It sadly doesn’t surprise me if true. The media has an objective, and that objective is to destroy Donald Trump. They would do it to any Republican. Cruz would have fared no better if not worse. However, there is no candidate they want to destroy more than Donald Trump. Just read the Twitter of the media members covering Trump. It’s obvious that most of them don’t like him. They can’t hide their bias. CNN is in full on destroy mode right now with every gun aimed at him. There are many people who are going to believe what the media is selling. Now granted, the people who believe it the most are #NeverTrump people and liberals, but independents who swing with the wind on this type of stuff will too. It’s very hard to run as a Republican in this country because you aren’t just running against your opponent, you are running against the media and entertainment industry as well.
Trump is different because he doesn’t care what the media thinks.
And he’s undeterred by push polls showing he’ll lose.
When he ran, no one thought he could win the GOP nomination.
At 35% he’s not where he wants to be but he can make up the deficit while Hillary is not going to rise about the level she is now.
