The amazing media reversal mirror

If Trump succeeds the media always casts the story as though he lost.

If Trump fights for America the media always portrays it as Trump attacking America.

For example let's look at the "Trade War" insanity the mainstream media is currently pitching.

Since WWII the US has allowed our "friends" and our trading partners, mainly China, to put higher tariffs on US products than the US puts on products those countries send to us.

While that may have made sense decades ago the huge transfer of good manufacturing jobs out of the US shows that it is not good now for America.

But when Trump decided to do something about it the media lambasted him for starting a trade war.

Never mind that the average Chinese tariff is 4+ times higher than the average American tariff it was Trump who was the villain to the media not the Chinese.

Hence the media explained to us stupid folk that it was Trump who was starting a trade war and that he was the villain.

But then the EU caved and agreed to work to zero tariffs and to reduce the high tariffs they have on American products and to buy more American stuff.

To sane people that showed that Trump's tactic had worked; there would be no trade war but the EU would lower its tariffs.

But to the media this was an EU victory and the EU should get all the credit.

Given that without Trump's tough talk on trade and his tariffs, which the media said were all his fault, the EU wouldn't have changed anything sane honest people will credit Trump.

But the amazing mirror media instead decided to bash Trump for actually helping America.
