The ink was barely dry on the verdict when PBS charged headfirst into interpreting the results for the good ol’ American people. Ex-President Donald Trump had been found guilty on 34 felony charges for monkeying with his business records. By the next day, the PBS chieftains trotted out a group of GOP voters they had on standby. The message? Six of their nine two-time Trump voters were now apparently lukewarm about a Trump 2024 vote, post-conviction.

Amna Nawaz, PBS anchor, had a heart-to-heart session with Sarah Longwell, the chief at “Republicans Against Trump,” and Laura Barron-Lopez, a reporter who never met a liberal cause she didn’t love.

Barron-Lopez informed Nawaz that the focus group was mostly those who had voted for Trump twice, in 2016 and 2020. The verdict, however, had some of them doubting their loyalty. Republican strategist Sarah Longwell ran the show, and she reported that six out of the nine voters felt that Trump’s felonies were hard to swallow. Five of the nine said these same felonies made them less inclined to back Trump in future elections. Why, even Michele, a 52-year-old Florida Republican, thought Trump unfit for office.

Seemingly, only Mark from Georgia didn’t play into their narrative, pointing out the hypocrisy of the trial and saying it would make him more likely to vote Trump again.

PBS, predictably, turned the tables and painted all questions and criticism as attacks on the judicial system. They conveniently failed to mention that Judge Merchan, the man who held Trump’s fate in his hands, had made donations to the Biden campaign and his daughter was firmly camped with the Democrats.

Barron-Lopez alighted on her favorite hare-brained idea, chatting about an increase in online violent rhetoric in channels frequented by right-wing audiences. Oddly enough, they didn’t seem too concerned when Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was targeted by homicidal threats. But boy, did they love pointing out the unpleasant murmurs directed at Judge Merchan and his family.

In conclusion, what a spectacle PBS put on for us. The liberal media machine was in full swing, spinning out tales of Republican disenchantment and division. The way they see it, Trump’s conviction was just the domino they needed for the entire conservative structure to topple over. But let’s take a pause and remember that this narrative is one hand-selected by PBS, a network more liberal than a San Francisco bookstore. We’d be wise not to swallow it hook, line, and sinker.
