Obviously, Donald Trump wants to be an autocrat, a dictator. He continually harps on the media and ignores the Constitution’s First Amendment which guarantees freedom of the press. He has had this theme throughout his campaign and presidency. Why?
He told the audience at the VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) annual conference to ignore what they see and hear. Just listen to POTUS. Well, Trump has wanted his big beautiful wall, and if he can get people to not believe the news, including Fox, maybe then he can get it. In a morning rant, Trump tweeted:
‘With all of the success that our Country is having, including the just released jobs numbers which are off the charts, the Fake News & totally dishonest Media concerning me and my presidency has never been worse. Many have become crazed lunatics who have given up on the TRUTH!…’
He continued, calling the media “crazed lunatics,” although he might have been projecting:
‘With all of the success that our Country is having, including the just released jobs numbers which are off the charts, the Fake News & totally dishonest Media concerning me and my presidency has never been worse. Many have become crazed lunatics who have given up on the TRUTH!…’
All dictators call their press “the Enemy of the People!” Trump is no exception:
‘….The Fake News Media in our Country is the real Opposition Party. It is truly the Enemy of the People! We must bring honesty back to journalism and reporting!’
All the other presidents have had their libraries, but the man currently sitting in the Oval Office does not or cannot read, so he wants his memorial to be that “big beautiful wall:
‘With all of the success that our Country is having, including the just released jobs numbers which are off the charts, the Fake News & totally dishonest Media concerning me and my presidency has never been worse. Many have become crazed lunatics who have given up on the TRUTH!…’
