This is absolutely true. I've already had the conversation with a liberal who used the scenario: If you could go back and prevent Hitler from gaining power, would you do it? -as justification for the media bias; because he could no longer deny that Trump is being unfairly targeted by the MSM.
The weird thing about this election is that despite all the bad things coming out about the candidates, people don't seem to care. It's exactly like they're picking sports teams. They're no longer supporters, but fans.
