A “honeymoon period” is a period of popularity enjoyed by a new leader. Usually, the term refers to an incoming president. Traditionally, both Congress and news outlets give presidents a bit of a break at the start of their first terms, so that they can ease into the office

Yes, I was waiting for Trump's honeymoon period with the press to start when he came into office. Still waiting.
So, I have multiple news sites I like to look at, read and take about 25% away from the BS and try to find out what is really going on in our country and around the world.
I am just waiting for the next mass shooting or terror attack to divert attention from COVID to a new agenda

Well I think that's kind of the point of the OP. Some get a honeymoon (D) and some don't (R). And Trump was correct about the liberal.propaganda outlets being fake news BTW.

Did you expect Trump to get a honeymoon period ?
During the 2016 election campaign all he had to say about the media was " Fake News "
Come on get real.

Trump attacked the media.
The media fought back.
All's fair in love and war.

A red cap has replaced a white hood and it is ridiculous.
