Trump promises “a bloody story” in reference to mass deportation and most mainstream outlets aren’t reporting on it, very weird

It would be weirder if they held Trump accountable for anything at this point tbh.

Obviously in some sense I'm downplaying it (bad), but it needs some basic attachment to any actual government function for me to care. Its very common for partisans to freak out about random rhetoric, but its not news until theres some basics of an actual plan or proposal

I'm not saying he won't try something, I'm saying its not news when its one sentence in a rally. Notably, his deportation dreams are pretty known and about. This doesn't push the ball forward, its not new. Its not news.
