get more radical so that he gets the coverage he needs to politically survive. He is the absolute number version (mathematic function) of the political world.

    I am kinda seeing a parallel to how Nazis came to murder millions of their own people - essentially a continuing evolution of crazy ideas to maintain political popularity. It’s insane that it works.
