It’s been ten years, folks. Do I need to say more about the liberal media’s coverage of anything President Trump does? It’s always hyperbolic and wrong.

And then, there was this river of crazy, where CBS tried to frame Abigail Spanberger as a moderate, whilst going off about how the president had a “dark art” about framing the illegal alien question. Oh, and CNN’s Abby Phillip likened our servicemembers receiving Medal of Honor designations to game-show antics:
JAKE TAPPER: "He said, 'these people are crazy I'm telling you, they're crazy.' That's not something we ever heard from Obama or Biden from that that stage."

CNN's Abby Phillip says awarding American heroes with the Congressional Medal of Honor, the Purple Heart, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom was nothing more than a "game show type moment."
