The liberal media loathes reporting on the great economic news in the Age of Trump. They despise reporting anything negative about rotten democrats. The thing they hate the most however is reporting on leftist violence against Trump supporters. That’s why there is barely a blip on the liberal media radar about a leftist kook who tried to run over a bunch of Republicans trying to register voters in Florida. Now if it had been a guy in MAGA trying to kill democrats, that would be “real’ news.
Fox News reports:
Authorities in Florida were searching Saturday night for a driver who they claim drove his van into a Republican Party voter registration tent in a shopping center parking lot, just missing six volunteers working there.
The suspect, described as a white man in his 20s, then got out of his vehicle and recorded video of the smashed tent, and flashed a middle finger to the startled voter-registration volunteers before driving off…
Volunteer Mark Alfieri gave FOX 30 his account of what happened.
“Kind of out of the blue, a man approached us in a van, was waving at us, kind of a friendly demeanor, thought he was coming up to talk to us. Instead he accelerated his vehicle and plowed right into our tent, our tables,” Alfieri told the station.
“After he ran over everything, he backed up, took out a cell phone, kind of recorded the damage, made some obscene gestures at us and then proceeded to leave the complex.”
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office announced they made an arrest:
Conservative commentator Stephan Miller nailed the liberal media with this brutal Twitter thread:
Going out on a limb and suggesting if a MAGA hat wearing yokel drove a van through a Warren or Sanders voter registration tent, it would be the only thing journalists & major news outlets would be talking about right now.

There would be Charlottesville comparisons. Jim Acosta would chain himself to the WH Fence. Tapper would be demanding Kelkyanne Conway personally accept responsibility and Fredo would be quote tweeting people with 12 followers.

There would be 5 NY Times OP-Eds about Trump’s SOTU speech was the motivation. NBC reporters would be scouring 4Chan. Wash Post front page would read TERROR IN JACKSONVILLE. Candidates would be gathering for candlelight vigils.

Jacksonville and #DefeatHate would be top trends on Twitter. Every celebrity with a political following would be making Hitler comparisons. Stelter & Darcy would be blaming some Fox & Friends segment because that’s what Media Matters would be doing. There would be marches.

But of course there’s none of that, and you don’t have to like Trump to notice this. You just have to have a pulse.

Miller ain’t wrong. Let’s take a look at how the liberal media is covering this latest act of leftist violence:
CNN has absolutely no mention of this on their main page and neither does MSNBC. They both have plenty of article about how Trump is a dictator, but nothing on the lefty violence.
NBC also didn’t have anything about the Florida attack on Republicans on their main page, but they did have this import story of perceived violence featured prominently: Transgender youth say they feel under attack in South Dakota
It was also absent on CBS’s main page which just left ABC as the only one of the 3 major networks to cover this story. Even though ABC did dedicate a little space to this story, their focus was on President Trump being a bully by sending out this tweet:
Law Enforcement has been notified. Be careful tough guys who you play with! https://t.co/1Pq0hOrzy2

Yeah, that’s totally the important thing here. Trump sending a mean tweet.
The liberal media has developed a narrative that President Trump’s rhetoric has inspired his supporters to commit acts of hate and violence against minorities. Sure, they don’t have any stories to support this complete load of crap, but all things liberals claim are based on their delusional fantasies and no amount of contrary evidence is going to sway them.
