There has been enough discussion on this forum about who starts what when it comes to Trump, his opponents, and the press. I haven't seen many instances where Trump has been rude to the Press when they've been as nice to him as they have been with his predecessor. It seems that those who do not have TDS have been the ones on this forum to point out positives about Trump, which, apparently, the TDS folks have not heard much about in the mainstream notFox media. No doubt you believe every negative thing that has been reported or written about Trump. No doubt you haven't been privy to much notFox press that reports positive things about him. No doubt the wonderfully behaved, fair and balanced, objective press that you allow to inform you just can't find things to say about Trump other than that he is a liar and a pussy grabber. And that he obstructed justice. And that he loves Putin and conspired with him to win the election. Yada, yada, yada and the daily CNN and New York Times breathlessly reporting some new factoid or investigation, or rumor, or accusation that supposedly exposes or is about to prove what a, how did you put it, what a horror Trump is.

I can't fault you for seeing Trump as an irredeemable horror if that's the only information you get.

Right from the beginning of the Mueller investigation, there have been alternative media outlets that consistently and daily got it right. And you're beloved leftist press got it wrong. They kept getting it wrong until the very last crescendo of hope and accusation and phony innuendo bubbles were burst by Mueller's report.

That kind of consistent error, when coming out of the mouth of Trump, would be called lying. When the standard for lying applied by left wing press to Trump's words is applied to the Press, it makes the Press to be a consistent and daily liar.


Since when is it none of the presses business what Trump says to Putin?

See, by press standards for Trump lies, you're lying. Your making a straw man supposition.

Perhaps another of Trump’s sarcastic jokes was how Putin doesn’t have problems with fake news, just how many Russian reporters have died since the start of Putin’s regime?

How many American reporters have died since the start of Trump's regime? See, you're concocting a slick kind of lie that Trump is going to get American reporters killed. Well, if the tons of negative abuse heaped on Trump hasn't gotten him killed, I guess the reporters who dump it shouldn't worry.
