The media is in full meltdown over Trump, I'm not sure what stage of the "Alcoholics Anonymous" they would be on, but it sure seems like denial. You can hear it on all the radio shows & TV news shows, their current working thesis is that "the media failed to educate the people and point out Trump's falsehoods and that's why he won"

Say What???? How delusional can they possibly be!! It was a year long parade of Trump hit-pieces and slanted coverage against Trump.

I posted this months ago on city-data: it's not that the Trump supporters don't know he's says a whole lot of Bullsh***, it's that they don't care!! It's a huge distinction - everyone knows Trump is a business con man and egomaniac, they just don't care. They don't care at all.

What they care about is doing things differently in Washington and frankly his juvenile language is actually refreshing in an atmosphere of political correctness where if you don't follow the group speak you're labelled every name in the book. They care that someone is finally going to enforce immigration laws and renegotiate trade deals that have wiped out hundreds of factory towns.

Maybe these people will finally get it when he gets re-elected? Maybe by then they'll actually listen to the people instead of dictating their condescending holier than thou values on everybody else without looking in the mirror. Don't hold your breath

they can't afford to acknowledge the truth, it would shatter their worlds.

so most of them will go on and on with their caterwauling, completely resistant to opening their minds in even a small way.

The out of touch are still out of touch. They act like they are touched.

They will not change their ways.
They need to be disregarded as the propaganda machine promoting anarchy that they are. Better choices will be offered as it becomes clear there is a need and desire for it. The market place will solve the problem.

That's the most likely outcome, people generally fail to learn from their mistakes

And now they're claiming facebook made Trump win because they posted fake news.

Are there even any middle aged white men on facebook to begin with??

The media has added a second talking point to the election,

"we will not normalize Donald Trump"

Not to ridicule the stupidity of that, but there's nothing more normalized in the free world than becoming president of the United States. The denial is running extremely deep right now
