Why does media not make things crystal clear? Because that doesn't keep people engaged and ad dollars flowing.

Of course the Reich-Wing media like Fox and ONAN and Newsmax etc are the worst offenders. They purposely misdirect low-info types like tRump and low-IQ types like tRump and confirmation-bias types like tRump.
