Trump Panics; 60 Minutes "Bombshell" Report Just Hours Away

[red dog 1]

[Ocelot II]

1. What's the "bombshell," or is this just more hype from some vlogger?

[DENVERPOPS]

9. Some of the articles/commentaries here on DU

are as mis-leading as most of the Republican's crap.......Sensational Titles that have little or nothing to do with the Titles used....

[BaronChocula]

15. I wish that sensationalism worked as well for progressives

as it does for cons. Of course they have it easier. Most Americans will err on the side of the Old Establishment that props up, well, cons.

Just makes me recall how easy it was to get ignoramuses to repeat "I just don't know anything about her" during the election.

[AZ8theist]

10. Click bait

[Oopsie Daisy]

25. Maddening.

[Oopsie Daisy]

29. All caps yellow text is it big clue, too.

[moondust]

2. From my TV guide:

"Exploring how the Trump administration is using governmental power to target personal enemies of Donald Trump;"

[Hekate]

12. In other words, not a bombshell

[Srkdqltr]

3. Hype. Its all caps.

[Disaffected]

4. Gag.

UTube is infested with this kind of hype. Trump (or someone or something else) "panics", "freaking out", "devastated", "finished", "game over", "changes everything", "bombshell" etc. etc. etc.

All for a few click and view payments.

[Kingofalldems]

5. Any ideas on what the bombshell is?

[WarGamer]

16. I'm sure it's something yuuuuge

[Kingofalldems]

22. Right on time.

I always knew it.

[applegrove]

27. One of the judical experts interviewed by 60 Minutes

said that getting something ($100 million in legal services) in exchange for letting said law firms to continue to get government legal cases is blatantly a bribe.

[Kingofalldems]

28. Well that is a bombshell.

Might have to wait a few years to prosecute.

[applegrove]

30. We know. Don't know why some in this discussion don't want Democrats

to watch.

[Kingofalldems]

32. Well there is the RW troll downthread who mocks the idea.

[applegrove]

35. Yup. The trolls do not always try and be found out.

[Norrrm]

41. All these free services have value. Could they be considered income?

Would the 'donors' claim tax benefits for such 'free' services?

[Ilsa]

6. Sick of this: "Trump Rages After Hearing Rachel Maddow's SCATHING...

...Takedown of his First 100 Days - Political Voices Network". Then a vlog is presented where no one has any proof that F47 ever heard anything RM ever said. Just BS.

[FiveFifteen]

7. This is shite

Sick of clickbait hype. End this crap.

[JI7]

8. I know these headlines are exaggerated and partly clickbait

but that's what the right wing did with Biden and Harris. So while I did have a problem with it at first I no longer really care. And see how seeing many headlines like that can influence low info casual voters .

But if people are going to post it here I would like a more accurate description 9f what it's about.

[WarGamer]

17. But here's the difference.

DU is 100% Democrats...

There's no one here to persuade or cajole...

THUS... this kind of BS is just propaganda.

And deploying propaganda amongst the base is even worse.

This kind of crap has a place... like X or FB or blue sky where MAYBE an undecided or disgusted GOP'er might ingest it...

NOT HERE.

[JI7]

18. That's why I said if people are going to post it here

they should give a more accurate description of what it's about.

[WarGamer]

19. I believe some people here receive monetary value for posting content to generate clicks.

I could be wrong.

[Kingofalldems]

34. Well you should report it to the admins.

[Wonder Why]

36. I've made thousands on this site.

Posts, that is. Not dollars. Haven't even made pennies. Of course, the pennies will soon be worth more than the dollars because the recycling value will be more for tin than paper.

[Skittles]

20. HA

no, it isn't"100% Democrats" .....there are quite a few "fly-under-the-radars" here................

[WarGamer]

21. so the RW trolls that pop in and out might be susceptible to content from Meidas Touch or LP?

That's pretty silly.

[Skittles]

23. you're the one who said 100%

and I detect them very well

[WarGamer]

38. The biggest trolls are the ones who spend 24/7 accusing others of being trolls.

Hmmm...

[Skittles]

40. how would you know 24x7

unless you are here 24x7

[Kingofalldems]

26. And very close.

[Skittles]

33. indeed

I always wonder how pathetic their lives must be that this is how they amuse themselves.

[WarGamer]

39. #38

[NoMoreRepugs]

11. In other news Trumpy was is and always will be a ButtWipe. Now that's TRUE.

[B.See]

13. Maybe the problem is

reports on the s*** Trump does and says SHOULD be bombshells.

[Greg_In_SF]

14. I've got $1000.00

on no ‘bombshell’.

[Steven Maurer]

24. A "bombshell" would be something MAGA would get mad about...

Maybe news that Trump didn't rape girls or promoted a black guy (not a white guy) based only on his skin color.

Any other villainy he did they'd just cheer.

[sop]

31. These kinds of videos have taken over DU.

[calimary]

37. There he is with his mouth open. Again.
