You can not expect the media or public to give favorable reviews and have positive attitudes towards trump when he and his administration are routinely and consistently caught telling provable lies and saying stupid or misinformed comments.
That does not justify 90% slanted or fake news. Obama told lies all the time, and bigger lies, and still the MSM fawned over him. Remember the initial Obamacare rollout disaster? Trump, as president, deserves honest coverage, and an "exaggeration" is not a lie. Arguing over Trump's crowd size compared to everyone would save at least $2,500 a year on healthcare aren't comparable.
Obama did not tell provable lies on a daily basis. He wasn't using the office of the President to line his own pockets nor was he selling access to the President via his golf clubs. He didn't blame others for his own failures. In his first 100 Days, he passed the stimulus package and 28 other pieces of legislation. And he didn't spend 3 days out of every 7, on vacation. He went golfing once.
When you compare their accomplishments in the first 100 Days, Obama was prepared and ready to get to work. Trump has blundered around, screwing up everything he tried. And then there's the whole Russian investigation.
Obama had no interest in how the size of his Inauguration Day crowd was, while Trump was fixated on it for weeks. Trump is still fixated on his victory, handing out final EC. Tallies to WH visitors last week.
Both Obama and Trump got the press they deserved. If Trump wants better press, he could try doing a better job.
If obstructionist Democrats would get out of his way, he could do his job.
If they don't use legislative powers, they use activist judges to stop him. You have to understand that your side is scared to death of of Trump. If what he does actually works, it's curtains for the Democrat party.
