stop stirring up fecal matter and just do your job. Nobody cares about what such and such did to you.. poor me.. call the whambulance. What does it matter what Obama did? You are president, so run the country. I say this as someone who voted for him but have always been critical of this side of him and many of his supporters.. their emotional, rather neurotic unhinged sort of insecurity they have about accepting criticism.
As a conservative you should pride yourself in being able to take criticism. If you can't, you're not really conservative.
He no longer has Hillary to pin everything on, so now it's Obama and "the media". After the Obama thing has run its course, he'll keep on the media for investigating him, because every anti-democratic leader wants the public to acknowledge his words alone as the truth.
The funniest part of all of the Trump meltdowns is how they keep trying to stop the news coming out but the news comes out immediately. Sean Spicer demanding everyone provide their phones to try to find the leaker and then THAT coming out right after? Hysterical. Just a bunch of clowns which is expected with Trump as their leader. When Republicans are working this hard to flounder, best to just watch for a while before tossing them an anchor.
The problem with leaks is when you plug up one, two more take it's place like a hydra.
Many people are GLAD he is taking on the very biased press.
The press is biased. It always has been from before the foundation of the republic.
The bias is toward corporate interests. Large corporations protect their own interests and the media is mostly large corporations.
This is why we used to have regulations on the media, to keep one news company from dominating any single news market. Mr. Reagan changed that so the media can make even more money in an uninhibited manner.
Another thing that has changed over the years is entertainment masquerading as news. Most 'news' shows, like Hannity and Bill O'Reilly are not news at all. The company will tell you that is classified as entertainment. Therefore, they feel under no obligation to maintain journalistic standards. Anything, including fabricated stories and rumor are fair game on shows like that.
The business model is successful, so other companies (like CNN for example) have followed suit. 'News' has become a team sport, one develops a loyal following who root for their type of fake news over another type of fake news. When I was young people used to argue about Fords and Chevys and deride the other vehemently. Now we see the same nonsense with broadcast networks.
These 'news' shows are to journalism what professional wrestling is to sport. Fake, fake, fake.
Breitbart is one of the worst but they have plenty of company. The National Enquirer is another example. This is not journalism.
Of course it is largely fake sensationalism. Much the same as 'reality' TV. They do it because the general public loves it and laps it up like a dog to vomit.

"Breitbart is one of the worst"
No worse then Huff Post, Media Matters, etc.
"but they have plenty of company."
The BIG problem is the so-called Main stream media, ABC, CBS, NBS, CNN. the LA Times, the Wash Post, LA Time etc., has become no better then blogs, etc.
WOW, you go to any lengths to lie and the funny thing is everything you have stated can be proven a lie, and has.Typical trump supporter,no different then Trump lie and lie and then when that is done............lie some more.
He even quoted you the page numbers....Go prove it to yourself.
Behind closed doors, Trump has been freaking out all weekend about everything
Besides this is a Washington Post article.....it is full of leaks....the very thing that President Trump is having to constantly deal with. MSM has no shame, they'll use anybody and repeat anything obviously.
They even supposedly quoted his golf partner.

These are corporations.
In American business today the buzz is all about "shareholder value". You and I as consumers do not matter, the employees certainly do not matter. What matters is a satisfactory return on investment for the owners.
They peddle garbage because we accept it and it is very profitable. We hang on every word.
I repeat: "Breitbart is one of the worst but they have plenty of company"
