On NBC News the other night, anchorman Lester Holt reported that Donald Trump was pivoting to a more presidential image. In the measured tones that we commonly associate with “objectivity,” Holt said: “Trump’s comments appear to signal a more moderate shift...”When I heard that, I sighed to myself, “Right on schedule. The normalization of Trump has begun.”On MSNBC the other night, Chuck Todd equated Trump and Hillary Clinton, raising him up by lowering her down, bowing to the journalistic ritual of “balance.”
