The Trump Administration finds itself with an enemy not overseas but right here at home, and it’s called our media.

The media lost big time in the 2016 General Election when they backed the wrong horse in Hillary Clinton. They didn’t ask her the tough questions, they didn’t follow up on leaking stories, they didn’t hold her accountable, and the American voter saw each and every day. Voters watched the media try to denigrate Trump spokesmen and surrogates while giving softball questions to Hillary’s group and they didn’t like it.

They were turned off by it and turned on the Trump’s populist “America First” message. It resonated and brought hope to those who had been in the shadows. But that didn’t stop the media from trying to destroy this administration before it got started.

Now Trump is in the White House, and the media keeps fighting him. They will not report on the major businesses that have said they were staying in the country or investing “billions” into hiring employees and building new plants. They want to attack Trump on trivial things, and Trump’s Chief of Staff Reince Priebus just laid down the gauntlet.

From Daily Mail:

The White House vowed on Sunday to fight the news media “tooth and nail” over what officials see as unfair attacks on President Donald Trump, setting a tone that could ratchet up a traditionally adversarial relationship to a new level of rancor. A day after the Republican president used his first visit to CIA headquarters on Saturday to accuse the media of underestimating the crowds at his inauguration, White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus expressed indignation at the reports and referred to them as “attacks.” “The point is not the crowd size. The point is the attacks and the attempt to delegitimize this president in one day. And we’re not going to sit around and take it,” Priebus said on “Fox News Sunday.” Priebus complained about a press pool report that said the bust of Martin Luther King Jr had been removed from the Oval Office. The report on Friday night was quickly corrected but Trump called out the reporter by name at the Central Intelligence Agency on Saturday, as did spokesman Sean Spicer later in the day. “We’re going to fight back tooth and nail every day and twice on Sunday,” Priebus said.

Nice to see Priebus take this tone and alert the mainstream media they are on notice. This administration is not going to be the punching bag past administrations were, they are built to fight back, and that’s what Americans have wanted for the longest time.
