The media is not interested in learning. They think they already know the truth and their collective mind is closed.

What the media fails to recognize is that when you start from a position of hating someone you are trying, as a journalist, to cover, your hatred blinds you to that person.

What journalists call facts about Trump are selectively chosen to support their hatred, not to get at the truth.

Goodwin is correct in that a prejudiced press should recuse itself from covering Trump.

They don't care a whit about developing an understand of him.

BTW, if they did develop an understanding of Trump, they would see that ALL of their accusations can be explained by the way he operates (i.e. as a negotiator).

Furthermore, the accusations that Trump is a racist are not based on anything that Trump has done or said. It is because the accusation of racism is the last resort of those who have no rational arguments with what Trump is doing.

And since when is "nationalism" a bad thing? But, actually, the accusation of "nationalism" here isn't what it seems.

No one really thinks that putting America first is a bad thing.

"Nationalism" as a bad thing is associated with--wait for it--Nazi Germany.

As Reagan would say...there they go again.

Nazis used “love of one’s country” to trick people into supporting a crazed sadistic tyrant bent on world domination and genocide.

Please, journalists using this comparison, show us where Trump is doing any of the same. We’ll wait.
