[TheRealThing]

During this same week during December of 2010 Barak Obama's approval rating stood at 47 percent. Trump's for the same week is 48%.

The Obama administration was awash in scandals, which of course were all based in fact but that the media pooh-poohed away with 100% reliability.

Unlike the Obama administration, the Trump Administration is awash in scandals too, but instead of these scandals being grounded in fact they are based solely in contempt and gossip. Which of course constitutes a hill of fake news that the media are more than ready to die on.

Obama ran over everybody and everything that wasn't an item on the liberal agenda, and the press treated him like deity for it. Trump has so far delivered on his campaign promises like no other in my lifetime and the press have falsely declared him everything from a racist to crazy, to being of ill health. (Compare that to the press' reaction to the video of Hillary Clinton passing out on her feet as she tried to walk up to her vehicle while on the campaign trail.)Trump has been accused of being a Russian asset to being a self appointed king running roughshod over the Constitution.

The difference? The way both men are being characterized by the media. Obama is a lib who in the left's adoring eyes could do no wrong and he is/was loved for it by the left. They circled the wagons for him in just the same way Dems circled the wagons around Bill Clinton during his impeachment, and ran all kinds of false narratives to deflect from the evidence. Evidence which proved to be the truth BTW. I will say that though the media were complicit back then they were nothing like the media of our day. No comparison.

Trump is a Republican who sees the need for and supports a strong military, is determined to get a handle on all this illegal immigration, and is pushing a conservative agenda and appointing constitution loving federal judges. The left and the media hate him for that and are willing to say anything to remove him from office. The press will only mention things which are either destructive or negative where Trump is concerned. But only mentioned positive things (true or not) for Obama. No more complex than that.
