Samantha Bee picked apart President Donald Trump s ongoing attacks on the media on Wednesday.

And the host of Full Frontal concluded with some bad news.

The scariest part, she said, is that Trump is winning.

No ones been able to stop his attacks, so we just go about our lives while they run constantly in the background like white noise, which, of course, is Trumps preferred color of noise, said Bee.

When Trump undermines the free press, hes not just attacking journalists right to do their jobs, she noted. Hes attacking your right to know whats going on in the world. We need to resist the complacency that normalizes Trumps media-bashing and stand up for the people who bring us the news so we can look forward to the day they bring us news worth celebrating.

Bee elsewhere in her monologue described Trump as an unlovable loser, an emotional weakling whose entire self-worth is based on how successful he looks to others and a bottomless pit of neediness who demands constant validation from the media.
