>>>You're missing the WHOLE point -- it's not just this one incident of Trump 'insulting' a reporter. It's Trump attacks on the free press -- ya know the cornerstone of our democracy.

>Unless you insist that the whole free press is fake news and/or Jim Acosta, how is banning one reporter who's been misbehaving for months, an attack on the free press? Be specific with no paraphrases.

The White House is using a doctored video (from infowars) to justify taking away a civilians 1st Amendment rights and take his press pass. Asking a question that Trump does not like is not "misbehaving" it's doing your job. He also called a black woman reporter a racist shortly after that and the next day another female black reporter stupid. He called CNN and all the major news networks fake news and and enemy of the people. He does that at all these psychotic babbling rallies as well, even praising a congressman for body slamming a reporter. Tell me you see the problem with all of this please.


>I'd add that according to most politics, the status of the office of POTUS is also fairly important to democracy- so how come there's no faux outrage at the non-stop 24/7 attacks on POTUS? The same people acting aghast that Saint Acosta got sent to the naughty chair which they insist destroys the first amendment, are often the foulest destroyers of the stature that the office of POTUS once enjoyed. You do realize that the office of POTUS will never recover what you've torn down, don't you?
