Both papers are nothing but mouth pieces for the DNC/hate Trump press!
They are biased and very partisan and should be treated as such!

All media is partisan. It always has been around the world and it is enshrined in the Constitution. If you hate biased media, you may never quote the Federalist Papers. That was biased media.

Perhaps he's gone in with a bunch of gold leaf, big-box hardware store marble tiles, and faux Louis XIV furniture and made it more to his liking.

He most surely did, you just refuse to see it because it's uncomfortable fir a Trumpist to admit what they actually want.

Aren't those pics cringe-worthy? Makes me wonder, is Barron Trump's middle name 'Von'?

The Post and the Times are just biased propaganda rags for the Democrat party. I'm all for the first amendment but I also don't think Trump should be forced to engage or support the Democrat version of Pravda or Xinhua.

Meanwhile, the article #45 was complaining about was published in the Times on Saturday. It was a report about the United States's efforts to penetrate Russia's power grid. The Times, citing current and former government officials, noted that the actions are a warning to Moscow that the Trump administration is using new authorities to unleash cyber tools in an aggressive manner.

Unlike Trump, national security officials have no problem with the article. I need to wonder what Trump's problem with the article, which he implies is "fake," except that it's true and verified. It was also reported that military officials specifically didn't let Trump know they were doing this out of fear that Trump would stop them -- because we can't send a warning to Trump's foreign overlords, can we?

While #45 called the Times' article "treason," which it isn't, since it isn't giving aid and comfort to an enemy. However, Trump is acting treasonous -- doing nothing to protect America's elections from a hostile foreign power.

“people would demand I stay longer”

Suggesting you won’t leave at the end of your term, calling the media treasonous, circumventing Congress, creating false emergencies, using DOJ to attack political enemies.

I can't wait till the treasonous fat bastard is only a bad memory.

I wonder how many non-very partisan political junkies are paying attention to things like this anymore. I know I have put Trump and everything dealing with him on ignore. I don't even watch any of the cable news networks anymore, all three. They have become way too partisan for my blood.

Let the ultra partisans, the pro and anti Trumpers continue their feud while I watch something important, like the Braves game. After a slow start, the Braves have moved into first place.

The thing is though none of this is in a vacuum we can ignore.

Seriously, you have to really stretch the spin to get "people would demand" to mean "I will stay". But listing the nonsense you think Trump does doesn't help you in that spin stretching. It only makes you look more foolish.

Left of center shows that they do not present the news fairly and honestly. And, it's hardly news that print media is going downhill fast and that Americans don't trust the media to report the news fairly and honestly and without a bias.

With Trump I have supported somethings and opposed somethings. Like I have done with every other president in my lifetime. I'm not a political party animal and am in neither the pro or anti Trump crowds. So ignoring everything Trump isn't that hard. I got tired of it all a long time ago.

But you're correct, all of this isn't happening in a vacuum. If it was I wouldn't be posting on this thread.

Well, he's tearing our democracy apart. So if one has any interest in that sort of thing, one should really pay attention.

I've never watched it. History, Bio's, sci-fi, documentaries of all types, westerns and the like are more down my line.

Is it Trump or is it a combination of the two major parties which have become so ultra high partisan that neither even gives the good of the country a thought? We've reached a point where both major parties along with their ideology are intolerant other the other. I don't care for Trump, I didn't vote for him. But neither did I vote for Hillary. I voted against both and would do so again today.

I think my signature says it all. It's come to a point where everything Trump is purely partisan. How partisan, look at Trump's favorable/unfavorable's. Question 44A. Democrats 8% favorable, 90% unfavorable. Republicans, 89% favorable, 11% unfavorable. That tells me whatever one thinks about Trump is determined by whether they are a Democrat or a Republican. Now independents don't care much for Trump, but they're not as partisan as either major party is either. Independents give Trump 42% favorable, 47% unfavorable. That makes me say, Hmm.

Lots of other good information in that poll if you care to look at it. Don't worry, I would never vote for Trump. But that doesn't mean I'll be voting Democratic in 2020 either. That depends on whom the democrats nominate. To me candidates matter. I haven't the faintest idea where the two major parties dug up their 2016 nominees. America as a whole didn't want either. Hillary on election had a 38% favorable/58% unfavorable vs Trump's 36% favorable/60% unfavorable. In fact 25% of all Americans disliked and didn't want neither one to become the next president which included 54% of all independents. Only the avid supporters of each like either Trump or Clinton. Not America as a whole.

One in Four Americans Dislike Both Presidential Candidates

Bottom line, we have who we have as president due to the choices, actions and decisions made by both major parties in 2016. I blame Trump on both.
