I believe it was Harvard who did some research recently, and determined that Fox News (yes, you read that correctly) provided the fairest and most balanced news coverage. The blatantly pro Clinton / anti Trump media scored something like 92% negative coverage. The mainstream media are mostly left leaning and more like a Clinton / Democrat PR arm than an objective organisations reporting the news.

Pro-Trump Fox News was 52% negative to 48% positive.

No safe port in a Trump storm.

The most recent study of this nature that I know of says otherwise:

 

Fox News viewers tend to be less informed about current affairs than people who obtain their news from other news sources and are even less informed than people “who don’t watch any news at all.” That is the controversial conclusion of a new study by Bruce Bartlett, a conservative economist, Treasury Department official under President George H.W. Bush and former adviser on domestic policy to President Ronald Reagan.

The MSM is not "blatantly pro Clinton...."  The MSM is blatantly anti-corrupt, anti-lying, anti-racist, anti-moronic behavior masquerading as our President.  So yes, the MSM (and most intelligent Americans) are blatantly anti-Trump.

Here's a broader picture from a new report from the Pew Research Center for perspective:

Meanwhile several of his acts have been deemed unconstitutional by the courts, including various versions of the travel ban.

“The saddest thing is that because I’m the president of the United States, I am not supposed to be involved with the Justice Department. I’m not supposed to be involved with the FBI.”

He would “love” to send the Justice Department and FBI after former rival HRC, and is “very frustrated” that he can’t.

CNN do a reputable job.  Right wingers don't understand what journalism is.  Anything they read on the internet which dovetails with what they want to believe, is what they will embrace as truth.   They don't understand that anyone can post any sorts of ridiculous things, and many do.  One of the latest trends is to post explanations for why houses in Santa Rosa burned.  Right wingers' beliefs:  it was a government plot to station laser guns in satelites over Sonoma County, in order to test laser weapons.  I jest not.  There are multitudes of right-wingers who believe that.  If in doubt, look at the responses to the silly videos on Youtube.   

 

Trump is digging himself into a deep cess pool.  Everyone around him is getting soiled.  Watergate had nearly 70 indictments, many of whom did prison time.  Trump-Russia thing is bigger than Watergate.  Don't be surprised if there are around 100 indictments, with Trump and his family members doing hard time.  

 

I wouldn't be surprised if Mueller's team is putting indictments for Trump family members in sealed envelopes with instructions:  "open the day after Trump is out of office"  Why?  Two reasons:

A.   A sitting prez can't be indicted, and

B.   Trump will be frantically issuing pardons. But he can only do so while prez.  Connect the dots.  That's what Mueller's team is doing.

The Constitution specifies that it's the president's prerogative to nominate a supreme court nominee and Congress should vote on that person.  Trump spoke contrary to the Constitution when he advised verbatum; 'delay, delay, delay' re; Obama's right and duty to nominate someone.  Trump is also going against the Constitution re; emoluments clause.  There are lawsuits on the issue as we speak.  There are several other ways Trump is crapping on the Constitution, but it's late, and I'll let you do your own research.  If you're a die-hard Trump fan, you're not going to do any realistic research, and instead rely upon the ridiculously fake right-wing excuse for media.   Maybe their lead stories on cheeseburger emojis will be your guiding light.

 

A prez also takes an oath of office, part of which is to 'uphold the laws of the land.'  Trump is actively trying to trash at least one law, the ACA.  Therefore he is breaking his oath of office.

I doubt there are many that would argue with your list.  No matter their political label.  We should be fighting for these things together.  Not letting our elected officials drive our decisions and create divisions.  Approval rating for congress is below 20%.  Reform is desperately needed.

Start with campaign finance reform and most of the other issues take care of themselves. To paraphrase Upton Sinclair; "It is difficult getting a man to understand something when his re-election depends on his not understanding it."

Report: amid Trump-Russia arrests, Donald Trump begins inquiring about resignation

 

Now that Special Counsel Robert Mueller has begun arresting and flipping people in Donald Trump’s Russia scandal, it seems just a matter of time before Trump’s presidency topples, and his freedom and fortune come under great risk.

 

Trump initially used two allies to float the idea that he may not seek a second term, sending a signal that he may be trying to find a way out. Now comes a report that he’s begun inquiring about resignation.

Clicked on your link. Just wondering; is that website illustrative of where you mold your informed opinion?

Then why is he at 33% in the polls?  Because this is meaningless or rubbish or has nothing to do with him.  Next.

Yeah, give the guy a chance to obstruct justice, create a constitutional crisis, strip the poor of health care, strip the EPA of public protections in the name of corporate profits, privatize education, and make the super rich richer with his billionaire tax reform scam while dividing and tearing the US apart.  Yeah, give this honest, respectful, uniting guy a chance, will ya?

You're right it is meaningless. The US president has virtually nothing to do with the economy.  I'm sure where our opinions will diverge is that the same held true in the Obama presidency.

I'm in favor of stripping both the poor and the elderly of government subsidized healthcare until those same benefits are available to the citizens who provide it to them.  Seen in that light I think the morass that is the American healthcare system could be cleaned up right quickly.
