So why isn't the mainstream media worried about this?  Where is the outrage?  Is it OK to murder a Trump supporter?  Is it OK to cheer about it?

The fatal shooting is being investigated. There will be one or more arrests and a trial. 

I think there is no excuse for killing a person except to save the life of a person. Even if that person sprayed mace, it was NOT reason to kill that person. (I may be missing something.)

I don't think you are missing anything.

So how would you like the question worded?  Liberals cheered at the murder of a Trump supporter.  How and when did that become acceptable. If it is not, state it.  

 

By the way, Trump is leading in the polls

OMG, someone who went to college is quoting Breitbart!!!

YES! This is an appropriate topic. How the politics affects nursing!! I really feel that the OP is a troll. I mean, to spend so much energy on so much strife and hate. On a nursing board. Sheesh.

I wish I could like this comment about 1,000 times. Sheesh, indeed!

Because the once trusted mainstream media is no longer in the business of journalism or reporting the news. They are in the propaganda and entertainment business. CNN is soft Media for the brain-dead.

CNN reported this story.  Was it front page news day after day?  No.  Probably because violent protests and clashes are a way of life in America.

When a 17 year old, crosses state lines to defend patriots and kills people, yeah I would venture to say that would cause more headlines.  That he's a hero and darling of the right and has been bailed out is newsworthy as well.

After giving Trump a lot of accurate coverage during his campaign, and thus becoming the enemy of Trump, clearly CNN  has turned anti-Trump in their coverage.  They know their audience at this point.

Fox News has always been a machine of the Republican Party and they know who their audience is as well. A look at their website today and there's story about "After housing Trump for years now the Dems want unity "..."Rep. Matt Gaetz on the hypocrisy of the left".  The headline lead story is "Ronna McDaniel urges Georgia Republicans to vote in Senate runoffs, not 'lose your faith'.

With 4 million RN's in the U.S., nurses are a huge voting block

That's right Karen, but unlike how many here think we are NOT a mono-party voting block.

Of course not.  Not even homosexuals or African Americans are a mono-party voting block and certainly not Hispanics (who tilted the state to Trump).

Still at the end of the day I would venture the percentage of nurses voting for Biden was a bit higher than the general population.  I just have that feeling since covid.

Many nursing unions and organizations endorsed Biden or Sanders.  

Quote

Most physicians and nurses rated the Trump administration’s handling of the pandemic as poor (70% and 66%, respectively), with nearly two-thirds saying the COVID-19 response will influence their vote “a lot.”

Puerile and deflecting from the real issue that getting good news is hard and rarely accomplished on television.  Cable television is not news but that doesn't mean I could ever, ever support Trump , who more than any other president, was able to bend a cable TV station to be his ***. We were a better country before cable television "news".
