The media is owned by the billionaire ruling class and they picked Trump to do their bidding for them. So while some negative coverage is still there, you're seeing flat out hero worship of almost everything he does right now. If you haven't noticed his "historic and bold strike on Iran." "His stunning cease fire deal." "His amazing parade."

Virtually everything he does right now is not just normalized now, it's put in a light of hero worship, it's incredibly frightening. Trump has turned ICE into a politically motivated hit squad and the media things it's awesome. ICE is going to round up Trump's enemies and the media will talk about how "strong and historic" it all is. He's getting media coverage right now that Putin gets in Russia.
