The Elitist Media are predictable because their Trump derangement pushes them into predictable patterns of conduct which then manifests on the air and in real time. This predictability extends to media reactions to the announcement of a two-week ceasefire in Iran, as demonstrated by CNN’s Erin Burnett.
Watch as Burnett bemoans President Donald Trump not obliterating “a whole civilization” as proof evident of “Trump Always Chickens Out:”

ERIN BURNETT: And then, of course, Max, then you get to the practicality of, of, of people that will live in the moment. That's what the markets do. So the markets, of course, right now in futures trading, they have gone up because guess what, Trump has backed off. And there will be some who will call it, you know, “TACO: Trump Always Chickens Out” which is- is making way too light of it. But it is also a truth, which is that he makes giant threats that he does not follow through on. So it's one thing for everyone to say, well, nobody wanted him to do this, and it's another to say that the word of the President of the United States is now something that people do not think that they can take at his word. That they expect it just to be a quick trading opportunity every single time.
We sensed that this was going to be a narrative pathway once word got out earlier in the day of last-minute negotiations. Failed MSNBC host Keith Olbermann even tried to take us to task for daring to have a little foresight:
How'd this moronic tweet work out for you, Pinhead?

Olbermann's Trump Derangement ultimately proved us right.

Which leads us back to Burnett. These are the same people that spent most of Easter Sunday and Monday caterwauling over Trump’s profane social media post demanding the Hormuz Strait be opened, then going fully apoplectic when he threatened that Iran’s “civilization will die.” There is just no consistency.
And so it is that the same people speculating that Trump might nuke Iran pivot to mocking him over his use of diplomacy. Trump Derangement Syndrome is very real and is a detriment to the American people in such sensitive times as these.
