Report about the Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post —

26 Articles in the week following Smith's indictment of Trump for his attempted coup
100 Articles — nearly 4 times as many — that mentioned Clinton’s server in the week after then-FBI Director James Comey’s notorious October 28, 2016, letter on new developments in that probe--

The US media has learned nothing and is doing a disservice to American voters.

He's got so much going on that half the paper would be about him if they kept covering everything between the classified documents, election interference, hush money, Georgia, tax fraud, Carroll defamation...

Guys, I'm starting to think Trump isn't meant to run a country.

I wonder what it'll take for for us to kick him to the curb by hand instead of waiting for the justic system to....not do justice against those who deserve it.

It's almost like it's by design to wear people down and have them stop believing everything they hear because "that all can't be happening"...
