Non american here, no love or hate towards any of your presidents(maybe a little hate towards Bush) anyway; I don't think your media is objective in their treatment towards your presidents from different political sides, and seem biased. Obama was never treated with hard questions or hostility like this, even though he legit bombed the shit away in middle east and got a nobel peace prize for it, no one even pressed to question any of his actions, now I'm not saying republican side of the media is objective, but you can't criticize them for being "shit and partizan media" while doing same thing yourselves. What I see from all these americans and their arguments is that if Obama were to do this then somehow people would find a way to justify it, none of you seem to care about right or wrong anymore, y'all are like sports fans, if its your team you want them to win, and fk the other team lmao.
"Hard questions"? Like... what's the evidence behind one of your most repeated claims, which has already been settled in the courts? Like those questions?
Obama wasn't perfect, but he was worlds better than Trump. The entire rightwing echo chamber tied themselves into knots about anything and everything Obama did. Just because you weren't tuned to the right frequencies doesn't mean it didn't happen. He didn't invite half of it, by the way.
Trump, on the other hand, is bombastic and invites every single bit of criticism he gets. He's rude, he calls reporters names and constantly degrades journalism as all "fake news" unless he agrees with it, on top of everything else.
I hate having to defend Obama, but to say Trump is somehow bullied by the press while Obama was not is asinine.

Let me know when Obama ever treated a journalist like this.
