You think we get to the Apocalypse before Congress cuts the legs out from under him? At some point, blindly backing 45 will cost the GOP grassroots funding. Politicians can put up with a lot, but not getting money isn't on the list.

I think it's abundantly clear they will back him as long as he's pushing their overall agenda of cutting taxes and trying to kill poor people.

You know what I'd really like?
A source for the 5 W's of journalism.
Without bias without a political agenda.
I don't want a "side" just report facts.
Fake news , real news, CNN, FOX, WSJ, NYT, WP, and all the rest.
How about just reporting a factual non glorified unbiased story.
I'm so sick of everyone has to have a position.

Yeah, I know I'm old.

The best source of unbiased analysis is on Twitter, particularly politicians who criticize people they don't like for doing the same thing people they like are doing.

I know you're kidding but I'm talking about real reporting.
I'm just so sick of having to filter everything based off an assumption of bias.

The bias isn't necessarily ideological - hell, most media is owned by corporations that benefits greatly from Conservative policies, whether it's FCC deregulation or abolishing net neutrality...but the bias, particularly with regard to broadcast media, is ratings.

People don't tune in to hear everything is fine.

So CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, WP, and the NYT benefit from conservative policies?
You must get your cable and internet from a different provider than mine.

You mean like their running 5 minutes on Hillary's emails for every one minute on issues-based reporting last campaign cycle?

I guess I'm wondering what you define as a "conservative story"? If it's just "when are they going to run something not biased against the current administration or its policies" then is it worth considering whether the problem is the news or the administration's continued fuck ups? I mean the AHCA had a fucking 17% approval rating from the American public and it was rammed through in a matter of days without a final bill published for public review and without a CBO score. Is the media supposed to just lie?

I mean if you want "conservative stories" people on CNN were not averse to praising Trump for launching a few cruise missiles into Syria to send a message (I saw where out of 47 OP eds run in major national newspapers about the Syria strikes, only 1 was opposed) and Brian Williams talked about how "beautiful" they were as they were being fired off the deck of a ship.

His one address to congress was met with praise from all the major pundits and largely hailed as the day he "became president" or whatever.

The media wants to go wherever public opinion goes and Americans want nothing more than to be told everything is fine so long as they're not being blatantly lied to. This administration is so transparent in their repeated fucks ups that it is impossible to push the "everything is fine" narrative. If Trump ever manages to go one week without hitting himself in the dick repeatedly you'll see the media fall right in line to praise his presidential tone or whatever.

Don't forget Brian Williams chimping himself raw over Syria getting bombed.
