Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi recently berated the media during a press conference on Tuesday for not doing enough to sell the American public on going along with the Democrats’ disastrous $3.5 trillion spending bill.
A reporter asked Pelosi, “Do you think you need to do a better job at messaging, and going forward, how do you sell this?”
“Well I think you all could do a better job of selling it, to be very frank with you,” Pelosi responded, saying the media has not done justice to the list of items in the bill, such as Family Medical Leave. “Every time I come here, I go through the list … It is hard to break through when you have such a comprehensive package.”

Why should the media be “selling” this spending bill? It’s not their job to push their propaganda and honestly, it doesn’t matter anyway.
Truth be told, congressmen, especially those Democrat congressmen, do not care about what the people that they are supposed to represent actually want. They follow their own agenda and no longer actually represent the American people.
That’s really what she’s implying though is that if the media sells it well enough to the American people that they will express what they want to their elected officials and that their elected officials will actually do what they want.
This is sadly false. This is the way it SHOULD be, but it’s no longer reality. A perfect example of this is the November election. SOOO many people wanted an audit done to make sure that everything was legit in the election, but very few Senators and House members actually stood up to demand an audit or any sort of investigation into the matter, not even all of the Republican Senators who believed that there was fraud.
