Because the News media is owned by corporate interests that want an authoritarian to rule, as long as they get tax cuts. They love it now, but in the long run they will hate it, and we already see that with them caving to Trump and settling his lawsuits
That's why when we get a real progressive president. We need them to investigate and eliminate every rich person who has donated, helped, voted for the Republican party and Donald Trump. Only way to fix America. Tax the survivors and label them as terrorists if they try to escape the country.
