His goal is laying the groundwork for when him and his administration go after the press and attempt to silence any and all criticism of him. This is a lot more than just bullying and intimidation. He’s doing this for a reason and that reason is pretty fucking scary.

Right? Like, okay Obama, probably time to use Loretta Lynch to indict his ass on something and pretty much just tell the Electoral College in a threatening way “Do it, I dare you.”

You know what? They totally deserved it, because they’re accomplices and enablers of all this bullying and intimidation...

Ya, we need something at this point like an 11th Estate. Real journalists rolled over and played nice starting with Reagan and ratings. They haven’t changed since. There are no more Edward R. Murrows out there. And even if there were, no one would listen.

His goal is intimidation.

Brian Stelter has been saying this since the election and has been reporting on Trump’s media intimidation.

Right? Like he’s gotta realize by now that any bad press he gets just fuels his support from the fucking cretins that helped get him elected (but also, importantly, it exposes his disgustingness and ignites action in those who oppose him).

One would HOPE that the main stream media would finally get angry enough to do their damn jobs and go hard after Trump for his scandals and his corruption, which is only going to get worse once he is sworn in.

May he rote in hell. Can we keep Obama? Or make HRC kick him out???

He is starting to intimidate them by denying the press pool access to him. This meeting is to further intimidate the media to bend to his will. He doesnt want the media to criticize his actions. This is a fucking call to arms for any and everyone who respects free press. This is a direct threat.

I have been tweeting support to my favorite journalists because I want them to know how valuable their work is. Trump is gunning to censor the media and dissent. I will continue my Twitter escapades, which also include trolling Trump supporters and Nazi sympathizers, so that they dont feel discouraged. Also, one of…

My maternal grandparents were Dutch immigrants, who moved to Canada post WWII, and I’m glad they don’t have to see this, either. My Oma was very political (my mother is always comparing me to her, saying that Oma’s strong politics skipped a generation, over to me), and I don’t know whether she’d break down and cry, or…

warning everyone about this for the last decade, and literally nobody listened

So the Trump team has surpassed fascism, because we can add sexual violence to their list. :/

I got a big kick out of this:

Some people think it’s cool to not pay attention in school. Anti-intellectualism has always been popular, but it’s becoming worse now with Fuckface von Clownstick. Others went to crap schools and/or are dumb

I think you are very right about this. For the record however, while I absolutely know about the racist, white-supremacist leanings of some in the US I too was caught with my pants down at how fucking deep it actually is. I guess what I am saying is that I missed the depths of both (which spring from the same well.).

These people would still fail to see the equivalency if Trump himself has a swastika tattooed on his forehead. “he’s just speaking his mind,” they’d say. “Nazis? How dare you!” they’d say.

What’s weird is that she’s a minority. Does she think these people won’t purge her too?

The alternative to “right” is Wrong. And doesn’t this dumb bitch realize she’d be on the trains?
