It is November 2024, and major media has already failed in covering the Trump administration.
For instance, Mike Johnson and Tom Homan have now admitted the mass deportations Trump promised to get the presidency won't happen.
It's a broken promise media won't cover to avoid angering Trump voters.

The new Trump immigration policy is merely to deport illegal immigrants with a criminal record. That is what Obama and Biden did. If that had been known by voters to be the Trump plan, there would have been no basis to distinguish the two parties on immigration and Trump might have lost. So he lied.

So what do you guys think? Will this assuage the Latino voters who did vote for Trump? Will Trumps MAGA base be upset? How is this going to be accomplished? Will Trump clear out the jails to make room for journalists or his perceived enemies? Was this just a ruse to get the rubes to vote for him so the Republicans can move on with the real agenda? Emptying out the treasury and killing off entitlement programs? And lastly, do we just have to give up on MSM and acknowledge that they are ultimately the servants of the corporations who own them?

Love to know your thoughts.

2. I think there will be detention camps

I think there will be some brown people rounded up and placed in those detention camps. Certainly not all immigrants/brown people. The fascists will go for the minority that will cause the most pain and fear to the rest of us. We will all be left wondering, will we be next? We will be afraid to do anything. Look at the doctors in Texas and Georgia who are afraid of being arrested if they help a woman having a miscarriage. They are afraid to do anything.

These detention camps will also cause hundreds of liberal human civil servants involved to quit. Getting liberal human civil servants to quit is also why the fascist is nominating extremists for his fascist cabinet. How could anyone but a Magat work for Gaetz or Kennedy? It's the first step in getting rid of the "deep state." Shock and Awe.

3. I am beginning to think Trump said everything and anything just to get elected

He talked out of his ass and made declarations most of which he won’t be able to to follow through on

No way was his ego going to allow him to get beaten by a smart black woman. So he went scorched earth on the hate and revenge.
