President Trump is banning CNN, Politico, and MSNow from the White House, citing Fake News. The next step might be to follow Woodrow Wilson and throw your opponents into jail; not that Trump hasn’t tried that already, but not yet on current news reporters.
Trump made this announcement on Truth Social:
“I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW… and Politico… from the White House as a result of their constant ‘reporting’ FAKE NEWS!”
Nice to see that Trump is following the proud tradition of not only President WIlson who jailed his oppoents, but also President John Adams. It was President Thomas Jefferson who restored Constitutional freedoms that Adams had curtailed. Warren G. Harding took over for Wilson, and matters normalized somewhat with the end of WWI.
Who is going to curtail Trump and his mania for “my word or the highway”? President AOC? Haha, she’d ban Fox, OAN, and Newsmax.
Welcome to 1984 three decades late.
