President Donald Trump attacked the media again on Saturday morning as the coronavirus pandemic continues to escalate across the United States.
Over 100,000 have been infected by the virus and over 1,500 people have died. Hospitals face severe shortages of beds, ventilators, tests and other vital supplies, which is resulting in medical personnel getting sick as well.
This is an unprecedented crisis, and Trump is lying about it every step of the way. And because the media is fact-checking him and holding him accountable, he is whining about it on Twitter.
So much of the Lamestream Media is writing and broadcasting stories with facts that are made up and knowingly wrong. They are doing it by quoting unnamed sources that simply do not exist. These are very dangerous & corrupt people, who will do anything to win. NAME YOUR SOURCES!

One of the reasons that Fake News has become so prevalent & far reaching is the fact that corrupt “journalists” base their stories on SOURCES that they make up in order to totally distort a narrative or story. When you see, “five sources say”, don’t believe the story, it is….

….very often FAKE NEWS. Lamestream Media should be forced to reveal sources, very much as they did in the long ago past. If they did that, the media would be trusted again, and Fake News would largely be a thing if the past!

Trump is projecting again. He’s the one who is desperate to “win” because he admitted as much earlier this week when he complained that the pandemic hurts his chances of being reelected.
He also called for forcing the media to reveal sources, which would be a violation of the First Amendment and would allow Trump to retaliate against those sources, especially if they work for the government.
Twitter users blasted Trump for whining about how the media is covering the pandemic instead of being concerned about the health and well-being of the American people. After all, Trump has not once expressed any condolences to those who have lost loved ones and he has never mentioned the death toll and number of cases once on Twitter. Trump is also a hypocrite because he often mentions unnamed sources to spread his lies.
unfit for office and growing worse by the hour#ThePresidentIsACrybaby

You are such a whiny ass when you can’t go blow taxpayer money on cheating at golf.

Maybe we misheard Trump and he actually said we would be tired of so much *whining.*

There’s a deadly pandemic that has taken the life of over 1700 Americans in a matter of weeks and Trump is more focused on WHINING About his bad media coverage. Does anyone really want 4 more years of this BS?!

Who in the “Lamestream Media” said this?
“We’re going to be pretty soon at only five people. And we could be at just one or two people over the next short period of time. So we’ve had very good luck.”

This presidency needs to be brought to an end or our country and Constitution will not survive another four years, assuming the pandemic does not kill us all first because of Trump’s incompetence.
