Top Ten News on Trump Not Reported by the Media

If you are a regular audience of the broadcast or cable news channel, or you read the major newspapers like the New York Times and Washington Post...you would have a very negative opinion of President Trump. It was reported that 90% of the coverage on Trump was negative. How can that be?

In a discussion forum right here on HubPages, one hubber suggested that one reason is that Trump was so bad as president, the reporting reflects his performance in office.

I challenged him to come up with some real data to back up his claim. This article is a response to him.

I am going to list some top 10 most ignored news in the past year. In a way, I am doing the job of the media. For one reason or another, they don’t think it is news unless it is a scandal about Trump.

There is a reason trust in the news media is at a all time low. Besides the bias reporting, we are also seeing yellow journalism treated as breaking news.

Between the media, and celebrities and the Democratic resistance, and the “deep state”, and the intelligence agencies, and the RINO GOP members of Congress and the Washington insiders...you have to wonder how does anything gets done by Trump.

Besides appointing conservative justices to the Supreme court, Trump has appointed over 100 lower court judges to the bench. These will have tremendous impact on our legal system long term. The liberal left cannot use the court to get their way anymore.

Trump has reverse the tide on out sourcing and manufacturing jobs going overseas. He has created 6 million new jobs and brought back over 10,000 factories to America.

Trump has put the spotlight on the current Opioid epidemic. Trump has declared a National Health Emergency regard to the Opioid epidemic.

Trump has signed legislation to reform our prison incarceration system. This has helped many low level drug offenders and reduced their prison sentences.

Trump has worked to renegotiate our one-sided trade deals. This was long overdue. Our economy and jobs and trade balance are all linked to these policies which in many cases were biased against the American consumer and workers and farmers. These new deals will make a level playing field where everyone can compete on the same level.

These temporary tariffs against China are just the negotiation tactics to get the people‘s attention and bring them to the bargaining table. Some short term pain may be felt but long term gains is worth the effort.

The Attorney General is in the process of investigating what went wrong in the independent counsel investigation into Russian Collusion. There were many irregularities in how the 2016 election was conducted. The agencies of our government was used to investigate and spy on a presidential candidate from the opposing party. This should never happen again to any candidate for high office. The integrity of our election process cannot be undermined.

After 8 years of spending cuts to the military, we are finally re-building our military. We have also started a new Space Force. We are also looking to return to the moon and beyond. America and Trump is a strong believer in peace through strength.

Trump is working to fix our roads and bridges and airports...He is also building the wall in our southern borders as he promised. It is slower than I would like to see due the the opposition from the House of Representatives under Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Trump has passed legislation to allow Veterans to see Doctors outside the over burdened VA system. This will reduce wait time for veterans seeking medical help.

Trump was elected as an outsider to the power structure in DC. He has said on numerous occasions that we need to drain the swamp that is entrenched in DC. Since elected, many congressmen from both parties has elected to not run for re-election. This is a good thing. We need new blood in the halls of Congress. Also, many political appointments has been fired or replaced. Some are being investigated for corruption. This is only a start. Much more needs to be done to get the system cleaned up. Too much influence by lobbies and families of Congressmen that distorts our democracy. Influence peddling is a big part of the symptom that is wrong in DC.

President Trump in a few short years of his first term has become one of the most consequential president in modern history. His accomplishments are numerous. Despite attacks on a daily basis from the media and the Democrats, he is getting the job done for the America people.
