This is just circular reporting. A bunch of outlets start pushing an opinion, so the opinion gets louder. Now the loudness of the opinion is the story.

Hey did you hear that Obama's talking about that shit that every news outlet has been shoving down our throats multiple times per day for the past several months? Obama!

Want Trump to lose? Quit sharing this shit every five minutes and instead find an article about how much organizing voters can shake up an election.
