The Hill
What the coverage shows
The Hill and The Independent both foreground Trump’s response to Obama’s Cheesecake Factory comparison, while Breaking Points frames it as Trump “panicking” as Obama “rips” him. CNBC is split: one piece is about Trump’s broader political coalition weakening, and another is the only outlet here to bring in Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent dining at Cheesecake Factory and using that as a talking point.
