Trump on X Taps Into a Voting Bloc That Legacy Media Doesn't Even Know Exists

RedState

"The legacy media is so focused on rebranding Kamala Harris and running interference for Tim Walz that they cannot even recognize the brilliance of this pivot. X is the one platform that isn't working overtime to either ignore, misrepresent, or drown out Trump's campaign and message. . ."


"As my colleague Bonchie reported, Axios reporter Sara Fischer appeared on CNN to complain about former President and GOP nominee Donald Trump having an unfettered microphone with Elon Musk on X. 

"The Monday night conversation hails Trump's return to the X (formerly Twitter) platform where he was unceremoniously booted almost four years before, and it has the entire legacy media complex shook.

"As my colleague streiff also reported, a Washington Post reporter asked the Biden Press Secretary whether this interview could be stopped, because "misinformation," or something...

"Bizarre to binary thinkers like Farah Griffin and her ilk. Once again, the voting bloc Trump is aiming for with this X interview wouldn't bother to tune into the screech fest where Farah Griffin wastes her days. 

"And how is she so sure that it gains nothing with undecided and swing voters? The people who tend to make up this demo do not respond to debates, and the media noise gives them a headache. But a conversation where Trump gets to lay out policy, discuss how the assassination attempt affected him, and define his opponent? That is something they can be drawn into. 

"So, who knows how many hearts and minds are being changed by hearing a non-adversarial and conversational Trump?" . . .
