Trump is going to continue to be attacked hard from the right as well.

Also, it won't stop if he wins the presidency. Both of these groups are going to go after him hammer and tongs from from the conventions onwards. It isn't going to stop.

If by "liberal onslaught" you mean ad hominen attacks that no one cares about? Dragging up stuff TRump said or did 30 years ago, whining about his tax returns, his love life, his business practices (IE nothing relevant to being President) said by the same dopey idiots who had nothing to say about Obummers fitness to be PResident? Liberal onslaught? more like childish gossip. No thanks, Ill pass

Donald Trump is oblivious to many things. If he really has no clue about the kind of digging the media will do on him, he's dumber than I thought.

Once again, WHO cares? The liberal media is a bunch of DNC whores who care nothing about bieng objective, nope they gleefully spread rumors, half truths and fear mongering.

I agree with your point about the liberal media being a bunch of DNC whores, the the hard truth of the matter is that half truths and rumors are often what influence elections. (And in Trump's case, I am not sure that all of these stories are merely "rumors." But there have been cases in the past where liberals have just made up stores--such as when liberals alleged that Romney was a "tax felon"--and it had an impact on the election.)

He has no clue. He's always been able, in business, to shrug even the biggest claims off and still get by. Different game now that he's running for Prez. He, the king of the birthers, knows that.

As far as the MSM going after him now, it does seem unfair...they should have been doing this 'vetting' from the day Trump announced his run...

The mainstream media purposely did not do any of this "vetting" until Trump got the GOP nomination, because they knew that he would be the easiest candidate for Hillary to beat. It amazes me that so many GOP primary voters didn't realize this. It reflects a total ignorance when it comes to understanding exactly how the liberal media works.

These people seem to be equally ignorant when they somehow think that Hillary will be indicted before the election. Now don't get me wrong, because I think that she is guilty as sin. Yet because a Democratic Department of Justice is conducting this investigation, I expect Clinton to get little more than a slap on the wrist. (Does anybody honestly believe that the Democrats are going to sabotage their own election chances by indicting Hillary before November?)

Excuse me but, someone who's entire resume for running for President is "I'm the best businessman" -- well, his business practices are fair game. It's totally relevant.

All American media is owned by six corporations. Every set of facts for any given story is written with a slant to pander to a specific demographic in order to retain readership/viewership and maintain ad revenues. If you believe anything you hear on any of them from MSNBC to FOX, from the NYT to the Daily News, you're being played for a sucker, successfully.

In short "Liberal Media" is a figment of your imagination. Pure mass hallucination.

It's hard to believe that people STILL don't understand what is going on in this election. This election boils down to one issue only, on both sides, and that is immigration. The two candidates with the most well known dirt in their past are at the top of the tickets. Nothing new will come out about Trump because if it was known Cruz would have used it. Hillary Clinton has lied over and over again, done criminal things as an agent of the government (worse than greasing a few palms for real estate deals in NYC and Jersey), and people will still vote for her on that single issue. Ditto for Trump voters. They neuter each other because Clinton can't go all out against him for his women or dirty dealings since he will hit back with all of her dirty dealings and smearing of Bill's women.

If you ask me, Bernie would be the better candidate against Trump, but it doesn't look like the DNC wants that.
