Do reporters really care about empathy?
Instead of spending a minute or two on something truly dangerous to the American people, actual Russian collusion, corruption, kickbacks, and cover-up of the sale of uranium reserves to the Russians, reporters spend hours on an unverified phone call of Trump. They are supposedly worried about his lack of empathy, according to a disputed account by Rep. Frederica Wilson, who allegedly overheard parts of a condolence call the president placed to grieving soldier's widow.
I don't recall one discussion about empathy on the news during Obama's eight years, but here are some true examples of a president's lack of empathy:
On the night of 9/11/12, Americans were under attack in Libya. Instead of Obama and Hillary actually lifting a finger to help them, they concocted a fictitious story about a video causing the attack instead of terrorism, which they knew it was from the start. They even continued this blatantly false story when the bodies came home to Dover AFB and sent Susan Rice out to news programs to perpetuate a lie. They had to lie to protect their political power because Obama had been lying that terrorists were on the run, and a terrorist attack would be inconvenient. Americans dying, and the truth didn't matter; political power did.
Trump has done more in nine months to clean up the Veterans Administration corruption and help veterans than Obama did in eight years. Are we to believe that reporters and Democrats all of a sudden have a great deal of concern about veterans?
I do not recall Obama ever saying a word about people killed by illegal aliens in sanctuary cities – or reporters caring that he didn't have empathy.
When an undercover video came out showing women from Planned Parenthood bragging about crunching and dismembering babies illegally for profit, where was the empathy? Instead of caring about the children, Democrats and reporters defended the abortion body parts-sellers. Democrats went after the people taking the video instead of the people illegally selling the body parts for a profit. Normally, reporters like undercover videos showing criminal activity, but not when it goes against their agenda. How could anyone look at those women at Planned Parenthood and not see how absolutely cold hearted they were?
The Obama administration showed a true lack of empathy for American people and all the people in the world when they allowed a corrupt Russian regime to pay blackmail to get uranium, some of which may have been sold to Iran and North Korea, two countries that pledge to destroy the U.S.
Democrat policies as a whole show a lack of empathy, especially for the poor and minorities, because they gladly make more people dependent on government instead of striving to move them up the economic ladder. The policies always expand power and increase money for the ever more powerful government instead of allowing the people more freedom and money to spend as they like.
A couple other stories that are getting scant coverage while reporters spend hours on an unverified phone call: the success against ISIS in Iraq and Syria and the illegal unmasking hearings with Samantha Power and others.
Reporters really don't care if Trump is empathetic or not. They seek to destroy him and his agenda every day. That is their goal. They voted for Hillary, and facts are unimportant compared to destroying Trump and enacting the Democrat agenda.
Did Bill and Hillary show empathy to Juanita, Monica, Paula, and all the other women Bill sexually abused, or did they seek to destroy them? Those women are as dispensable as the people who died in Benghazi, people killed by illegal aliens, and unborn children who are crushed and crunched. Power and the agenda are all that is important to Democrats.
Reporters should stop pretending that they all of sudden care about empathy toward anyone. They care about power and the agenda. Little else matters.
