As Trump’s Poll Numbers Rise, Media Begin Censoring Press Conferences

When polls showed that President Donald Trump was receiving unusually high marks for his handling of the Coronavirus pandemic, the first stage of grief the media went through was denial:

The political media have been working extremely hard to craft a narrative that the spread of the coronavirus was essentially the fault of the man they had blamed for all other ills in recent years. How could the people not accept that narrative, particularly considering that most everyone in the media was pushing it?

Things got worse when additional polls showed Trump receiving high ratings at the same time that the media received poor ratings. A brand new Gallup study — “Coronavirus Response: Hospitals Rated Best, News Media Worst” — was particularly bad news. When Americans were asked about nine different institutions and political leaders, they gave majority approval to all but the media. President Trump has a 22-point net approval rating while the media’s net approval rating was negative 11 points. The RealClearPolitics approval average for Trump was its highest during his entire presidency.

Isn’t this what a fascist arm of a Totalitarian system would do? This is why we have always known that western media is an arm of Socialist Elites in the DNC...1st amendment being censured by the very same people protected by it.

This may sound odd, but I enjoy listening to these press conferences almost as much as I enjoy watching his rallies.

The media is clearly not a collection of companies all working in competition against one another.

The media is a leviathan that disguises itself as a marketplace of information. It is, in fact, a centrally directed propaganda machine aimed at destroying this country.

Either Trump, Q whatever start fighting back with offense, or we’re dead meat.

You can’t win just playing defense. If it isn’t apparent enough, the opposition willing to take this to any means necessary. And, they stated so, willing to spend or do WHATEVER it takes to defeat Trump/Capitalism/Freedom

Satan/Communism/Globalism is RUNNING the tables on us.

Sadly, the majority of Americans are acting like sheep and have no clue what is at stake.

The U.S. National News media is getting their orders from the Chinese Communist party. China probably funds a lot of Democrat /Media related institutions and causes...

Your statement copied above is 100% accurate. The media is nothing more than an Anti-American, Anti-Constitutional, Liberal Agenda, Propaganda Machine.
Our Presidents America First policies are a threat to their agenda that they must destroy or their agenda will be destroyed.
They are engaged in a battle to the death. Their singular focus is to DESTROY President Trump and all he stands for. This fact is not understood by far too many people on our side.

Chuckle! Its like the Bloomberg campaign. The media worked hard day and night to destroy President Trump for three years, and all they got was his highest ratings ever at RCP.
Expect suicides from the deranged media personnel in November.

If it was Æthelblack the Unready, the First of His Jugears, the Media would form a two-hundred reporter human centipede, eager to feed.

We need to update the “They Live!” memes from bug-eyed aliens when you put on the glasses, to Chinese puppetmasters.

They finally got Trump. He’s finished. He killed his economic engine in a matter of weeks. Is it too late for him to realize the fraud that is before him???

That’s because all of these folks are very mature professionals who are masters of the art of public speaking

Our great President - he always chooses the best of the best!

Dr. Brix seems nice and proper.

I think she is the type whose face would turn red when hearing an earthy joke.

"I enjoy listening to these press conferences almost as much as I enjoy watching his rallies."

Funny that the Press was gleeful that this epidemic would be the end of Trump's rallies - now he has one every night and they're covering it.

He's a "very stable genius"....
