Ingraham: Media Have "Pavlovian Obsession" With News About Trump And Russia

Laura Ingraham said the media has such a Pavlovian obsession with Russia that they sweep good press about President Trump under the rug.





LAURA INGRAHAM: We keep hearing that Europeans don't like him, that he's really unpopular, etcetera, etcetera. Well, a lot of our friends in the media were saying a lot of similar thing about President Reagan in the 1980s. I am not saying Donald Trump is President Reagan but I am saying of course that American presidents have often when they stand for American interests first, they have often gotten rocky receptions in Europe.



That having been said, I think Donald Trump has actually had some great interactions with foreign leaders. Again, which is swept under the rug by a media obsessed with like Pavlovian obsession with this story about Russia to the exclusion of all else.



Macron stood with Vladimir Putin and had a joint press conference a few weeks back when Putin visited. Of course Angela Merkel very tight with Putin because of the pipeline and the gas that they need in Europe. And I think it was a good day for President Trump. We will see what comes of it.
