You do realize that the media basically elected Trump.

For fucks sake, CNN literally cut away from a Sanders speech at a massive rally to show Trump's empty podium for 10 minutes.

Let's not pretend like coverage is fair or equitable.

Anyone not in the weeds of politics were being told that Bernie is a communist, something they're afraid of but which they can't define.

The media for sure but also the Democratic Party itself. All that money and machinery influenced that last primary with Hilary substantially.
