Snickering at the poor FOX news reporter that they didn't have any suspensions.

(17,326 posts)If Trump is challenged and gets angry, there will be retribution. He's shown it over and over again. He's never one to take criticism in stride. No leadership qualities at all.

(3,072 posts)Politico and the Washington Post were fairly neutral on trump until he banned them from his press corps. Now they seem to be actively trying to destroy him. Probably not a good idea to have yet another massive media organization 100% against you.

(45,021 posts)Trump is clearly fearful of the press.

Proceed, Trumpster.

(14,857 posts)... a similar attitude toward a free press.
Many conservatives like to mention the confiscation of guns, but Hitler's main attack was on free speech.
Germans who spoke against the Nazis, in the press or in private, had a real fear of being reported and punished.
