Trump's playing the media again,

Away from his attacks and comments on the Military, and away from his Covid 19 disaster, and the failing economy, using racism to redirect attention, and the media just keep hurting this country by showing repeatedly his propaganda over and over again. They should stop it. They let him over and over again change the news cycle to benefit him. Showing him repeat lies isn't newsworthy even from a president when he's doing it to hurt us.

But they are also belittling him.

Trump exposed himself for all to see in the debate. No turning back from that.

I have believe I have seen a change from polite disagreement with Trump and his policies to more aggressive coverage and verbiage. It seems that they are no longer willing to give his motives the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps news organizations realize that they are fighting for their own existence too.
