It really is. I'm trying so hard to not be terrified every minute. It's difficult.

He's done some really scary things in one month, but this is probably the worst so far. I don't know how anyone, on any side of the political spectrum, can defend this!

I hope this just strengthens their resolve to do all they can to get to the bottom of the Russia links, and take him down with it. They must be on to something or he wouldn't be freaking out like this.

 The similarities are glaring... it's just indescribable how unsettling this is for me. And instead of having one group as the target, Civil Rights are the target.

How can anyone defend this BS? I guess we're only supposed to protect the second amendment?

ITA!!!!!! This is insanity.
So I guess the freedom of speech and press only matters if you're reporting EXACTLY what HE wants you to say.  Absolutely sick and yes, we should ALL be afraid.
Dictator Trump. Welcome to the new America.

His fan base is probably getting off on this. Delusional brainwashed fools.

Re: White House blocks CNN, New York Times from press briefing hours
Regardless, this is another distraction. Esp given Preibus trying to strongarm the FBI. Why would he do that if it was a 'ruse' and 'fake' as Trump says?
I know Twitter is not reliable but there are a few reputable folks who are saying there is more Russia news breaking soon.

Re: White House blocks CNN, New York Times from press briefing hours
I don't agree with it at all but did anyone read the article to the bottom? It says the Obama administration did the same to Fox in 2009. So this is not the first time something like this has happened. And the other news outlets stood by Fox during that time and Fox said it will stand by the banned outlets now. I don't think that anything like this will happen again given how much coverage it's getting. I doubt anyone really gave it much thought in 2009.

I agree that with the strong backlash they've received we hopefully won't have to see this happen again.
However, I don't know that I would see the 2009 incident at the same level. It wasn't a press briefing with the press secretary. It was one network left out of one interview with someone who was not even part of the administration. And it did raise eyebrows and thankfully didn't happen again. Not saying it was right but I don't think it makes this less of a big deal. It also didn't come at a time when the press is being so openly attacked and treated as the opposition party.

It's scary and his idiot supporters are defending it as taking a stand against fake news.
