US media intensify pretext for ousting Trump

BATTLE FOR WORLD / RT – January 17, 2018: The article highlights that since the election of Trump in 2016, powerful elements in the US political and media establishment have been running a non-stop campaign to remove Trump from the White House. And the relentless quest has only intensified over the many months.

Fronting the media effort to throw out Trump are the New York Times and Washington Post, where both have been prominent purveyors of the “Russiagate” narrative over the past two years, claiming that Republican candidate colluded with Russian state intelligence, or at least was a beneficiary of alleged Russian interference, to win the presidency against Democratic rival Hillary Clinton – was the favorite projected to win.

The article asserts, what’s going on here is a staggering abuse of power by the US’ top internal state intelligence agency to fatally undermine a sitting president based on the flimsiest of pretexts.

The nation’s most prominent news media outlets – supposedly are the defenders of democracy – are complacently giving their assent, indeed encouragement, to this abuse of power.

The absence of “sane minds” seems to have prompted the US media to intensify their efforts nonstop to delegitimize Trump’s presidency.
