It was fun watching Kaitlan Collins of CNN the other day as she marveled at Donald Trump’s boundless energy and accessibility.

Collins recently said Trump – unlike his sleepy and media-shy predecessor — hardly ever sleeps and is super-accessible to the press.

But I doubt if Ms. Collins has suddenly decided that Trump isn’t so bad after all.

The CNN anchor and the rest of the liberal mainstream news media will never forgive Trump for his New York-size ego, his unfiltered talk, his mean public persona or his great sense of humor. And the most deranged of them will never stop believing he is a fascist who’s intent on becoming a dictator, which is absurd.

No matter what our president does, the liberal media will never treat him fairly. Evidence of that is their nightly outrage over Trump using ICE to aggressively round up and deport the millions of illegal immigrants his predecessor so warmly welcomed to our country.

Trump obviously has not done everything right or smart – especially on tariffs, for example. Federal spending and budget deficits are still way too high. And his threats to use the FCC against broadcasters whose people or programs are critical of him is not good or wise.

Still, though the left doesn’t get it and never will, Trump is on track to be one of our most historic and game-changing presidents.

In case you haven’t noticed, he is a Washington outsider, someone who generally wants to disrupt, break up or weaken the federal government’s power and scope, not enlarge it.

Unlike his predecessors in both parties, Trump is always seriously looking to cut taxes, get rid of dumb regulations and energize the economy.

DONALD TRUMP

It’s a big reason the liberal media and the socialist left hate him. Another reason is that he’s been getting a bunch of conservative things done that Republicans have been promising to do since I was a teenager.

Overseas, unlike the neocons who’ve been running the State Department for the past 30 years, Trump has been personally working for peace, not for starting foolish wars that we and our grandchildren have to fund or fight.

Trump claims he’s settled or prevented six or seven wars. OK, maybe he’s exaggerating his role in those settlements.

But it doesn’t matter. The liberal media is never going to give him credit for bringing about a single peace deal or for even trying.

Meanwhile, has there ever been a president more open, more transparent and more accessible to the press than Trump?

The sad thing is, given the bias and dishonesty of the liberal news media, half the country never gets to see Trump making fools of them in real time.

The left media reacts to what he says and reports it later in their news cycles the way they see it — and the way they choose to spin it.

Whether it’s ICE arresting illegals in LA or sending National Guard troops to Chicago or Washington, where I hear it’s now safe to go out to dinner at night, the MSM’s news is always slanted in the same direction – against Trump.

This weekend, he is apparently going to go to Israel and Egypt to take part in what everyone hopes will be the first step in a historic and lasting peace deal between Israel and the Palestinians.

An immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza and a return of all hostages reportedly is part of the deal, which would never have happened without Trump’s intense involvement.

If lasting peace is achieved, Trump deserves to be rewarded with a Nobel prize. Will his crucial role in making peace happen be recognized by Democrats and the liberal media?

Let’s hope so.

I bet many of his haters will say Trump only did what he did because of his ego – because he wanted a Noble Peace Prize.

But to that I say, “So what?” The important thing is, he and his boundless energy stopped the killing and destruction in Gaza.

Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
