In 2012, then president, Barrack Obama called Vladimir Putin to congratulate him on his shocking rigged election win.Guess what happened? There was literally one, single, article published about it in Foreign Policy magazine (a publication that is largely only read by foreign policy academics and reporters).

Obama, who forgot to turn his microphone off, placed his hand on President Medvedev’s arm and in a clear statement of Russian-catering said: “This is my last election, after my election I have more flexibility.”
Medvedev then declared, in what certainly paints then-President Obama as Putins-puppet-to-be, “I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir.”

Was Trump supposed to call Putin and say, “F*** you and your rigged elections” – would that have made the MSM happy?
You don’t need to look any further than these side-by-side news searches to spot how disgusting and biased the “American” MSM is against the Trump Administration:
