RUSH: Same thing is happening today with the economic news. We have a GDP report today that growth was 3.5%, but that’s below what was expected! So the Drive-Bys are reporting that economic activity has slowed down! It’s not nearly what people thought it would be! Trying to create that first impression among the people in their audiences that there’s something wrong with the economy. There’s nothing wrong with 3.5% growth!

It didn’t come in at the predicted 3.8% to 4%. Guess what? The tech stock sector is taking a bath, specifically Google (also known as Alphabet) and Amazon have reported earnings, and every… They’re stunningly disappointing, and it’s causing sell-off. It’s causing a big problem on the NASDAQ, which is where many of the tech stocks report, where they’re listed.

President Donald Trump denounced the media on Friday for trying to pin the recent bomb scare on him and his supporters.

“We have seen an effort by the media in recent hours to use the sinister actions of one individual to score political points against me and the Republican party,” Trump said.

The president commented on the news at his rally in Charlotte, North Carolina after authorities apprehended the Florida man suspected of sending pipe bombs to prominent Democrats.

Trump condemned political violence and called for an end to the politics of personal destruction, especially from the media.

“Political violence must never ever be allowed in America and I’ll do everything in my power to stop it,” he said. “The media has a major role to play, whether they want to or not.”
