Why is the media so bent on getting Trump to demonize Putin?

I don't see how that helps anything. All it would do is stir him up and create completely unnecessary friction between the US and Russia.
Is Putin a bad guy? Of course. Do they really want a war with Russia? It's absolutely a good idea to shy away from demonizing him. Unless diplomatic relations have utterly failed beyond repair, it serves 0 purpose.

No one is trying to get @real to "demonize" Putin.
Everyone is perplexed by @real's hardon for Putin, starting with his lie that he has a great relationship with the man, which he later recanted as having never met the man, but he said nice things, when the truth was, Putin mocked @real by calling him flamboyant. Hard to believe it's gotten worse, with @real most recently likening the not-so-innocent USA, full of killers, to Putin. It's genuinely bizarre. If @real were a Democrat, you people would be calling him a traitor.

You are mischaracterizing the complaint. It isn't that he "isnt demonizing" Putin. Its that he has consistently praised Putin while being openly critical of our traditional allies in Europe. That is frightening and it really isnt all that hard to understand why folks are "so bent" if you dont fail to define the behavior properly.

Most of this board had a raging hard-on for Putin not too long ago.

The United States has not had a real issue with Russia in 30 years
For some reason these fricking assholes want to wind that clock back

The media has Obama on a hot mic telling Putin's protege to "tell Vlad I will have a lot more flexibility (to reduce nukes) after I get elected" and no one called him a Putin sycophant. Strange how this works eh? Trump has done nothing to show weakness to Russia, yet the media is calling him all but a traitor. Obama actually sells us out and crickets.

They want the war that Clinton promised Wall Street.

I don't get it either OP. What's he supposed to say, "Yes I think Putin is scum". Russia is a major world player and it's best for our country if Putin likes him. Obviously he isn't going to call him a piece of shite on national tv. I don't even see the point in asking the President that kind of question. It's one topic we all know he can't be completely honest about.

The left has suddenly taken to trashing Russia with fake news because, Putin has is not going along with the one world government crap.

I do recall when Obama made the comment about more flexibility on nukes after the election.
MSM like Reuters referred to Obama being "caught" saying it. LINK
Breitbart headlines said Obama to Putin: I'll Surrender America After Re-election.
The right roasted Obama for what it saw as risking the security of the free world by cuddling up to a murderous dictator. Go read the comments.
Now their tune has changed. Why must we "demonize" Putin? Can't we all just get along with our Russian friends? Kumbaya, comrades.

Agree but it's not just the media; the establishment types in DC are hell bent on it too

I'll bet they look back fondly at FDR's cozying up to Stalin.
A bigger monster than Hitler himself if you count bodies.

Republican leadership is not all buying the "Putin's not so bad; we're killers too" program.

On CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell offered a different description of Putin. “He’s a thug,” McConnell said.
“The Russians annexed Crimea, invaded Ukraine, and messed around in our elections. I don’t think there’s any equivalency between the way Russians conduct themselves and the way the United States does.”

Maybe you should find out who owns all the media and connect the dots. If you can't figure out why they would hate Putin so much then look into the breakup of the Soviet Union and what Putin has done since he took power. If you can't figure it out after that then I say they have done a good job of indoctrinating.

It's really damn simple
Trump sees the Soros golbalist trying to create a one world government. They are using the Muslims as their army. They have flooded Europe with Muslim poors in order to collapse the independence of European nations and breed out the white middle class.
They attempted this is Russa. Putin is a nationalist. He has presided over the largest growth of Christianity in the world. He stopped them in Russa. They frocking hate him for it.
Trump sees the real threat. Marxist globalist progressive traitors in our countries bringing in third world poors to collapse western capitalist nations and China on the rise. It will take the old allies getting back together to stop it.
The British commonwealth, America and Russa to beat them in the next world war. The progressive Marxist globalist, their Muslim hordes and the Chinese want nothing more than to stop the allies from reforming the ww2 winning team. They use the media and useful idiot progressives to work towards that end, stalling long enough to allow the white western middle class in Europe and the USA to be displaced by the massive minority breeding meant to displace them.
Trump knows that we need the old allies back together because Europe, except maybe the UK, is lost.

Speaking of demons, it probably has something to do with Soros.
