Let me get this straight.
You guys on the right belittled and mocked everyone on the left for years and then elected one of the most brazen jackasses on the planet as a middle finger to the left, and you want to talk about karma now that Trumps feet are being held to the fire?
Cry me a river.
And as always, a nice day to you too.
You play the victim when the entire establishment mocks and demonizes the political opposition of the left.

Clinton was ever only accused of raping one woman — Juanita Broaddrick. And basically all you're saying is that you find her credible and you find the dozen or so women who accused Trump of various assaults/inappropriate sexual contacts to be not credible.
Right?
That's your opinion and you're entitled to it but it's been no more proven that Clinton raped Broaddrick than that Trump assaulted the women who have accused him. You see that right?

I consume almost no media. Its all biased, and I don't have time to read a dozen stories to try to understand it better. So I get quite a bit of news from ATS, as my aggregate site. I get a fairly wide breadth of news.
I hate to break it to you but ATS is pretty right wing in its news reporting. Just because a few liberals like myself try to maintain a balance doesn't really mean this isn't true either.
Can you tell me where I can view Sinclair's 7pm news broadcast?
I don't know where you live; nor do I know what local affiliates are owned by Sinclair Broadcasting in your area even if you told me. Though it seems to me you can Google that info yourself since you should know those things yourself.
Im not ignoring them. Im stating that they spend 30 minutes a day relaying scripted news from New York, or reporting local murders, covering the weather, and telling me how the local high school volleyball team did at least weeks tournament. Im not ignoring them...i choosing to not consider them. But if you really want...sure. Ok. Sinclair gets local news, and may spend a couple of minutes a day covering a story where political slant is even possible. Ill squint really, really hard and try to see your point here.
Sinclair, the pro-Trump, conservative company taking over local news, explained
The video is just the most recent example of Sinclair stations’ strong partisan tilt. A recent paper by Emory University political scientists Gregory Martin and Josh McCrain found that when Sinclair buys a local station, its local news program begin to cover more national and less local politics, the coverage becomes more conservative, and viewership actually falls — suggesting that the rightward tilt isn’t enacted as a strategy to win more viewers but as part of a persuasion effort.
So you are agreeing its slanted, then?
That is all I needed to hear. Thank you.
Everything is slanted; this is inevitable as humans are biased creatures. So it reasons our biases will show through in reporting. What needs to happen is the other side needs to rejoin reality so that it can pull the slant back down to a more moderate level. Stop declaring every piece of news that is negative of Trump "fake news". Own some bad news. Things like that.

Could you imagine the outage on ATS if someone made a thread threatening violence and suggesting all conservatives should be eliminated and/or removed from the United States?
Lol. You guys are unreal.

OP didn't do that!
You are exactly the type he is talking about!
No wonder you feel so threatened?
So enjoy your smug arrogance now, the hand of fate will not flinch when it's time to pummel your dumb ass.

The ends justify the means. Sure doing some questionable things is OK as long as TRUMP is removed. Perhaps the rules were bent a bit, perhaps things haven't gone like they would otherwise, but as long as the end result is TRUMP being removed, this is all OK.
That is the way the left seems to justify the actions of those who are working so hard to remove the POTUS.
And I say "the left" meaning those who oppose Trump to the point of action. So if you aren't "left", but you think that what's going on is just super, then you fit in with the "left" I speak of.
This is not to say that I think Trump is the greatest or even good, he is however, the duly elected representative of the country I reside in. This country that has many things in place to protect the process that enabled him to rise to this level. When you try to usurp those "things", you are going against everything those things stand for. Everything our system stands for.
Now, to the warning.
If you think that ousting Trump will end this kind of behavior, you are an idiot. This type of thinking and way of doing things will become the new norm. when a true to form lefty gets elected, you will see massive backlash, hookers coming out of the woodwork to tell of their sexual escapades with the leader, all sorts of horrible accusations against them, likely to the point of an strong push to impeach, based on nothing more than a strong dislike of the person. You can't do stupid # like this and hope that it won't come back around to slap the stupid right out of you later. Life just isn't like that. KARMA is a real thing. It may not be scientific, but it seems to work wonders.
So enjoy your smug arrogance now, the hand of fate will not flinch when it's time to pummel your dumb ass.
And as always, have a super day!

What did everyone think was going to happen after this past election? When you have two pieces of trash like Clinton and Trump running for president it should be obvious the other side is going to thoroughly investigate whoever wins.
You're fooling yourself if you think the same thing wouldn't have happened with Clinton. If you wanted Hillary in handcuffs, you probably should have voted for her.

You can only diverge from reality so much before there's a snap back.

There's been 3 in the running for a long time, but I've finally come to a firm conclusion of who I cast my vote for "the most absolutely clueless yet prolifically yammering poster" active on these boards today.
Don't say Networkdude didn't warn ya'.
E.O.s--Weaponization of the DOJ--Weaponization of the MSM & Social Media--War At Will...these things will haunt everyone.
