Pro-Trump media outlets and commentators don’t seem to be falling out of love with the president. President Trump got cover Friday morning from the likes of the Drudge Report, Breitbart News and Fox News on the Senate’s failure hours earlier to repeal the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare. Its top story on Friday noted Trump’s “disappointment” over Republicans’ failure “to keep their promise to the American people,” without mentioning the Trump had made the same pledge during the campaign. Sessions is a beloved figure among the president’s supporters, so Trump’s tweet-shaming of Sessions caused some cognitive dissonance within the conservative-media ecosystem. The lead paragraph of its story Thursday night sarcastically noted that Scaramucci has tried to steal the spotlight from Trump before.
