The media\u2019s disinformation campaign against Trump, however, may not be achieving the desired results. Joe Biden maintains a lead in public polls, but according to the Real Clear Politics polling averages, the gap is closing both <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/epolls\/2020\/president\/us\/general_election_trump_vs_biden-6247.html\">nationally<\/a> and in <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/elections\/trump-vs-biden-top-battleground-states\/\">battleground states<\/a>. Evidence of enthusiasm on the ground is also real: Thousands are again attending MAGA rallies, as Trump takes Air Force One on a \u201cwhistle-stop\u201d tour of the country.<\/p>\n<p>One can almost hear the collective gasp from establishment-media quarters: Can this <em>really<\/em> be h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ening again? Won\u2019t any of our Devastating Reporting ever catch up with the Donald?<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Trump has succeeded \u2014 and will likely continue to succeed \u2014 not in spite of the media campaign against him, but, at least in part, because of it. Voters have grown wise to the media agenda, and recognize stories crafted to fit a certain mold rather than to follow the facts. They know what a smear looks like, and they don\u2019t like it. At the same time, the ceaseless onslaught has made Trump a permanent underdog. And Americans identify with and cheer for underdogs \u2014 an aspect of the national psyche that media and political elites, detached as they are, forget.<\/p>\n<p>Understood in this light, one can see why negative Trump coverage may boomerang, including recent \u201cbombshells\u201d from The Atlantic magazine and Bob Woodward. Citing unnamed sources, The Atlantic <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/politics\/archive\/2020\/09\/trump-americans-who-died-at-war-are-losers-and-suckers\/615997\/\">claimed<\/a> that Trump ridiculed American soldiers killed in war. The story, however, was soon undermined by reality. None of its sources came forward. Officials who did come forward \u2014 including former National Security Adviser John Bolton, a noted Trump critic \u2014 contradicted the account. Voters were left to wonder: Is The Atlantic more interested in harming Trump, particularly with his military supporters, than it is in the truth?<\/p>\n<p>As for Woodward, who taped hours of interviews with Trump for the book \u201cRage,\u201d almost any statement can be grounds for scandal. Speaking to Woodward on March 19, the president said of the novel coronavirus: \u201cI wanted to always play it down. I still like playing it down, because I don\u2019t want to create a panic.\u201d On <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/video\/60minutes-2020-09-13\/%22%20%5Cl%20%22x\">\u201c60 Minutes,\u201d<\/a> Woodward, clearly eager to use the vocabulary of Watergate, suggested Trump was \u201cgoing down the path of deceit and cover-up.\u201d But attentive observers at the time intuited the president\u2019s strategy \u2014 the fact that he wanted to take decisive action against the virus while instilling calm in the nation. Where Woodward sees a tragic cover-up, others will find a common-sense approach to an unfolding crisis, and leadership in the context of often conflicting scientific information.<\/p>\n<p>While the Trump-bashing stories continue to mount, so, also, do Trump\u2019s accomplishments. On Sept. 15, voters watched the signing of the Abraham Accords at the White House: agreements, facilitated by the Trump administration, that normalize and improve ties between Israel and two Persian Gulf states \u2014 the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. Democrats and the mainstream media may dismiss the importance of these historic pacts \u2014 legitimate steps toward peace in the Middle East \u2014 but the American people won\u2019t.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16319220\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-nypost-large-desktop-uncropped wp-image-16319220 lazyload\" alt=\"Democrats and the mainstream media may dismiss the importance of the Abraham Accords that were recently signed, improving relations between Israel and two Middle East nations, but the American people won\u2019t.\" width=\"662\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/abraham-accords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/abraham-accords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/abraham-accords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/abraham-accords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=662 662w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/abraham-accords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1324 1324w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 662px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span>Many Trump fans are buoyed by his positive actions \u2014 like his recent success in the Middle East \u2014 rather than upset by damaging words he may or may not have said.<\/span><span class=\"credit\">JIM LO SCALZO\/EPA-EFE\/Shutterstock<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Nor will they disregard a stock market recovery, good <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> that a vaccine is likely near, or the president\u2019s pressure on obstinate Democrat leaders to conclude another coronavirus relief bill. Trump\u2019s record of action plainly belies his media coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Many Americans see through the negative reporting and agenda-driven commentary. Lacking elite connections and influence, many voters also know, from their own lives, how it feels to be on the wrong side of power \u2014 as when their jobs were offshored, or when their businesses were kept closed by the same governmental elites who endorsed non-socially distanced mass protests during the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>These voters know, in other words, what it feels like to be the underdog, to go up against the establishment. They relate to their president.<\/p>\n<p>It has been said before: Americans root for underdogs. Unfortunately for the nation\u2019s media and political elites, they vote for them, too.<\/p>\n<p><em>Augustus Howard holds a Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge and a J.D. from Duke University School of Law.<\/em>\n            <\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to watch Movies or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more News articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">News category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/09\/19\/why-trumps-negative-press-spurs-millions-to-like-him-even-more\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Why Trump&#8217;s negative press spurs millions to like him even more&#8221; If you want to watch Movies or TV series visit the Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com With Election Day in sight, the mainstream media is reaching a fever pitch in its quest to malign, discredit and defeat Donald Trump.
