The media treats, or at least during the primaries treated, Trump much more favorably than they treat Sanders. They gave him unlimited airtime with no criticism or fact checking at all.

Trump attacks the media as a fascist, to bully them into submission. To keep them on the path of no resistance.

Bernie merely points out the media bias against even putting him on the air. With him, the media is on the path of most resistance.

There is no similarity whatsoever.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
