Donald Trump lives in an entirely different Universe than most of us….
In that place?
He simply makes up bull shit and expects most of the outsiders to believe it….
Now there are a LOT of Republicans out their in America that DO believe his dribble…
But?
Most Americans and apparently others around the world are disregarding his lies and misrepresentations….
So it comes as no surprise to some of us that like an authoritarian dictator?
Donald Trump wants to control what the masses hear ….
The media/press may not get it right all the time….
But America has lived witha ‘free’ media from day one….
We expect that same to be the norm long after Donald Trump exits the stage….
President Donald Trump complained Wednesday that his administration receives overwhelmingly negative coverage from network news outlets and floated the idea of pulling credentials from outlets whose reporting is deemed unfair by the White House.
Trump cited a study from the right-leaning Media Research Center that showed 91 percent of the coverage of Trump’s administration from network news outlets through the first four months of 2018 was negative. In a Wednesday morning tweet, Trump said the negative reporting about his administration is “fake.”
“The Fake News is working overtime. Just reported that, despite the tremendous success we are having with the economy & all things else, 91% of the Network News about me is negative (Fake),” the president wrote online. “Why do we work so hard in working with the media when it is corrupt? Take away credentials?”
Trump has complained often about the media and has on multiple occasions raised the possibility of taking retaliatory steps against the press, including canceling the daily press briefing and threatening to “open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money.”….
