Not only does Trump avoid outside associations with non-MAGA media, he has also populated his administration with personnel that he recruited from Fox News.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=64165\" target=\"_blank\">Trump\u2019s Nominees Are Largely Fox News Alum, Mar-a-Lago Patrons, and Billionaires<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Which explains why Trump just did yet another interview with the Senior Trump-Fluffer on Fox News, Sean Hannity. On Tuesday night Hannity aired the interview that Trump did in tandem with his co-president, Elon Musk, to whom he seems to have delegated most of his presidential duties. Musk also appears to have replaced Trump&#8217;s other partners, JD Vance and Melania.<\/p>\n<p>The interview was just as cringeworthy an episode as you might imagine. The three of them were grossly enthralled with each other to the point of being unable to control their drooling. In the first minute of the interview Musk gushed that <em>&#8220;I love the president.&#8221;<\/em> But their mutual admiration was matched by their animosity toward the free press. And that was never more obvious than when Trump went off on all of the non-Fox media that he despises so much&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Trump:<\/strong> The media is so bad. When I watch MSNBC, which I don&#8217;t watch much, but you have to watch the enemy on occasion, the level of arrogance and cheating, they&#8217;re just horrible people. They lie. These are horrible people<br \/>\n<strong>Hannity:<\/strong> They tell lies.<br \/>\n<strong>Musk:<\/strong> They tell conspiracy theories.<br \/>\n<strong>Trump:<\/strong> And they start up with the Constitution. They couldn&#8217;t care less about the Constitution. CNN, likewise. I mean, I watch them asking questions with, you know, the hatred. I said, why are you asking the question with such anger? You&#8217;re asking me a normal question, but you see the bias. The bias is so incredible. Those two are bad. PBS is bad. AP is bad. CBS is terrible.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Wow.

Trump regurgitated many of the fantastical claims that are a routine part of his repertoire. But more significant were the subjects that were not discussed, including some of the issues that Trump made integral parts of his campaign. Little or no mention was made of Ukraine, Gaza, Social Security, immigration, healthcare, taxes, and his threatened annexations of Greenland, Mexico, and Canada.<\/p>\n<p>Even his beloved DOGE was mostly left out of this interview. With Musk sitting right next to him they never talked about the agencies that were closed, or the people that were fired. They never addressed the fact that prosecutors and Justice Department officials were terminated; that nuclear stockpiles were left unsupervised; that public health researchers who monitor the safety of food and medicine, and who guard against potential pandemics were let go; that investigators who protect American consumers from fraud were sacked.<\/p>\n<p>They clearly couldn&#8217;t care less about the welfare of the American people. And they couldn&#8217;t care less about the Constitution or democratic government. All they care about is accumulating more power and enriching themselves and their wealthy pals. Which is why they are so fixated on hating the media. They need to prevent any possibility of the truth getting out to the public.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully the media will rise to the occasion and stand up for themselves and the First Amendment. If they are smart they will refuse to cover Trump and his regime until they show the proper respect for the Constitution. Former CNN anchor, Jim Acosta, made a good case for this recently&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Let the American people see this image: an aspiring autocrat in the Oval Office, surrounded only by his propaganda outlets and right-wing hacks.
