The Media's Free Pass for Bitter Democrats

Even before President Trump gave his first State of the Union, the left was complaining that he was going to look "Presidential." It still can't accept that he is president and gets to give presidential speeches.

The Trump speech was beautiful, at some points even poetic, and delivered well.

Even The New York Times editorial page acknowledged through gritted teeth that Trump was "Right to observe" that the economy and the stock market look great and "Deserved to take a bow for the degradation of the Islamic State."

A CBS News-YouGov poll found that a whopping 75 percent approved of the speech, and 43 percent of Democrats liked it! People watching the speech at home saw the Democrats for who they are: bitter, insulting radicals incapable of being joyful for America.

On ABC, Cokie Roberts actually blamed Trump for talking about the national anthem: "There were many African-Americans, members of Congress, there wearing kente cloth - African cloth. The president never mentioned Africa, never said anything like that, so there was not anything there for them to relate to."

On NBC, Chuck Todd declared that Trump failed to be "Conciliatory" to Democrats on immigration and claimed that the president painted a picture of "This mythical immigrant criminal here that I want everybody to get fired up about."

The public saw a side of Donald Trump it heartily liked.
