When was last time we had a President with the balls to take on the press? Probably Reagan I was born the year he started his 2nd term so.Question for the righties: When was the last time you remembered a POTUS banning cameras and/or audio from a daily press briefing? And why?
Trump's paranoia is fascinating to watch unfold. This initial blush at blocking the public from its right to know is a test. And of course the Trumpies are worshipping their god and thinking it's funny.
It shows how little you know. Reagan did not take on the media. He was not afraid to participate in the White House Correspondents Dinner. He had the ability to talk to the American people directly. He never used the language that Trump uses and never called the media a enemy.
The fact is this is a attack on the American people not the media. The fact is that Americans may have issues with how the media covers Trump but they trust the media more than they trust Trump on important issues.
