> Clearly the administration sees Google through the lens of an adversary, which is astonishing enough.
How is that astonishing? Google has made it more than clear that they will use their vast resources to help Trump's opponents. It's almost a meme at this point that if you want to search for something politically incorrect - or anything that doesn't align with the left - you need to use Bing or DDG.
The link is not to Reddit, it's to their new site. You'd think people could decide for themselves if they want to go to the actual forum, but Google doesn't think you're bright enough to make your own choice, apparently.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. All you example proves is that Google and Bing follow different metrics for relevance -- Google's being more relevant for someone looking for the former subreddit that was widely discussed in other media outlets, Bing's being more relevant for someone looking for the current incarnation i.e. dedicated Trump supporters. The idea that there is some conspiracy within Google to promote Trump's opponents needs more proof than that.
