I SWEAR TO GOD, TRUMP COULD TELL HIS FOLLOWERS THAT CHILDREN MUST BE EXTERMINATED BECAUSE THEY ARE INHERANTLY EVIL AND THEY WOULD BACK HIM. I feel like I am living in a Sci-Fi B movie.

Did the NeverTrump reveal the press that has been murdered or thrown in jail....
OR was he taking his normal shots against the President of the United States that he dislikes?

There was a time I respected John McCain - that time is long past, when he goes to an International Forum to BASH a President he doesn't like #Sore-Loser

You mean the part where guns were taken away and there were riots to silence certain people?

Any press that delivers lies is the enemy of everybody. You can listen to many news stations all morning and hear lie after lie. I would like to know what THEIR motivation is? Why do they hate America and the constitution? I would like to know the percentage of news reporters who have ever read the constitution. I would expect about 95% of them have never bothered to read the constitution. Maybe Trump should ask that question the next time he has a news conference.

Trump's entrenched followers are buying it, but then they are already "all in" they are tied to Daddy Trump who does their thinking for them.


But the other 62% are literally laughing at Trump and buying Subscriptions to the NYT...

Lucky we have the judicial branch to protect our Press.

Do you think that criticizing the press is the same thing as shutting down the press?

A "Free Press" assumes a press who is independent on message, analysis, and any political bias. Our almost monolithic-in-ideology MSM is none of these things and thus fails to meet the category of "Free Press".

Criticizing a propaganda machine as an "enemy of the people" is not criticism of Free Press. It's a plea to regain it.
