I'm from a different country, so I get exposure to different media sources, but from my position, this sounds very strange. The media has been absolutely complicit in enabling Trump and the far right over the past four years, so while I agree that there is no reason to trust them, it's not because they aren't fair to Trump.

I'm not from the US either but from what I've seen the media and the sites I visit - they were largely bashing his every move indiscriminately.

I mean this was always the game in politics, right media hated on every Obama move, left attacked Bush, etc. But Trump really lowered the level at which the game is played, and the opposition followed right down - so everything became ridiculous, infuriating, simplistic talking points and tribalism.

You must be living in an alternate reality but whether you like Trump or hate him you can't deny the fact that the media was completely against Trump from the very beginning. No doubts about that!
