We've all been conditioned by the Leftist press to not challenge them, to be afraid of their judgement, to pick and choose our words for fear of their wrath.
The Left is use to being in control of the narrative and the typical ranch-raised GOP milquetoast candidate is trained from birth to roll over on his back at the first sharp word from the MSM.
Trump is breaking the mold. He is signaling, either by his nature or design, he's not going to allow others to control his speech or his thoughts. He has broken the hold the MSM is use to having, and they are beside themselves. It is as if a very bad dog owner, who is use to whipping his dogs into submission, is suddenly surprised when one of the dogs latches onto the owner's throat.
Excellent point.
We get no bonus points for toeing the line the media has set for us.
Let Trump be Trump.
