Former President Donald J. Trump has been out of office for over five months now, and all indications are he’s been thoroughly enjoying himself. Whether strolling around Mar-a-Lago or playing eighteen holes at Trump National, Trump is undoubtedly mixing in business and politics, but for him that’s recreation. The Donald is clearly having a great time. The mainstream media, however, continues with their unholy fixation on the billionaire, as Donald Trump lives rent-free in their craniums. They are at the point where it’s fair to question their mental wellness. They need an intervention.
A few minutes spent surfing the web yesterday showed that not only has the media’s preoccupation with Trump not subsided, it’s as bad as ever. The websites for all three major broadcast news channels – ABC, NBC and CBS – all had at least one Trump headline at the top of their homepages, as did Politico, and most other leftwing sites. Yet not surprisingly, the leftwing cable news channels’ fascination was at a different level.
Of the top twenty-four news stories on CNN.com yesterday, five of them were directly related to Trump. That’s 21% of their overall coverage dedicated to Trump, whereas they only had one article related to President Joe Biden. Consider these headlines:
“A livid Trump was told Kushner decided on federal Covid-19 testing, book says,” a piece which discusses gossip from a second-rate book.
“See who beat Trump in 2024 straw poll,” which details their wishful thinking if Trump decides to run again.
“Pressure mounts on Trump Organization CFO to cooperate against Donald Trump,” explaining what they hope to be true.
“Hear these Trump Supporters’ hopes for Arizona audit,” which expands on their fascination with Trump by directing it at us, his supporters, around the framework of the Arizona election audit.
“Seven defenders of the big lie,” aimed at keeping alive their narrative that the Capitol Riot on January 6th was the greatest threat our democracy has ever seen.more
