Dupes of the mainstream media no more. A few even noticed the parting shot Obama took against Israel. And Britain's slam of Obama for doing so. <br /><br />Since every appointment, idea, and tweet from Mr. Trump is meant with equal parts horror, disdain and fear mongering in the main stream media, it is no wonder that the susceptible became frighty-scared.
