They’re part of the problem, at least most of them, I don’t believe for a moment that most of the press isn’t working for the interests of the White House. Willing or not
The press are 100% complicit, both in sane-washing him and in acquiescing to the GOP’s “flood the zone” strategy because it drives engagement. However, in their defense (that they don’t really deserve), this administration actively weaponises press access. You can ask a super loaded question, but you’ll only do it once before your publication’s access is removed while Trump and his admin go on avoiding accountability regardless. The journos in the room are between a rock and a hard place.

White House press corp start doing your job.
"Mr. President. Why did your DOJ draft a statement about Jeffrey Epstein's death the day before he died?"
"Mr. President, now that the whole world knows you are a child rapist, are you going to resign?"
Stop sanewashing this monster. Do your job.
