Donald Trump and his party ran the government the past 4 years and failed the basic test of governing, especially keeping the people safe. It is time for the news media to move on and let go of the lying liars. The media's attention should be on the plans and policy of the new administration and the democratic controlled congress and how they plan to deal with the many problems they inherited. The future is at stake and not in the best interest of America if the future looks like the failed past.
So the media, who has become more of an entertainment industry should be positive to new ideas planned by the Biden administration to change the status quo with policies that will have meaningful changes to move the country and its people forward and in a different direction than the last 4 years. If the media checked the facts they will find that democratic administrations offer real plans and policies to deal with the real issues. The media failed to report all the good legislation the democratic controlled U.S. House passed the last two years only to see that legislation die in the republican controlled Senate without even debate.
The media should be reporting on the actions taken by the new President and the democratic controlled congress because they were elected to lead this great country. Time will tell how effective their policies and plans will be and are off to a good start. It is now about a democratic administration that the people put their trust in. It is a new chapter in American history to prove we can do better than the past for our country and its people.
The GOP has already tried to frame the conversation that Biden's policies will be job killers, and the media is culpable in pushing those false talking points and their failure to point out that Trump and his party left office with the worst job creation record since the great depression and that historically, democratic administrations are much better at job creation. It is time for the media to step up to the plate and keep America informed about President Biden's agenda and what he is doing to reverse the serious problems his administration has inherited.
The present is the democrats time to show what they can do for their country. And it is the media's time to stand up and tell the American people the democratic story that is taking place.
