''RealClearInvestigations'' revealed that the organization ran an elaborate media-influence operation intent on driving and shaping daily coverage of the Trump-Russia collusion narrative, including the pushing of stories regarding Trump in the national main stream media, intending to tie the president or his associates to the [[Kremlin]] and [[Vladimir Putin]].  TDIP then provided the same "research" to the [[FBI]] and congressional investigators and then informs news reporters that "authorities" are investigating those items.  Thus, mirroring a strategy federal authorities used to secure [[FISA]] warrants that were then used to spy on the Trump presidential campaign, in which, FISA applications would cite published news reports that were leaked to the news media to gain credibility.<ref name=20190320PSPerry />

In August 2020 it was reported that Facebook was planning for the possibility that [[President]] Trump or his campaign could try to challenge mail in ballot election results.  ''[[The New York Times]]'' reported that staffers were already putting together contingency plans in the event Trump tries to use Facebook to dispute the vote by declaring the [[U.S. Postal Service]] lost mail-in ballots or that other groups interfered with the vote.  Facebook officials, including CEO [[Mark Zuckerberg]], were holding daily meetings to discuss how to minimize the platform from being used to cast doubts on the results.

''The Times'' noted that one plan would include a “kill switch” to shut down political ads after Election Day. The company officials believe the ads, which Facebook does not check for truthfulness, could be used to disseminate misinformation.

A huge majority (82%) of Biden voters were unaware of at least one of these key items, with five percent saying they were unaware of all eight of the issues we tested.
    
This lack of information proved crucial: One of every six Biden voters surveyed (17%) said they would have abandoned the Democratic candidate had they known the facts about one or more of these news stories. A shift of this magnitude would have changed the outcome in all six of the swing states won by Joe Biden, and Donald Trump would have comfortably won a second term as president.

*'''Hiding Trump's Successes:''' The liberal media also prevented many Biden voters from learning about record-breaking positive [[economic]] news in the months leading up to the election. The five pre-election jobs reports from June 5, 2020, to October 2 showed a record 11,161,000 jobs were created in the extraordinary snapback from the [[CCP pandemic|pandemic]] recession. Yet a large number of Biden voters (39.4%) said they didn't know about this achievement. If they had, 5.4% said they would have changed their vote; this would have swung Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to Trump, who would have won with 295 electoral votes.

:Energy independence was another Trump success. The President took action to start long-stalled pipeline projects and expand drilling offshore and in the Arctic, and it paid off with America becoming a net exporter of oil for the first time in September 2019. More than half (50.5%) of Biden voters said they did not know about this important accomplishment, either. If the information was known by all, 5.8% of Biden’s voters say they would have changed how they voted. This would have changed the outcome in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, putting Trump in front with 295 electoral college votes.
