Biden will hide from the press for the next 4 years (or until Kamala takes over), and we just have to accept that.

That's okay if the DEMS mistreat kids, just not okay if Trump does so in the "cages" Obama built! Talk abought the height of HYPOCRISY!!. So that we treat these "kids" (mostly older teenagers!), Biden plans to spend $86,000,000 of taxpayer dollars for HOTEL ROOMS to house the influx of ILLEGAL ALIENS!!!! That's EIGHTY-SIX MILLION DOLLARS!1 These are INVADERS!! How about we help OUR HOMELESS and VETERANS instead!!!

This is freaking INSANE!! But our border is closed! WINK! WINK!

Why are the Trump supporters not shouting about how the Press is biased?


Here's why:
Because first and foremost, the current admin takes it in stride, and they either answer the question, or they duck it like every politician before Trump. Trump, being the textbook narcissist he is, always made their questions about him, and he played the victim card every time. If he had just answered the questions (truthfully, or with a polite dodge) he would have gotten the same treatment. Not saying that is right or wrong, I'm just saying he made his own chaos, because he knew how to manipulate the press and his base, and he did it well.

I've seen all of the press hammering him more and more on these two issues.

The difference is not the press. The difference is the response.
That's not bias, nor are they hammering Biden. If Trump were president, they'd be crucifying him. Accordingly, your OP is a EPIC FAIL.

Report: Trump Happily Employing Undocumented Workers

undocumented immigrants have also served another, lesser known but nevertheless vital function in the president’s life: providing cheap labor at his businesses. And not just, like, in years past, or in the first few months of his presidency...

Even the claim of "softball questions". It's not the question, it's the bombastic response that generates the chaos that Trump craved and needed.
Your selective memory is in overdrive. The media was bashing, hammering at, Trump from the time he announced he was running for office...and they never stopped, in fact they got far worse.

Both Presidents got called out by the press. The difference is not the press. The difference is how they responded. If Biden threw a hissy-fit every time someone disagreed with him, it would get more negative press coverage.

The difference is that Trump makes everything about Trump. Biden and all other Presidents in my lifetime (50+ years) are focused on the issues. Some have good solutions, some have bad ones. That is subjective. What is not so subjective is the fact that Trump played the victim card and created chaos.
Complete and utter bulls**t and you know it. Trump didn't have to say anything and the press was up his a**!

I'm proud they are reporting it negatively. No one is complaining. But the royal you has spent I don't know how many years saying the media is unfair to republicans.
You mean more like a soft scolding, if that. Show me articles were the press is actually hammering Biden even anywhere close to what they did Trump. Have any of them compared him to Hitler yet? Didn't think so.

Biden can sympathize with those "kids in cages". Jill probably locks him up in one down in that "basement" he's always disappearing to. Wouldn't be surprised if they fitted one for him in Camp David.
