So Donald Trump took center stage last night at the Republican convention and of course stole the show. Naturally the news media wasn't happy.

Trump started out telling the story of his shooting, and said "I only want to tell this once; it's too painful" as is customary for people who have been through a trauma. He didn't really tell us anything we didn't already know, but he showed real gratitude to the men and women who protected him, and he showed the greatest gratitude to God Almiighty who spared his life. I'm sure the media wasn't too keen on that.

He made several calls for unity, but then proceeded to go through a list of mistakes and outrages by the current Administration (only mentioning Mr. Biden by name once or twice so as to tone things down).

He concluded with a soaring appeal to America, telling us the future is ours if we take it.

Trump started off sounding tired and through much of it he didn't seem to have the old spark, but it popped out every now and then. He spoke directly to folks in the crowd when they shouted something. He joked. He baited the media. But overall he seemed a bit listless. I suspect he's been on painkillers and so probably wasn't at his best. Still he did a fine job.

The media immediately started to "fact check" his "lies" (their exact words on PBS and on Scripps News). They claim he lied when about vote fraud in 2020. Yet the Secretary of State in Georgia just referred
dozens of people to the Attorney General for vote fraud in 2020 and the media dutifully failed to report that or remember it when fact-checking Trump. In fact all sorts of people went to jail for vote fraud in 2020, including a former Democrat Congressman in Pennsylvania. People have been charged n Pennsylvania, in Wisconsin, in Georgia, Arizona, and in New Jersey. Given the desperate effort to cover up such activity after the 2020 election and the total unwillingness to investigate fraud this is undoubtedly just the tip of a very large iceberg. There was ample evidence for vote fraud in 2020 but the media sticks to the fake news they promote to attack Trump.

The media also called Trump's assertion that crime has exploded a "lie". It is true ACCORDING TO THE FBI crime dropped in the last year. You know, the same FBI who assured us Trump colluded with the Russians and who said the Hunter Laptop story was "Russian disinformation". But there was no discussion about WHY such statistics show a drop. The fact is in blue states, particularly California, liberal DA's offices stopped reporting crimes to the FBI. They made no bones about it. Nearly one third of all American cities stopped reporting crimes to the FBI.

So once again it's "believe us and not your lying eyes".

There is nothing anyone can point to that would explain a drop in crime. Nothing. Economically people are worse off than they were in 2020. That is always a breeding ground for crime. And law enforcement pulled back in the previous four years. Soros-funded prosecutors stopped prosecuting crimes. Shootings in places like Chicago or St. Louis are way up.

So itis only because liberals stopped reporting crimes that crime "fell". The news people have to know this, or should if they were competent. It's either an out-and-out lie or evidence of gross incompetence and journalistic malfeasance. Either way they have no business making this argument.

So don't tell me about Trump's lies. I see a very, very filthy pot calling the kettle black.

The media just couldn't contain themselves despite the fact it was such rhetoric FROM THEM as well as Joe Biden and the Democrats that incited the murder attempt on Mr. Trump. They just hate Trump and the success of the Convention and Trump's hero status from his surviving and standing strong has rotted what little they have for brains.

So who shot Donald Trump? The media has ear blood on their hands.

At any rate the real liars are the media and Donald Trump is telling truth-to-power. They don't like that. But truth he told and he did so in his inimitable way. I think Donald Trump has secured vicotry with the wonderful convention following on the heels of the attack on him, and now the Democrats are scrambling to get Biden out in a hail-mary pass. They aren't just afraid of losing the Presidency but of losing Congress. If we have a true wave election Trump will be able to undo decades of careful work and planning to "remake America" by the Leftist Democrats. They are terrified.

Don't expect this to be the only attempt on Mr. Trump's life.
