Trump and Press

Trump will do everything he can to increase the already palpable mistrust people on the right have for main stream news orgs. Once nothing can be trusted there is no truth except what the Orange One proclaims. If there are no facts to be believed, then the message is controlled.

How can he control it.. Well he told us all in his 60 mins interview that he can use his 140 characters on twitter to circumvent the press. And he has Steve Bannon/Brietbart ready to roll out the propaganda. Never answering to anyone, but looking like he has.

Now is the time to support all of the mainstream papers. Pay for content you are reading. They are our last hope.

Trump does not need the mainstream press, we need the mainstream press.
