The Trump supporters aren't wrong about the media.

It's not that the media has a liberal bias, it's not even that they don't have a conservative bias. They just overwhelmingly don't have a Trump bias. <br><br>The Trump supporters are right. It's okay to acknowledge that the media treats Trump differently to Clinton and Sanders. The Trump supporters are correct in that the media has an obvious bias against Trump because Trump is just so over-the-top with what he says, especially in comparison to Clinton and Sanders, who are both pretty reasonable in their words, unlike Trump.<br><br>I'm not saying we should sympathize with Trump supporters. I'm just saying that we should be honest about the media, and the liberal bias that it does have. It's okay to say that the media treats Trump more harshly than Clinton and Sanders because he deserves it. Trump's words are awful, especially in comparison to Clinton and Sanders and we shouldn't use the "both sides do it" argument when it is very obvious that Trump is worse.<br><br>​<br><br>EDIT: I don't mean this as a "The liberal media is out to get Trump and that's why he's unpopular", more like "The media is treating Trump more harshly than Clinton and Sanders, and Trump deserves it because of his actions and words". Also, I doubt anyone who actually supports Trump will read this.
