This is not unusual. It is the Establishment Media modus operendi. It is how they reward their chosen candidates and punish those they oppose.
This is why and how Watergate was an Establishment Media coup against a sitting president. They hated Nixon and wanted him out. They hate Trump and want him out.
Every tiny little thing, no matter how small, is used against Trump, as it was against Nixon.
But the major crimes of politicians they support... crickets.
This is sedition. Nothing less.
