Donald Trump’s numerous offenses against the press and his attacks on the integrity of the American democracy during his presidency will have a long-lasting impact on society.

The 45th President of the United States of America accomplished the development of a certain lack of confidence in the media amongst the population by naming the press an enemy of the American people. Thus, he partially succeeded in delegitimizing the work of the press as fake news.
