It’s a good rule of thumb that when a media outlet says ‘some people’ or ‘some voters’ what they really mean is a handful of people they went looking for and are passing off as the majority opinion.

Like when they’re trying to gin up an outrage mob on a topic, it always turns out the ‘some people’ are really just a few cranks with an Internet connection.

This is why no one takes the media seriously anymore.

But the media decided that once they hit rock-bottom, they were pulling out the jackhammers baby:

CBS News reports (emphasis added):

President-elect Donald Trump in his first term as president sent out two stimulus checks to millions of Americans during the pandemic, part of the federal government’s goal of keeping consumers financially afloat during the crisis. Now, some social media posts are claiming that Trump, once he takes office next year, may issue another check — a likelihood that experts say is extremely slim. 

Posts on TikTok are suggesting Trump might issue another round of checks, while on X, some users are questioning if they’re in line for a payment. 

When the COVID-19 health emergency shuttered the economy in 2020, millions of Americans lost their jobs, sending the jobless rate to almost 15% and causing financial hardship for many. As a result, Trump signed two bills that sent stimulus checks to eligible households, while President Biden authorized a third.

What absolute garbage.

They admit in the article that the only reason Trump sent out stimulus checks was the pandemic. That’s over.

And TikTok? Yeah, there’s a reliable source of information.

You do not despise the media enough.

Not a single person.

BUT TIKTOK USERS!

A fair point. We thought things were great.

Yes we are.

Trump isn’t going to do this. Not a chance.

That’s all this is, clickbait.

Salena knows. She’s talked to more voters than any journalist.
