You're right, you found them. Two of those were written by PR consultants, all of them are opinion pieces, and one was written by a republican speechwriter. How about something written by a person on staff as a writer representing a journalistic organization? You know, like these:
No true Scotsman, eh? I didn't know the author mattered, but now it does. What's next? Written at the wrong time? Then at the wrong place? Not long enough? Too obscure? Sigh... I'm done with your treasure hunt.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I feel rather dirty and I need to go take a shower.
Not really no true Scotsman. Opinions are sent in by people to be published in a part of the newspaper that is not actually affiliated with the newspaper's staff, and Forbes is famous for selling article space to PR.
It's not changing the goalposts to point out that these are not journalists, and they themselves would not call themselves journalists.
Using the true scotsman example, this is more like you brought me an example of a welsh person in Scotland.

What? You asked “could you easily find 5 articles or clips that are genuinely supportive and praising Trump?”
You never mentioned whether they had to be written by journalists or not.

All I did was search for “positive Trump articles” in Google and this came up. I spent all of 5 minutes.
How about this, you find me 5 articles written by 5 “true” journalists at Breitbart and Foxnews supporting Hillary Clinton and I'll find a way to say you didn't do as I asked.
Trump literally, himself, says that the press is out to get him. You say he's wrong and it's really that they love him?
