  • Media Critique

He also criticizes universities as indoctrination centers for left-wing ideologies, suggesting they are breeding grounds for Democratic leaders and activists 2.

    The legacy media are the tail end of the Democrat media, human centipede. They ingest whatever Democrats tell them and then they excrete the digested product onto the American people.
