The Media, In a continuing effort to fail the American people every chance it gets, is using The framing of Donald Trump to describe the search of Mar-a-lago, calling it a ‘raid’.
This matters because calling it a raid implies that Trump, is under siege, being treated unfairly etc. The media is basically allowing Trump to the one thing he does well (Well not counting stealing every thing he can steal from his idiot supporters.) Which is to frame the media narrative.
Donald Trump became president for one reason and one reason only. He was good at getting us to talk about things the way he wanted to talk about them Not the way they were actually happening. It is imperative the media not let him get away with this and imperative Democrats correct the record every chance we get.
This was not a raid. It was a lawful search pursuant to a warrant. Don't let Trump and pals frame the messaging.
Democrats need to control the messaging on this like everything. We support the rule of Law. No man no matter how privileged he might be is above the law and if the DOJ finds probable cause of a crime and finds individuals in possession of materials relating to the crime, They should be going to court to get a search warrant no matter who it is.
