"Fighting fire with fire" especially in the currently trash tier political discourse is simply unprofessional. As is saying "but but but other people are mean too!"

So far I haven't seen any politician in the US, be it left or right, sink as low as the current president who has been lowering the bar for professional conduct every week since he ran for office.

Well people want the media to be free to say whatever it wants about the president... and I mostly support that.

But the president has to just take it? Eh, maybe Trump showed it doesn't have to be like that and nobody gets it worse than the right.

Nobody has ever been attacked like Trump and he's admitedly not a real politician. But as long as he pushes the agendas of his supporters, he will get support. That's how this works.

Yes the president has to "take it". Every president has done so. That's part of the fucking job, if you didn't want criticism DON'T RUN FOR PRESIDENT. This is like joining boxing and then complaining that you don't like getting punched. What exactly did you think you were getting into?

Obama was trashed non-stop by a lot of people who really basically lost their shit over a black man as president. Is anyone asking for Donald Trump's birth certificate? As long as he pushes policies that a good majority of people oppose he will also always have resistance. That's also how this works.
