The press destroyed itself through dishonesty. Only themselves and Soros to blame.

Donald Trump is the oldest and wealthiest person elected president, the first not to have had a public office or high military command, the first to pay for his own campaign, and the first since Washington to waive his salary. He has defeated the Clintons, the Bushes, the Obamas, and almost all the dishonest, myth-making national press (including David Remnick). The national political press has declined even more precipitously than the political class, and the president-elect was elevated despite the animosity of both, a signal achievement whose significance those who have been vanquished show no signs of grasping.

It’s too bad the MSM phonies and the Never Trumpers have none of the integrity of Cato the Younger who committed suicide to avoid being pardoned by Julius Ceaser.

Rush was right yesterday.
The press has made this personal.
They are going to spend the next four years trying to destroy Trump and his administration.
Trump is going to have to keep up the buttsmack
throughout his entire time in office.

Jeez, we called you all racist, homophobic, sexist, anti-semetic bigots. We insulted your intelligence and your value to society. I can’t believe you didn’t vote for Hillary like we told you to. Why won’t you worthless, trashy, redneck, homophobic deplorables listen to us anymore? I just don’t comprehend it!

Mr. Trump won because the United States has had the 15 worst years of misgovernment by all branches and both parties, and the only period of absolute and relative decline, in its history.

They can't figure out Trump, he doesn't want them to like him (like most Republicans).
He is independent and doesn't owe anyone anything.

The posted excerpts have little to do with the title of the thread.
Are we talking about Obama’s nonexistent legacy, or about how Trump destroyed the press?

The thrust of the article is well conceived, but the author is far, far, too kind to President Obama.

Just wanted to read that again. And again.
