GOOD FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP. Having been a member of the press myself, I always felt that the field was another arm of our checks and balances system. With the press around, none of the branches of government could do wrong individually or collectively for long before being exposed.
Well, I have lost all respect for the press which in most part doesn't care about our collective good anymore but is just hungry for clicks and career advancement. One advantage Iran has over the US is that it won't allow any dissent to seep through. It looks unified because the regime will kill any one who dares to condemn it or the war with the US. How fast the American press forgot about how the regime slaughtered 40,000 of its own people in one weekend. Where is the coverage on that? Where is the coverage of the arrests, the tortures the executions, the grieving families? We only find out some news from social media platforms, nothing in the traditional news outlets. All I see in the American press is how we are so weak, how we can't stand high oil prices, how we used all of our military equipment already, how, how how. In a time of war the role of the press is to support the country at least a little not support the enemy by touting its strengths. Iran's regime is week; it had been before the war. The press should cheer the President to finish off a brutal regime that has done nothing but keep its people down and be a thorn in the side of the US and Israel. Al Jazeera is more sympathetic than the Times. Ridiculous!
