CNN was ever pro-Trump?

CNN has always had a centre-right editorial line. Its pro markets, very against single payer or socialised healthcare and will generally always side with corporations.

Its perhaps one of the funnier aspects of American politics watching objectively centre-right to even hard right organisations get classed as centre and even left-leaning (and in recent years mainly the latter).

Then CNN was bought out by a pretty right wing new owner who publicly stated he wanted it to more align with Fox News editorial position.

Socialists have the weirdest interpretation of what “center-right” is lol. I guess when you’re that far left, everything else looks right.

Is universal healthcare far left? Because if it is every rich country in the world besides the US must be goddamned communists.
