63% of likely Republican voters believe that it is not possible for President Trump to do anything the media will approve of.

Even voters not affiliated with either major party by a 50 to 32% margin say it is not possible for the President to ever do anything the media will sign off on.

[[63% of likely Republican voters believe that it is not possible for President Trump to do anything the media will approve of.]]

This past week and weekend proved that he can’t- He came out denouncing ALL racism- but nope- that wasn’t good enough for the despicable left- they demanded that he jump through hoops by denouncing specific groups only- He did that- they screamed about him not being sincere- then he again came out and denounced ALL hate and racism and the left screamed about him reneging on his denouncement of specific groups

Nothing a republican does will EVER please the despicable left- and it’s high time we stopped even trying-

“Only 63 percent?”

The other 37% must be RINOs such as McCain followers.

I didn't know it was the President's job to "make the media happy".

I didn't even know it was in the job description to do things "they" approve of.

Silly me, I thought the President's job was to run the country, and the press' job was to report that to the citizens.

So true.

In the same light, the opposition media will not ever make us happy!

I stand with President Trump! Covfefe

there are a lot of older voters/citizens that believe that nation 3 network newscasts and CNN are down the middle.

These are some of folks that are confused. A neighbor in his late 60’s (although right of center) does not get an accurate picture as he daily reads the seattle times and watches network news

The media does not want to be happy.

Why would we want to make the fake news media happy when they are not doing their job to give us unbiased news (the facts)?

May they stew in their misery.

“Meanwhile, the media becomes more and more unhinged,”

AND the “celebrities” who are just as crazed!

No kidding.

He shouldn’t try.

We shouldn’t be giving them any further publicity.

Breaking News - President Trump has breathed oxygen.

According to the MSM this is a huge scandal, its a high crime that requires immediate impeachment, .....

I don’t know if I’ll ever listen to the MSM anymore. They have been so ridiculous the past 9+ months.

President Trump is living in the MSM’s heads 24/7/365 while he pulls a rope-a-dope on them as they viciously attack him and he takes over all news coverage and deprives all other politicians of oxygen. President Trump knows that if he continues and acting his promises to his base that they will see through all of the MSM lies. When President Trump tweets his accomplishments for his base he purposely inserts tiny irrelevant errors and baits the press to attack him on those errors while broadcasting his victories and message around the world with MSMs own megaphone.

President Trump is a self-made billionaire, celebrity, serial entrepreneur who, on his first run for office, took on the entire world and snatched the presidency right out of the hands of the biggest crooks that ever crawled on the face of the earth.

I listened to NPR for a bit yesterday while in the truck and was astonished to hear them say that the counter protestors were just local religious leaders singing hymns and walking around peacefully.

One person interviewed said that there were perhaps 10 Antifa trouble makers compared to 500+- white supremacists and Nazis.

The media has gone off the deep end and I can't see how they can possibly recover (not that they have the inclination to do so).

The Left is so thoroughly brainwashed that it would take extensive deprogramming to bring them back to reality.

I am 73 and support President Trump. Lady in our neighborhood is 83 and fully supports President Trump and is appalled to what the media is doing. The Trump supporters I know are still with him. President Trump needs to stay the course.

Yet GEBush and the rest of the spineless Republicans who have been there for 40 yrs. still quiver at the thought of disagreeing with the media. And the average American voter gets it as well as Trump. Speak the truth, punch the media right back in the face and move on.

Right now the Republicans are making themselves more despised that the Democrats could ever be and they are doing it to their own base and base voters are what gives and takes away majorities for parties in the mid-terms. The GOP really is the Stupid and Cowardly Party.
