No one said conservatives want to silence the press.
Trump wants to silence it.
Really? When did Trump say that? Do you have some link to something? I think he only wants them to be honest, which they aren't. They lie, in case you haven't noticed. Such as, "Donald Trump removed the bust of MLK Jr. from the White House." That was a bald faced lie.
The "Muslim ban"? A bald faced lie.
He has never said they should be silenced. Not once. But he has criticized them for their lies and "fake news" and he is 100% right.
We are seeing more and more comparisons between Trump and Nixon. Ironically, it was the press that took down Nixon, so maybe that is what Trump fears.
Trump’s war on the media carries chilling echoes of Nixon
"Historians pointed out similarities between Mr. Trump and Richard M. Nixon, who in 1972 told his national security adviser, Henry A. Kissinger, “The press is the enemy.”
Mr. Bernstein said the president’s language “may be more insidious and dangerous than Richard Nixon’s attacks on the press.”
“But there is a similarity in trying to divide the country, and make the conduct of the press the issue, instead of the conduct of the president,” he said."
Oh, puhlease!!! You weren't even alive when Nixon was President! You have no idea what you're talking about. Trump is NOT doing anything wrong, and is certainly not wire tapping anyone. Oh, but wait ...Barack Obama is. It is his organization and his former administration that are like Nixon. I really think they have the White House bugged, especially since the recent revelation of one of his last minute E.O's concerning sharing information of private conversations with 16 different agencies. Obama is more like Nixon, and is working to subvert the U.S. government.
McCain attacked Trump supporters, calling them crazy, and Trump defended them against McCain during the campaign.. McCain is as jealous as Mitt Romney because Trump WON and he never ran from public office for anything.
How can any Trump supporter believe all of the whoppers he tells and yet accuse others of a "bald face lie"?
Very selective memory, I guess.
Trump does what he says unlike all the supposed politicians that were suppose to represent the American people. Trump is representing us and we appreciate him for keeping his word .
Which press outlets are still free so we can make sure they are protected. We do know for a fact CNN is not on that list.
