Ah yes because the mainstream media censored Trump so much. I didn't see any coverage of him or his views anywhere! And I certainly didn't see the bullshit he said just simply parroted and repeated in newspaper headlines without any clarification or fact checking at all.

Give me a fucking break.

'Crazy racist' and 'homophobic' narrative certainly hurt Trump as well as him 'Raping 13 year kid' and multiple other women according to MSM.

Compare the source what he really said and what was reported[0]

I'm not even american, but even I noticed how major media companies such as CNN or NBC insisted in dedicating major time slots just to defame and harass Trump.

I mean, in CNN we even had Fareed Zakaria dedicating all his show just to quite blatantly state that Trump was all kinds of awful and incompetent and unfit for president.

Whether Trump was or wasn't a good candidate is immaterial. The truth is that the bulk of the US mass media was gunning for Trump, some were subtle but others were going at it harder than attack ads.
