Do at least 1% of Liberals know that there is a difference between President Trump challenging what the press is saying when they lie versus telling them they can't continue to make up their lies and print/say them?

Of course they are dishonest and lying bunch of Commies. The Liberals won't talk about the things like CNN giving Hillary the questions to their Debates, and the fact that she took them and said nothing. They woun't tlak about the Phoney Town Halls she set up with actors. The Trump hating Media is the Enemy of the American People, as Trump says, and will pay the Price. .

The first thing a dictator does is take control of the communication and control the media. One could have the idea that someone powerful is buying up and trying to control the message. Some of these are false news. Our president has every right to call out those who are against what is lawful in our country. Our illegal alien enemies are marching in the streets and some of the news agencies are encouraging that. I call that treason. No one should be encouraging people to break the laws established through years of governing in our United States.

Demonstrating for what is right and lawful is one thing but demonstrating against law and order and against upholding our laws is another thing. Demonstrating by flying the flag of another country or other countries letting us know you are breaking our laws on purpose should be considered an act of treason and should be prosecuted as such. Illegals have been given too much understanding of their plight and are being encouraged to walk all over our citizens. They need to realize who they are and who we are and learn the difference. I have a right to be here. They don't.

Those are the corporate media or MSM. The press is much bigger...blogs, youtube, forums like this. I don't blame Trump for his criticisms. I look at MSM news and pretty much all I see is negative story after negative story after negative story about Trump. It's not hard to see that MSM is not reporting the news. They are putting out non stop Anti-Trump propaganda.

There are true journalists and thank goodness for them. To make such a ridiculous blanket statement must be because you are exposed to way too many blogs by right wing conspiracy theorists and paid shills. Without the free press and I mean the real press, we'd be really ****ed. Which other commercial enterprise is protected by the First Amendment? NONE!

And that is why we have a constitution. It prevents extremists trying to force their will on others. And if what you write is how you truly feel and believe, it is to prevent someone with views like yours from following through and taking action to make it a reality. Were our forefathers not very smart indeed, they understood the danger of one group trying to silence another just because they disagreed. Thus they enshrined the publics right to protest even when it greatly offends you or me...

I am glad to know that we have strong courts to stop mr trump dead in his tracks when he tried to breach the constitution with his illegal Muslim ban.....

I am glad to know our courts will protect my right to denounce trump, my right to go out in the streets and tell the world that we will not bow down, we will not be silent.

And the thing is no matter how much you hate it , there is nothing you can do about it. We have law on our side.

Oh dear. "Freak-out mode"? High school repartee much?

This level of profound discourse explains how this buffoon got elected in the first place.
