It's not that the media hasn't learned from 2016. The most troubling thing is the media is openly showing us that money matters more than message and either they think no one will notice or they just don't care.

(16,855 posts)Being a billionaire is equivalent to years in public service in their eyes. Billionaires are used to having people kiss their asses all the time,and that makes them ill suited for the presidency. They just don't seem to grasp the concept of being accountable to other people.
