Years back, I remember marveling at the post-debate polls. In debates I thought Mitt Romney won, the media told me Romney had done terrible. In debates I thought Romney had lost, the media told me he did well. And so on for other candidates. The polls said it, so I thought I was out of sync with the populace, and the people were cueing in on something different from me.

I now realize it was all bullshit, including even the polls of public opinion. If the Republican won, they claimed he lost to blunt the effect. If he lost, they claimed he did OK, to encourage him to be weak and ineffectual in the next debate.

In the last debate, Donald looked Presidential, looked amused with the race, and dominated Hillary completely. Hillary looked weak, at times lost, and was constantly bitter and revolting. Donald killed it, and the media is telling me he lost.

The extent to which Trump is dominating, combined with the extent to which the media lies about him, is really revealing everything about the corrupt media and the rigged system. Everything, from polls, to editorials, to even cold hard facts, is all a lie.

Case in point – this:

Hillary Clinton, Mocking and Taunting in Debate, Turns the Tormentor She mansplained him. “Let me translate that if I can,” Hillary Clinton said dryly after Donald J. Trump talked up his tax plan. She interrupted him. When Mr. Trump boasted of the gilded Las Vegas hotel that bears his name, Mrs. Clinton leaned into her microphone. “Made with Chinese steel,” she quipped with a smile. She mocked him… He repeatedly gave up chances to respond to pointed taunts from Mrs. Clinton, who dominated the confrontation from its opening moments, needling and baiting him over and over… At the moments when Mr. Trump did revert to his old, familiar self, he seemed unsteady and defensive… Mr. Trump struggled to keep pace… As the debate wore on, Mrs. Clinton kept finding opportunities to make Mr. Trump seem smaller and smaller, or at least more puerile. She noted that after a stretch without an Emmy for his reality TV show, Mr. Trump had claimed that the awards show was rigged against him — just as he now says about the election. Mr. Trump did not disappoint. “Should have gotten it,” he said bitterly… And provoked he was. “Such a nasty woman,” Mr. Trump grumbled.

It is astonishing. Trump wiped the floor with Hillary while alternating between bemusement and sternly asserting control where he wanted to. Hillary looked weak, angry, and desperate at all times. Even the Emmy line was so funny I burst out laughing. She tries to criticize him, and he completely ignores her and emphasizes with a smile, that Emmy should have been his. That entire New York Times piece is utter fantasy – complete bullshit.

Someday, centuries hence, if people want to know what was wrong with our culture, they will need only look at this race, and the coverage it received in the media. Our media has so completely detached themselves from the truth, that whatever percent of the populace listens to them , they are not just uninformed – they are misinformed.

What hope does civilization have, with a media like this?
