Whoa, whoa whoa. Are you telling me that the Washington Post is attributing some nefarious plot to something that trump wants to do? Wow, didn't see that coming.
The one thing that no one is saying, is that it really doesn't matter that it's Trump in the WH. Any one with an R after their name is going to get the exact same treatment from the MS media. Trump just happens to be slightly less polished than most politicians, a bit more thin-skinned, fights back (which most spineless R's are reluctant to do), and gives a few fewer f*'s about what the WaPo, NYT, CNN, and the rest of the lying media think and say than most office holders.
I'm not a big fan of Trump, but at least he's not letting the media steam-roller him.
