Ezra Klein is absolutely appalled, you guys. Appalled that Donald Trump actually earned some rare kudos for the media after opening his bipartisan immigration meeting to them yesterday, despite making a pretty glaring mistake:

See, according to Ezra, President Obama never would’ve gotten away with something like that:
Imagine if Obama, during the health care summit, had endorsed replacing Obamacare with Medicare premium support before a congressional Democrat jumped into correct him. Would the press have cheered that as a command performance by the president? https://t.co/2LW1TW9Vkb

Uh, yeah?

The media would have praised him regardless of outcome.
