Mainstream media play down Trump foreign policy successes

Mainstream media fake news will certainly continue unabated until Election Day

Trump Derangement Syndrome remains the only explanation for the failure of the mainstream media to laud President Trump for his two amazing diplomatic and historic breakthroughs over the past two weeks.


  • Serbian President Vucic and Kosovo Prime Minister Hoti signed economic normalization agreements at the White House on 4 September—whilst President Trump also announced the normalization of ties and mutual recognition between Israel and Kosovo—a majority Muslim country—and Serbia’s commitment to move its Embassy to Jerusalem.

Ambassador Ric GrenelI summed up President Trump’s role:

“I think everybody knows that we’ve been stuck politically in this issue for decades, and many times fighting about symbolic things. And what President Trump did from the very beginning is say: Let’s flip it. Let’s figure out how to do economics first. You can’t pay your rent and you can’t buy food with symbolism, but you can when you have a job. And from the very beginning, what President Trump said is: Let’s give them a little taste of the Trump economy. Let’s show them how to develop economics, how to take industries and grow them. And let’s see if the concentration on economics and job creation can unstick the political stuff. That remains to be seen".  

Serbia’s President Vucic thanked President Trump for doing a “great job”—adding:

“When I say “great job,” I really mean it, because your people and you wanted to engage yourself into a matter that, as a matter of fact, very few people wanted to do. And also your commitment to stabilize the region and to bring peace and stability to the region is something that we appreciate a lot. It’s something of utmost significance for us.”

The best the New York Times could do was conclude that these announcements:

“provided Trump with a diplomatic win ahead of the November presidential election and furthers his administration’s push to improve Israel’s international standing.”

  • The signing of the Abraham Accords and peace treaties between Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain on 15 September—the first peace treaties between Israel and Arab states since 1994.

The New York Times greeted these historic and ground breaking agreements advancing world peace and helping to end the Jewish-Arab conflict that has raged unresolved for 100 years with articles headlined:

      • “A White House Ceremony Will Celebrate a Diplomatic Win and Campaign Gift”
      • “The leaders of Israel, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have a stake in President Trump’s re-election and helped him become a peacemaker.”
      • “The U.A.E.-Israel Flight Is Nothing to Celebrate”
      • “Israel, U.A.E. and Bahrain Sign Accords, With an Eager Trump Playing Host

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany called out reporters for not asking even one question about Trump’s accomplishment and, instead, finding fault with the peace deals rather than give President Trump credit:

“What I will weigh into is the Middle East deal, the Middle East peace deal, signed yesterday that I did not receive a single question about. That was the first time it’s happened in a quarter-century. If Obama and Biden had achieved this, it would look a lot different. You wouldn’t have (MSNBC’s) Chuck Todd saying he’s uncomfortable with the deal that brings peace between the United Arab Emirates and Israel and Bahrain. You wouldn’t have CBS calling it ‘a business deal’.”

Two of the greatest foreign policy successes by any President ever are played down by the mainstream media as it continues to give no credit to the President in a concerted effort to see him fail to earn a second term.

Mainstream media fake news will certainly continue unabated until Election Day.

Democrats obsession with recession will cause increasing depression

  The three R's--reading, writing and arithmetic--seem set to be replaced by Russia, racism and recession - when Democrats seek reasons for their defeat in the 2020 elections Bill Maher—the host of HBO show  Real Time  - is growing increasingly worried that his wish for a recession to be visited on American voters still has not yet materialized. On 9 June 2018 Maher had  told  his viewers: “Can I ask about the economy because this economy is going pretty well? …. I feel like the bottom has to fall out at some point. And by the way, I’m hoping for it. Because I think one way you get rid of Trump is a crashing economy. So, please, bring on the recession. Sorry if that hurts people, but it’s either root for a recession or you lose your democracy,” Maher  returned  to this theme on 22 June 2018: “A recession is a survivable event; what Trump is doing to this country is not….I’m not rooting for a disaster, the disaster’s already here. If a recession is what...

Mainstream media lack credibility where Trump is concerned

Fake news or fair comment? Readers can make up their own minds The mainstream media have been tripping over themselves to denigrate President Trump in the wake of his interview with ABC News’ Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos. Stephanopoulos spent 30 hours with the President flying on Air Force One to Iowa, traveling in his armored vehicle, greeting him in his West Wing residence and in the Oval Office for a day of meetings, and sitting down for a one-on-one interview in the White House Rose Garden. During the course of that interview   the  following discussion  took place: Stephanopoulos:  Your campaign this time around, if foreigners, if Russia, if China, if someone else offers you information on opponents, should they accept it or should they call the FBI? President Trump:  I think maybe you do both. I think you might want to listen, there’s nothing wrong with listening. If somebody called from a country, Norway, “we have information on your opponent.” Oh, ...

Pelosi can commit political suicide or help heal partisan rift

  This is the moment of truth and reckoning for the Democrats' leadership House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has acted wisely in not immediately transmitting the Trump articles of impeachment to the Senate to jump start the President’s trial. Her stated reasons at her weekly  press conference  however are certain to only produce more confrontation between Democrats and Republicans: “I – just to get this off the table right away, if we impeach the President immediately, everybody moves on to the next thing.  The next thing for us will be when we see the process that is set forth in the Senate, then we’ll know the number of managers that we may have to go forward, and who we would choose.  That’s what I said last night.  That’s what I’m saying now.” Pelosi will be waiting a long time. She is in no position to dictate how the Senate conducts the trial. The Senate will not do anything until the impeachment articles are delivered to the Senate. Pelosi was doing nothing ...
