It was supposed to be ‘Fourth Estate of The Realm’ after the executive, the legislature, and the judiciary, but the press has become the fourth estate of ridicule a thesis propounded by US President Donald Trump.
At any given fora, meetings, and press briefings, ‘the press’ has come strongly under attack and ridiculing by President Donald Trump. His relentless ‘fire & fury’ attack recently came down heavily on CNN White House Correspondent, Jim Acosta, who President Donald Trump described, ‘as rude and not fit to be employed by CNN as a reporter’.
President Donald Trump has become a progenitor of ‘fake & false’ news narratives. In recent explosives that were mailed to high profile US Democrats which include; former US President Barack Obama, Hilary Clinton, CNN office, Democrat Senator and some President Donald Trump critics.

In the build up to the recent US mid-term elections on Tuesday, November 6th, 2018, [which drew the highest number of voters turn-out in over 104 years of US election voting history].

United Kingdom Prime Minister, Theresa May faced ‘mayhem’ in the recent Britain Exiting ‘BREXIT’ the European Union, yet Theresa May remained composed even at the face of an embarrassed resignations of numerous secretaries from her cabinet. She was neither resorted to name callings of Labour Party nor her Conservatives party members. The press has a smooth ‘Questions Authority’ with Prime Minister Theresa May. A composed Prime Minister, Theresa May was neither ‘rash, raw nor rude in answering ‘questions’, same goes with German Chancellor Angela Merkel when her Christian Democratic Union [CDU] party lost in the Bavaria State elections.
In the build up to the US mid-term elections that took place on November 6th, 2018, President Donald Trump was calling Democrats names. He set an unprecedented campaign of calumny in US elections history. Yet, Republican lost hold of the US House of Representatives and also winning some states. During President George Bush Jnr. visit to Iraq [in the heat of US led coalition war in Iraq], during one his press briefing in Baghdad, an Iraqi Journalist removed one of his shoe and threw it at President George Bush’s face. The journalist was later subdued and whisked away from the hall. It couldn’t have happened during President Donald Trump, he would have order the Iraqi journalist be summarily executed.

How far will Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman [MbS] goes from here? When will Mohammed bin Salman [MbS] brother, Khalid Salman, Saudi Arabia Ambassador to US give evidence? What about the part played by The Saudi Arabia Consul-General in Istanbul and his sudden departure from Istanbul?
Despite Saudi Arabia changing it’s narratives several times as regards it’s complicity in the gruesome killing of Jamal Khashoggi, Turkish press always come in handy to dispute Saudi Arabia’s claims! Turkish press continued to release evidences [both audio recordings, CCTV footage’s and photos] related to the killing of Saudi Arabia born Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman critic [MbS] and Washington Post Columnist, Jamal Khashoggi.
