Because Trump is Trump, he has earned some of the media’s enmity, but no president has ever faced what he faces daily: a phalanx of deceptive, hyper-critical mouthpieces in media, academia, and Deep State USG circles allied against him—not to mention the powerful Progressive/Hollywood elites. The media was never going to like Trump, but nobody else has gone out of his way to alienate the press like the President has. So why the surprise? What's the old expression, don't pick fights with people who buy ink by the barrel?
nobody else has gone out of his way to alienate the press like the President has. ...we hear from FR's persistent NeverTrumper.
He has not "gone out of his way"—the media have stood directly in his way and have attempted to block his every move.
He has said what he has said about the media not to "alienate the press", but to speak out to the indoctrinated masses that the press has already been not just alienated from the People, but has alienated itself from the Constitution and has made common cause with the enemies of freedom, for decades now, helping and hoping to bring about the collapse of our nation.
"Don't get it twisted."
