If Trump Went to the Moon, the Media Would Still Blame Russia

By Ethan DC

Imagine this: Donald J. Trump, suited up in a NASA space suit with “Make Space Great Again” embroidered across the back, boards a rocket, flies to the Moon, livestreams the whole journey, launches a nuke (because why not?), and plants a massive American flag right into the Sea of Tranquility. The world watches it live, millions of people see it, and he’s trending on every platform from X (formerly Twitter) to TikTok.

And yet, within an hour, CNN runs a headline:

“Experts Say Moon Footage Could Be AI-Generated – Kremlin Ties Suspected.”

Sounds absurd, right? But in today’s media landscape, it’s not that far-fetched.

This hypothetical isn’t really about Trump launching a nuke into the Moon’s gray dust — it’s about the way our media reacts to him. We live in an era where narrative trumps fact, where optics beat outcomes, and where certain outlets refuse to acknowledge even the most undeniable actions if they come from the “wrong” political figure.

Remember the Abraham Accords? Real peace deals signed in the Middle East — largely ignored. Operation Warp Speed? A vaccine rolled out in record time — met with eye rolls and revisionist history. Trump walks on water and the media says it's because he can’t swim.

The truth is, whether you love him or loathe him, Donald Trump represents a challenge to the traditional gatekeepers of information. His presence scrambles the signal of legacy media, forcing them into a reactive posture where objectivity often takes a back seat to narrative control.

And let’s be real: if Trump did go to the Moon, he'd probably build a gold-plated hotel there. And sure, some of us would raise our eyebrows at the Moon-nuke strategy. But there’s a difference between critique and chronic denial. Media is supposed to investigate, inform, and hold power to account — not reflexively oppose one man so much that they gaslight the obvious and rewrite reality.

This isn’t just about Trump. It’s about trust. When media outlets abandon fairness for ideology, they lose credibility. And when people stop trusting the press, the fabric of democratic discourse tears.

So whether it’s Trump on the Moon or Biden on the beach, the truth deserves an honest look. Because at some point, the American people will stop asking, “What happened?” and start asking, “Why won’t you tell us the truth?”
