The corporate media is so desperate to “beat Trump” that their strategy now consists of memes, jokes, and waiting for Obama or Clinton to swoop back into the spotlight.
On MSNBC, one panelist praised California Governor Gavin Newsom’s approach, saying:
“Gavin Newsom has been really effective because he’s turned Trump’s absurdities in terms of his posting in all caps as one example against him. And now they started using AI and, and other ways like that to mock. That definitely is getting under the president’s skin. And he can’t help but respond to it….”
Except it’s not. Trump isn’t losing sleep over memes from Gavin Newsom. Pretending this is some political masterstroke is laughable — and hardly news.
But it didn’t stop there. The same segment turned into daydreaming about the “next level” of Democrat resistance:
“But I guess what, I guess what we’re all waiting for Nicole. And, and, you know, I’m gonna be interested what Tim thinks about this is, what’s the next level? Like when is the comedy gonna be enough? When are we gonna see, for instance, like, I don’t know, President Obama, President Clinton, when are we gonna see them out front really taking this, taking this momentum and really hitting it home?”
Nicole quickly agreed, chiming in:
“Yeah, I, I wonder the same thing. Where does it funnel into in terms of political energy?”
So instead of reporting news, the media spends airtime hyping Newsom’s posts on X, wondering when comedy will be “enough,” and fantasizing about ghost presidents swooping in to save Democrats.
Meanwhile, President Trump continues to dominate the news cycle, work for the American people, and advance the agenda he was elected to carry out — while the media and Democrats admit their best hope is depending on President Obama and President Clinton to save them.
It’s comedy that in 2025 Democrats on what some still call “news” think the “next level” is seeing President Obama and President Clinton out front “hitting it home.”
