The mainstream media has made no secret of its disdain for Donald Trump, turning the former president into the perfect scapegoat for every issue under the sun. The portrayal of Trump in these outlets isn’t just negative—it’s aggressively biased, bordering on caricature. Let's be clear: this isn’t journalism; it's a concerted effort to undermine a man who dared to challenge the status quo.
From the moment Trump descended that golden escalator in 2015, the media had already decided who he was—a villain, an outsider, a threat to their carefully constructed narrative. They weren’t interested in what he actually stood for; they were too busy crafting a storyline where Trump was the antagonist in every chapter. And the script hasn’t changed.
Take the so-called "news coverage" during his presidency. It was a relentless barrage of negativity, amplified by a media machine desperate to paint him as a chaotic, reckless leader. Every decision he made, no matter how beneficial to the country, was twisted into something sinister. His tax cuts? Branded as a giveaway to the rich. His efforts to secure the border? Called racist. Even his historic peace deals in the Middle East were downplayed or ignored altogether. The mainstream media was on a mission to ensure that Trump would never be seen in a positive light, no matter the cost to their credibility.
Then there was the Russia hoax, a narrative so flimsy that it eventually collapsed under its own weight. But not before the media milked it for every ounce of anti-Trump sentiment they could muster. Night after night, cable news was dominated by breathless coverage of supposed "collusion," with pundits all but predicting Trump would be dragged out of the White House in handcuffs. And when the truth came out—that there was no collusion—did the media apologize? Of course not. They simply moved on to the next manufactured scandal, hoping the public wouldn't notice.
Even after Trump left office, the media’s obsession hasn’t waned. They still treat him like he’s the biggest threat to democracy, even as the country grapples with real issues like rising inflation, crime, and border security. Why? Because they need a boogeyman, and Trump fits the bill. It’s easier to keep demonizing Trump than it is to address the failures of the current administration, which the mainstream media would rather ignore.
But the media's portrayal of Trump isn't just about him—it's about the millions of Americans who support him. The contempt for Trump extends to his base, who are often depicted as a rabble of ignorant, racist, and uneducated people. It's a lazy stereotype, and it's completely divorced from reality. Trump’s supporters are patriots who believe in the principles this country was founded on: freedom, limited government, and the rule of law. They’re not brainwashed cultists; they’re ordinary Americans fed up with a system that no longer works for them. But the media can’t acknowledge that, because it would force them to confront the very real grievances that drove Trump’s rise in the first place.
So, where does this leave us? In a media landscape where the truth is often sacrificed on the altar of ideology. Where Trump is more of a cartoon villain than a man who, like any other president, had successes and failures. Where objective reporting has given way to partisan hackery. And let's be honest—that’s not likely to change anytime soon. The mainstream media has chosen its side, and it's clear they’re not interested in giving Trump—or his supporters—a fair shake.
In the end, Trump’s portrayal in the media tells us more about them than it does about him. It’s a reflection of their fear, their bias, and their desperation to cling to a narrative that, for many Americans, no longer holds any water.
