Remember when Hillary called him Putin’s puppet? Does he not look like a puppet on a string in that photo?

Normalizing Trump? To be expected from most of America’s corporate media. IMO, most of them have lost their credibility. They may still be a tier or two above News Max, the Daily Caller, and other propaganda organs, but they p**sted away the credibility they once had groveling to right-wing influencers and kissing the incumbent administration’s (backsides), and no serious person should believe that they’ll earn it back any time in the next quarter-century.

If you’re an American and you want truthful and accurate journalism, you’ll have to go elsewhere.

What will be infuriating if the Good Guys win in 2026 and 2028, the corporate news media will try to convince their audiences by spending the next few years attacking Democrats and giving Republicans more free passes.
