I mean there is a coalition of the press forming against the White House, that's new. Seems to have ratcheted up after that CNN reporter was banned from a press briefing or whatever, but the press flipped the script long before Trump and have doubled and tripled down pre and post 2016
And until recently people were starting to call them out for if.
What is difference is that the media (newspapers especially) is meant to be a checks and balance for the govt.
Instead it has become a mouthpiece for the Democrat party. It's no longer doing its job.
With Trump in office, he and his group are calling out biased press for what it is.
The Democrats in the press are drawing lines in the sand and firing shots with ink against the Trump Administration. Instead of being unbiased, they are being biased to an extreme.
This is working out almost exactly what I imagined as a worst case scenario 20+ years ago.
I expect that there is going to be an escalation that most people aren't going to believe is happening soon.
I personally believe we are going to see an attempt on either Trump’s or Pence’s life. (or both)
If that happens, we are going to see something was haven't seen in most of our lifetimes.
