The Bigger They Come The Harder They Fall

There’s been a ton of complaining on social media about how they are giving Trump a pass on so many missteps. He can slur his words telling lie after lie for 2 straight hours and the MSM, especially the NT Times will run an article tip-toeing around the elephant in the room. Given the disastrous agenda of the Republican party (with special praise for Project 2025 for putting it in writing), it’s hard to understand why he gets the velvet glove treatment for 9 straight years. One can only conclude that MSM benefits financially with a crazy guy in the news cycle 24/7. Us consumers are eating it up.

Having said that though, it’s also true that the MSM has a history of tearing celebrities down just as fast as they skyrocketed to the top. Take Sarah Palin for example. She was the everyday wonder woman after her nomination in 2012. Republicans were so excited to have a woman on the ticket, that is until it was exposed that she’s intellectually challenged. The movie Game Change sums it up best, but the stories that eventually leaked about how her handlers had to educate her every step of the way on basic things like geography said it all. It didn’t take long for her 15 minutes of fame to extinguish. Her attempt to run for a congressional seat in 2022 failed and now she can’t get a washing detergent commercial to save her life.

Similar stories are associated with other once famous celebrities: Ron DeSantis, Rod Blagojevich, John Edwards, Gary Hart, Rudy Giuliani, Bill Cosby, Mel Gibson, Roseanne Barr, Kevin Spacey, Dan Quayle and Paris Hilton. One minute you’re on top, the next you’re not. Just because you’re the media’s darling for a couple of news cycles doesn’t mean it will last forever. The media likes to sell copy — and nowadays that includes digital copy (clicks). If a story will sell, they will run with it.

As people start abandoning ship from Team trump, I predict the MSM is going to have an absolute field day with his sudden downfall and it will be magnificent to watch. I’ve been predicting for a couple of years now that the Trump story ends the same way as another cult ended in Oregon — with Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh wheels up headed out of the country in a private jet. Time will tell and it’s possible it could even happen in the next 90 days.
