Saying that liberals are weird and touchy is like noting that the sun is hot and water is wet. Granted, some of that is pure politics. For example, the big story of the week is that Donald Trump convinced North Korea to free three hostages. Surely liberals must be happy about that, right?

Wrong.

Here are some of the mainstream media headlines about that diplomatic triumph.

Are these ridiculous headlines given the situation? Absolutely, but politics is politics. All these media organizations are in the tank for the Democrats and they don’t want to see Trump do well. So, their bias may make you roll your eyes, but it’s understandable.

Ta-Nehisi Coates and other liberals are genuinely offended that one prominent black singer is supportive of Trump and has an open mind about political ideas from the other side. They are so desperate to be offended that a single prominent black man simply disagreeing with them about which political party to support drives them out of their minds.

Gen. John Kelly, President Donald Trump’s chief of staff, said that he believes that President Donald Trump is "embarrassed" by the probe into Russian election meddling.

"Certainly the president is, you know, somewhat embarrassed, frankly. When world leaders come in … you walk in and you know the first couple of minutes of every conversation might revolve around that kind of thing," Kelly said in an interview with NPR.

The chief of staff said he believed the probe would find nothing related to Trump.

"Something that has gone on this long without any real meat on the bone, it suggests to me that there is nothing there, relative to our president," Kelly told NPR.

Former Obama Officials Suggest European States Expel U.S. Ambassadors Over Iran Deal Withdrawal
By Alex Griswold

Thursday that European countries allied with the United States could expel American ambassadors in retaliation for President Donald Trump withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal.

“Europe Doesn’t Have to Be Trump’s Doormat,” wrote Steven Simon and Jonathan Stevenson. Simon served as the National Security Council’s senior director for the Middle East and North Africa, while Stevenson served as the regional director for political-military affairs.

“After months of swaggering hesitation, President Trump finally announced the United States’ withdrawal from the nuclear deal with Iran, to which Britain, France, Russia, China, Germany, and the European Union are also parties,” they wrote. “This action tramples on European leaders, who urged Mr. Trump to exercise restraint in the interest of international security and multilateralism.”
