Media coverage of Obamacare in 2010 vs Trump's wall today

Post by bmw » Sun Jan 13, 2019 8:33 pm

Saw this chart today in an anti-wall piece by CNN today:

Image

Immediately when I saw those numbers I knew they looked awfully familiar. That is because they are - they very closely mirror public approval of Obamacare before it was passed in 2010.

Image

Yet I don't seem to recall CNN back then posting daily articles opposing Obamacare on the ground that Americans don't want it like they are today with Trump's wall. Can you even begin to imagine how CNN would cover the wall if Trump were to get it built the same way Obamacare got passed? ie, by passing a bill through the House that nobody wanted and then ramming it through the Senate, on Christmas Eve, during a snowstorm, to avoid reconciliation before a specific seat in the Senate constituted a 41st vote to block the legislation (ie, Scott Brown)? It was a spectacle then, and the media was perfectly fine with it. If Trump did anything like that today, the folks at CNN would be fit to be tied.

Just another example of glaring media bias.

Closely mirror used loosely... the wall is 5-10 points more unpopular at each end than Obamacare was. Obamacare’s effects are a hell of a lot easier to quantify too so public opinion probably wouldn’t flip the way it did for Obamacare.

The average support in both instances is within a point or two, and margin of opposition is double digits. So are you suggesting that if people opposed the wall by a 51-40 margin instead of 56-39 that the media and the left (redundant, I know) would magically support a wall?

When will you all wake up and realize that this is all propaganda/distraction/entertainment?

The government and everyone in it is merely a puppet for the higher ups: Rothschilds, Royal Family, Freemasons, etc.

Trump is a great actor.
There is no *real* border wall debate.

There will be a wall though, but it won't be to "keep out immigrants", if you get what I mean.
Big things are to occur in the coming months.
Start preparing for 6 months with no power..now..and not being entertained by "News".

So, your angle is to take a CNN analysis of one thing, and compare it to a RealClearPolitics analysis of another thing, and expect to make a point out of the mishmash. :rollin :rollin :rollin

Right, think what you want.
It only affects you.

However, I will point you towards the 93 page document the government actually released a month ago about preparing for an extended blackout.
I've known about this for a year.
Don't be an ignorant sheep.

Project Blue Beam will be THE endgame for the NWO and the biggest false flag attack on all of mankind.

Aliens do not exist. Please remember that sentence very very well.

Which place? The Michigan Buzzboard?

The meant-to-insult moniker “weirdos” is often sighted as those who do not agree with previous posters.

BTW if there’s a mega electrical black out in the US it’s probably due to Putin. As he’s already suspected in other big but less sweeping blackouts in our nation. So called trial runs. Well encompassed in Russia’s and the former Soviet government’s publically announced campaign to “destroy” The United States “from within.”

And now the very evidentury info arrives that President Trump has been/is being investigated as a possible Russian asset. So then - Trump might already know of a sweeping black out coming. Because at the very least he's hoping for some issue to distract from the boiling self-poured water in which he’s currently sputtering and drowning.

Yes... here. Doomsday preppers, people squawking about "the Illuminati" and "NWO" and "false flags". It's hilarious.
