How Crying Wolf made Trump Possible

How Paul Krugman Made Donald Trump Possible

His convention was called “one of the worst ever.” Chris Matthews deemed him “dangerous” and “scary,” Ellen DeGeneres said “If you’re a woman, you should be very, very scared.” His opponent ran an ad against him portraying him as uniquely dangerous for women. “I’ve never felt this way before, but it’s a scary time to be a woman,” said a woman in the ad.
He was frequently called a “bully,” “anti-immigrant,” “racist,” “stupid,” and “unfit” to be president.
I’m referring, obviously, to the terrifying Mitt Romney.
This article chronicles the numerous times the liberal media has demonized Republican candidates and makes the point that outside of the liberal echo chamber (represent aptly here by Roger Amick), nobody really is paying attention to them about Trump

In fact they are more concern about Clinton's record of incompetence and deception at the state department simply because, coming from the FBI director, it rings true. 

The media of course will double their effort to demonize Trump. However, I have a feeling that the more they do, the more they are going to be tuned out by the public. 

On the other hand, negative stories about Hillary Clinton will tend to be magnified simply because the will be at best underreported and at worst covered up by the media.

"The media of course will double their effort to demonize Trump."

It's almost as if CNN and FOX are coordinating their efforts. (I suppose Hannity isn't playing along? )

CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, New York Times, Washington Post certainly. They have declared war on Donald Trump.

FOX on the other hand has a love/hate relationship with Trump.

They can't go too far in criticizing him or they will alienate their core audience.

I take that as a compliment.

His own words are sinking him, not the liberal media.
