If you havent noticed, you havent been paying attention.
Well, I have noticed: the media has finally found their spine and are going after the politically wounded *president* with a zeal that should have been there since day one. I dont see how the state media (Faux News) counters an onslaught being waged by the rest of the media, by Congress, by world leaders and who knows who else.
How does tRump get back to ground zero, let alone winning? He doesnt.

(17,276 posts)Why waste time on this footnote to history? Let the media go after him, by all means. I just don't think I need to pay as close attention to his comings and goings, lies and screw ups now.
We've got him on the run!

(5,257 posts)Based on recent evidence, the media needs to cooperate and invest heavily in GOP campaigns for them to be successful, at least in the electoral college. The media's downright savage treatment of Al Gore in 2000 was a national disgrace. John Kerry received only slightly better. As for 2016, while some media members expressed alarm at Trump, not enough of them did it, and of course it was typically tempered by bothsiderism and the long tradition of attacks on Hillary Clinton.
If they've turned on the current occupant of the White House, that could be very good news for the country.
