Is Trump’s Negative Press Justified?

As to item "6", I'm skeptical that occurred.

So what if CNN didn't report that?

Old Schitzenpants isn't just something he pulled out of his ass, now, is it?

LOL!

Tiny, some posts are so stupid and asinine that you should not even try to reason with the person making it.

Trump continues to lie about the 2020 election. There was no MASSIVE fraud.


Trump has horrid poll numbers with disapproval as high as 54%. No surprise the press follows those numbers, and has plenty of negative things to report about Trump.


Hard to believe you can't understand that.

... Yer sayin' that Winning ALL the swing states - ALL of them
- is NOT a landslide?? ... The Negative Press surely didn't
expect THAT to happen...

And why do you say "No MASSIVE Fraud" - when the Negative
Press doesn't believe their was ANY fraud in 2020. ..

Horrid poll numbers? ... Who? ... President Trump??
Rasmussen has Trump at 51% approval... And the country
on the right track... ... Though, the Negative
Press probably don't rate Trump that high.

... So, THAT is why the negative press is NOT justified.

You don't understand the meaning of the word "landslide".

Trump has many poor results in this administration. That could be the reason he receives negative articles by the press. Just like sports, a loser gets the blame.

Trump has a horrible personality. That could be a reason he gets negative press.

Trump still claims the 2020 election was rigged, but never presented evidence. That could be a reason he gets negative press.

Yes...the negative press is justified.

Finally. You said something I agree with. I feel this way about most of the right-wing talking points you righties regurgitate.

I think someone should start a poll on which Liberal/Socialist/Progressive/Democrat contributor on this Forum exhibits the greatest manifestation of TDS.

I'd love to tell you the image that comes to mind when I read the MAGA posts...but then you'd all want to hit the report button because feelings got hurt.

When you read comical shit like this news, how is that the media's fault for reporting it? I am sure that kid with his extensive real-world experience in terrorism prevention certainly knows what he is doing! In Trump's defense though, Dakota Noem probably did the hiring.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/22-old-le...021028606.html

A division within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) tasked with preventing terrorism is reportedly being led by a 22-year-old recent college graduate.

Thomas Fugate, who graduated magna cum laude with a degree in politics and law from the University of Texas at San Antonio a year ago, is currently spearheading the Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships at the DHS, ProPublica reported Tuesday.

The center, also known as CP3, is mainly concerned with terrorism prevention and supports nationwide efforts to combat targeted attacks like hate-fueled violence.

Should the media be blamed for reporting this too? Could that number be because of Trump's chaotic tariff plan that perhaps makes many private employers skittish about hiring? Nah, that can't be it. That's just the media picking on Trump because they don't care about reporting the actual news. LOL

The pace of hiring in May reached its lowest level since March 2023.

When the winner of a race does not get 50% of the popular vote it is hard to categorize the victory as a "landslide". Trump was favored going into the 2024 election and won it by a margin few expected. Congratulations to him. But it was not a landslide.

There was no "massive" fraud in the 2020 election. There is fraud in EVERY election. But not one claim of fraud claimed by Trump or his supporters was proven. In fact, to the best of my knowledge, every claim of fraud was totally debunked.

Rasmussen is a right-leaning polling company so it is unfair to point to their poll and go with it. Try looking at ALL the polls, for what they are worth.

And as far as Trump's approval rating on important issues, he is under water on every issue except immigration. Again, take polls with a huge grain of salt. It won't be until November 2026 that we really know what voters think of trump.

If that’s what you believe, then why read any news reports at all Salty?

You believe the lies.

No sense in debating. You’d do well to read some of the well reasoned posts in this this thread and look beyond the MAGA media to balance your information.

Relying on Rasmussen (always 3-5 points right leaning) and yer political insiders has left you with a much obscured view of the world and your lord god.

Landslide? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahah. Who told you that?

It’s not negative if it’s the truth. And Trump is truly saying and doing the very things reported by the “negative press/fake news/enemy of the people.”

If you can’t see that, you’re not looking.

I agree. Debate is really a moot point.
Donald J Trump is The President of The United States. He will be for the next 3 1/2 years.

The press coverage of the public breakup of Musk and Trump should be interesting.


Trump is already working Truth Social to divert attention.


At least Musk stood up to Trump, unlike the Republicans.

... You're wrong, yet again.

It's President Trump - who stood up to Musk - and said
"The car tax credits are gone - quit yer bitchin'!"

See? ... You and the Negative Press surely believed
that Musk - not Trump - was running the country.

... And NOW you see the Truth.

Trump is doing a horrid job of running the country.
