Hillary Clinton Speaks Out Against President Trump…Yet Again

“I was really struggling with it, and I concluded — as I was, I think, expecting myself to — ‘O.K., you just have to be calm and in control because ultimately, what the country wants is somebody who is not going to be blowing up in the Oval Office.’”

President Trump vs. the Mainstream Media

Since the inception of his 2016 run for office, President Trump has maintained a troubled relationship with the media. Tensions arose when then-candidate Trump and his supporters felt as though the media intentionally misrepresented him throughout the election. However, many Trump critics have controverted the aforementioned assertion; they moreover skeptically questioned why the press would intentionally mislead Americans regarding Trump.

The President and his backers then stated that a Trump Presidency served as a threat to the Establishment. However, this has not changed the minds of Trump’s detractors. His battle with the mainstream media remains ongoing, even to this day. The term “fake news” also arose during the election as a result of then-candidate Trump’s troubled relationship with the press.
