Awww, it’s the day before the 2018 midterms so OF COURSE, your friendly, neighborhood media are out in full force pushing all things anti-Trump in order to hurt Republicans tomorrow at the polls.

These headlines will likely be tame compared to what we see in the next 24-36 hours … but we gotta start somewhere.
Try not to roll your eyes too much.
