The problem is that after the clarification people continued with the existing narrative. Yes he's not a polished speaker and confusing.
I just know, I kind of ignored the story assuming he said there was a terrorist attack. Then I saw the footage, the clarifications and all that. Yet was still watching stories on TV and in the news that were brand new pushing the original interpretation. I even saw stories pushing it with a brief dismissive reference to the clarification.
I just think this does more harm than good and it is dishonest. It's creating the divide.
The whole issue with Trump is the media presented the reality of an America where Trump could not win the election. They didn't report on reality, they presented how they wanted reality to be. This in turn actually created a reality that allowed Trump to win. If the voting public and the democratic party understood what the reality was, they would have won.
There has been zero change or understanding in this. They are making the same mistakes and the problem is, in the face of reality being shattered they are now continuing with the idea that Trump is the four horseman of the apocalypse and the reality is that everything about him has to be absolutely awful, he will fail and bring everything crashing down.
Where this goes, is not going to be to a good place. Some people have gone crazy. Trump winning was not reality or real world. So they now think it's already the end of the world. They aren't confronting that mistake and so want to interpret everything and in fact make everything point in the end of the world direction and you know what, they will probably make things worse. Those not of this view are not going to buy into the fake reality people think they live in. It's going to be more divided and more hateful. Say they might get Trump kicked out of office or killed. That will make things so much worse. It'll be the end of democracy in America.
