PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THE MEDIA


MEDIA BIAS AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP OF THE USA

I have to agree with new President Trump of the USA that the Media seem to be biased against him and often twist the news.....Fake News he calls it.

The other evening I watched his 77 minute speech to the Press at The White House. I thought it was a brilliant speech in which he listed some of the positive  actions he had taken since election to honour the promises he had made to the American people.
These included a list of proposed Billion Dollar investments by a number of CEOs of American Car Manufacturers in cities in the USA. Wonderful news for American workers.
In the TV News on CNN and SKY, these investments were not mentioned at all. They concentrated on other issues mainly doubts about Trump Policies like Immigration Controls.
President Trump announced the renewal of the Canadian USA pipeline project which will create thousands of jobs and increase demand for USA Steel. A great Project.
The Media gave this low coverage or preferred to concentrate on environmental issues instead.
The Trump Policies to deal with the 11 Million Illegal Immigrants are presented as an attack on the freedom of all Immigrants.
How dare Illegal Immigrants think that they can enter the USA as they wish without any vetting or permission.
Trump wants to get rid of the drug barons, criminals and felons. I agree entirely. We have the same problem in the UK.

Also during this week I heard Vice President Pence deliver a very reassuring speech at NATO. He gave a forceful reassurance that President Trump and he wanted to assure NATO that the USA fully support them.
The SKY news report included the following comments.....
Did Vice President Pence really talk on behalf of President Trump ?
Did they really mean what they say ? Incredible ! How many times do they want the USA have to repeat this. The Media called the speech a Charm Offensive, a suggestion that American words of support was just that...A Charm Offensive.

Everything The President says, the Media are looking for something critical to say about him. It issuch a pity ! Give the man and his Administration a chance.
The Media say the He had has declared War on the Media. No, he only wants them to be fair and factual in their reporting.

The Media claim that the White House is in chaos. What rubbish.

Remember this Media.....President Trump is doing what he promised the American Electorate he would do. He is keeping his promises. Unusual for Politicians on both sides of the Atlantic.

President Trump's  wish to liaise directly with President Putin is a good thing. If the two leaders can forge a good understanding and avoid confrontation this is a good thing. If they can speed up the defeat of ISiS and radical Islamist terrorists, this is a good thing.
However, on many occasions this effort to talk to Russia is often presented by some of the Media as a weakness and a danger to peace.

I think that Trump  will prove to be a great President. What stamina and dedication he has shown so far. He has reassured Israel. He has forged a good relationship with Canada, Japan and the UK. He has even pleased China with his One China Policy affirmation. He has reassured Europe. He has reassured the American People. He wants peace with Russia from a position of strength.
He is standing up to the leaches and hangers on. He will not allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons. He will help destroy Isis all over the free world. He is committed to trade deals with the UK.
Yes, he must deal with unfair trading deals across the World.
Not a bad performance for a few weeks in the job.

What more do you want ? Please Media......give more balance in your reporting, particularly SKY, CNN and BBC.

Trump is a man who is used to making big decisions. He is not afraid to trust and act on his own judgement. He is a Doer not a career Politician.
