How far back would you undo liberalism? No freedom of press? Freedom to free speech? Of religion? Civil rights? Womens rights?
Right to trial by a jury of your peers? Innocent until proven guilty? The right to elect your leaders instead of believing them divinely appointed?

All these are liberal ideas, along with many more most normal people would hate to lose.

So just how far back would folks like you undo liberal ideas?

Im betting it stops somewhere before YOUR rights start getting interfered with .

It's obvious the media wanted Hillary but who are they to dictate who becomes president. People saw through all their lies and distortions and voted for Trump. Now the media wants to act like a bunch of children because they are being called on their dishonesty. Many who understand this have already turned of the media and don't listen to them anyway.

If he had the balls he claims he does he would let any press in. He's afraid of being found out.

This is not alarming to me. Back when I was a kid, only one TV station aired Bozo's TV show.

Why is it that when a leftist tries to make a claim they go all drama queen.

You do realize that it is liberals that want to squelch free speech. Political Correctness is totalitarian mind control. What... do you think when you are controlled liberals would tell you?

Do you support the first ammendment ? The media is being banned for reporting on Trump's misrepresentations and outright lies.

Would you prefer a fascist govt that bans media that does cover the recommended stories ? Perhaps you should visit Russia or China or Saudi Arabia or Venezuela or now Turkey. Those are the type of countries that have banned critical media.

It is not about what the media wants it's about transparency. Meeting privately with certain members of the press more friendly to Trump is not transparent. Trump was elected to reduce the secrecy in Washington, not increase it.

What leftist are you referring to ? Are you not smart enough to grasp that people can be moderate to conservative and NOT feel the need to kiss Trumps azz every time he passes gas?

And can you show me where I said anything about PC, which I am on record here in CD as despising, including the trans nonsense?

I asked some specific questions about what rights brought to us via liberalism you would remove. Be adult enough to give some specific answers without all this unrelated BS.
