Did the press ever give Trump the traditional "honeymoon"?

Is this Trump's so called "honeymoon"?

It seems as if the MSM has been in attack mode from the words "I solemnly swear..."

To be fair, they've both been toe to toe since the primaries.

No, the media didn't give him a honeymoon.

And there's nothing wrong with the media asking legitimate questions of the president, but we all know why they are pushing hard now after 8 years of bowing down to the Obama White House.

Press wants an annulment. They would go for it today but Pence would be worse, just divisive social repression without the changes on trade.

The media has an important role to play in our system.

Too bad they haven't met their obligations to our society.

Too main in the MSM have allied themselves with the Democrats, and even many of the belt way Republicans. They are as much a part of the status quo as the pols themselves.

We need some honest, intellectual muckrakers to challenge authority.

GP, Trump don't need no honeymoon. He's already had three of them. Says they are way overrated. I tend to agree with him.

When you get drunk at the wedding and call your wife a ho and a bitch, you don't get much of a honeymoon.

Nope. They have been attacking him since June 2015.

This is why he does not need to give up Twitter and does not need to "make up and play nice" with the press. They hate him and they will always hate him.

Donald Trump did nothing to deserve this.

Well, the MSM gave Obama 8 years of it and many of them lost market share in the process. I guess they wanted to shake things up.

I didn't expect them to suddenly play nice. They are leftists. They support THE AGENDA.

Honestly, I hope he battles them the entire way. I don't expect him to run again beause of his age. Also, I think he'll figure out that politics sucks a big donkey tail if that hasn't hit him already. So, it's not like he needs them to be nice to help with re-election. Not as if they would help anyway.

He declared war on the media. He didn't want a honeymoon.
