    I disagree, the “media” is trying to get trump elected. When I say media, I mean 80% of the mainstream publications. Some are insanely left, so much so that it looks like a parody (looking at you Huffington Post). But here is why I suspect that is so:

    • Trump is great for getting outrage clicks from all sides. The people who love him, to see the liberal tears. And the people who hate him because they’re worried about America’s future and are actually crying.
    • They are mostly owned and/or ran by the 1%. See here. https://sh.itjust.works/post/20890256 They’re probably being promised tax breaks and lots of other shit. They forget that no one wants to live in a 1% utopia of either being their slaves or living in a rich HOA with libertarians as the president.
