The media gave Trump free publicity (as usual)

Was it necessary for the media to give Trump free publicity for the t-shirt he is selling after the arraignment? I sarcastically replied to several tweets and asked if they were going to give comparable publicity to Democratic Party merchandise.

Pathetic take by the New York Times on the Trump indictments

It’s not victor’s justice, it’s holding a lawbreaker accountable. The Times was wrong to even bring this up.

Tweets by Nate Silver and Matt Glassman on the GOP

The GOP has turned to using the courts,voter suppression, and state legislatures to enact their extremist policies on issues such as abortion which are opposed by the majority.

Wins based on the electoral college rather than the popular vote will undermine faith in elections. All 25 presidential elections in the 1900s had the same result in the popular vote and electoral college. Two of the six elections in the 2000s have been won by the popular vote loser. Trump lost the popular vote by an unprecedented almost three million votes.
