    Somehow I don’t think reading a Mother Jones article counts as giving her any clicks

      We are talking about her, aren’t we? The media is continuously giving these performative rightwingers free advertising.

        I wouldn’t call educating people about how terrible she is “free advertising”. If you ignore this shit, they’ll keep electing her

            No.

            Reporting “Trump wants to deport millions of people” is considered a bad story by many but actually viewed as a good thing by plenty of Americans, which is why the “negative” press coverage was to Trump’s benefit as free media for his message.

            You won’t find anyone viewing Noem euthanizing puppies and goats as a positive.
