Every Republican in my lifetime starting with Nixon have had the Media on a mission to destroy them....it doesn't and won't matter who that person is, if they're Republican, they will be viciously attacked, always.

When is the last time a Democratic president wasn't attacked by conservative press?

I used to work at home and keep Fox New on in the background. It was ALL Monica Lewinsky all the time. Oh yeah with contributors like Mark Levin, Newt, heck I can't even remember them all. It certainly wasn't fair and balanced.

All of them were called the ugliest names imaginable, and stories fabricated , just to hurt them.

You are all just as hypocritical as your esteemed leader.
But have you ever seen supporters attacked also? What about people burning buildings, blocking roadways trying to keep people from rallies......... Call for impeachment before the man was even elected to POTUS?

And, of course, Trump's wife was never attacked was she? Crap, they are still attacking her.

Were you not here during the campaign season?

And, again your last sentence attacks a supporter.

I have never heard a presidential candidate or president being called school yard names. I like to tell myself that those that do that are doing it from the elementary school library being led by a liberal teacher, one that will probably be supporting sexual freedom for the kids so that they access them legally!

How many "orange" comments? Only an idiot would come up with that unless they were in elementary school. I am always embarrassed for them since they are not mentally intact enough to realize how stupid they appear.

Well, as we know, everything is the fault of the Russians. Democrats have revived the Cold War when they used the fables about Russia to try to deflect from the sins and crimes of Hillary Clinton.

I think it goes back to nixon and both sides have been hitting the other more nasty each time than before. This open sore is getting bigger and bigger.

Harvard study reveals the level of negative reporting on Trump...CNN 93% negative and Fox was the only network to show unbiased coverage with 52% negative coverage of Trump and 48% positive. It's not debatable the level of negative reporting and bias on Trump. Easily manipulated young liberals are most vulnerable to this manipulative bias.

I had to rep you on this one. Honestly, Obama did much worse than Nixon...Nixon Watergate was basically a media driven impeachment, they will try this against any Republican.

Obama had it so easy. The right, Fox news, alt-right movement, white supremacists, talk radio, etc.. all went so easy on him.

Give me a break. The President is always being criticized and attacked by some group. It is part of the job. Presidents have to learn to live with it and not let it consume them.
