"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 just to take it, like every other individual as well. The president has no more power over the media than any other citizen even if he likes to think otherwise. Trying to bash and control media are clear signs of someone who would rather like to be a dictator than a democratic leader.

If anything the president should be even more professional than any other individual in the country. He is doing the opposite right now despite being the top role model of an entire country. If he can't take the heat from the media he chose the wrong office to run for. Which is funny, since he always like to present himself as the absolute alpha male and at the same time is running for his safe space the moment he gets attacked.
