"The first thing that dictators do is shut down the free press" (McCain, enemies)

[Pine to Vine]

Go McCain: McCain: Dictators 'get started by suppressing free press' - CNNPolitics.com

[2nd trick op]

Why would conservatives want to silence a free press when the "progressives" and their far-Left allies make bigger fools of themselves with every passing moment???

You lost; you lost precisely because you alienated the people with enough commons sense to understand why your lies and fantasies won't and can't work. You can spew all you like, but the only people who are listening are those delusional enough, or naïve enough to swallow your swill. the rest of us have more meaningful things to do.

And I think most of us recognize why Trump's own fantasies won't work. It's the honest, working, beer-bar crowd who abandoned you, and no one can offer the "answer" a lot of them are looking for. And if Trump ever poses a serious threat to true Constitutional democracy, we'll stand against him just as firmly.

We just don't want do contaminate our ranks with the likes of you, and the rest of the hard-core dead weight. You can either wise up, or be prepared to stay on the sidelines and in the back benches -- permanently.

Trump tweeted yesterday that CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, and others are "enemies of the American people". He absolutely has dictatorial tendencies.

Last I checked those stations are still on the air and spewing their orchestrated nonsense.

Is this a topic about the violent leftists who try to stop Free Speech?

Absolutely, OP! And, trust me, most people realize this. It's only those trying to feel better about their naive votes who are pretending otherwise.

They have been waging a war on Conservatives for years. It's time for someone to fight back and call them out for their bad reporting.

Media ratings are all up. They love Trump ever since the Primaries.

No one said conservatives want to silence the press.

Trump wants to silence it.

He's forcing them to clean up their game.

Isn't this the same as you celebrating people who put pressure on Nordstrums to remove Trump brands?

[I love boots.]

Name one thing that has been shut down.
