And he called them fake and liars and dangerous and the most dishonest people all the time too. Check out his twitter feed, or 1.000 videos of him doing that. The context? They did not say nice things about him, usually.

Also, allies allegedly raised money to discredit journalists. There's a link for that.

As for confiscating congressmen's phones, there's a link for that too.

Allies were trying to raise money to discredit biased outlets which, like I said above, were anti-Trump.

They call Trump out? Let's discredit them! It's only fair.
But when they call Biden demented? More freedom to them! How dare anyone critizising them?

That's what the Biden administration is doing right now.

Thanks for playing.

Also, way to ignore that conditions weren't a FRACTION as bad as they are now.

Quote:Several Court holdings do firmly point to the conclusion that the press clause does not confer on the press the power to compel government to furnish information or otherwise give the press access to information that the public generally does not have.3 Nor, in many respects, is the press entitled to treatment different in kind from the treatment to which any other member of the public may be subjected.4 Generally applicable laws do not offend the First Amendment simply because their enforcement against the press has incidental effects.5 Yet, it does seem clear that, to some extent, the press, because of its role in disseminating news and information, is entitled to deference that others are not entitled to—that its role constitutionally entitles it to governmental sensitivity, to use Justice Stewart’s word.6 What difference such sensitivity might make in deciding cases is difficult to say.

If the gop wants to be a part of things, trying a coup whenever they lose is probably always going to make them out to be the bad guys.

Protecting the privacy?

First off, they broke the law and aren't even citizens, so they're not provided the same protection as a common citizen.

Second, you KNOW that it has nothing to do with privacy and everything to do with trying to keep Biden from looking like an animal.

But hey, whatever. I get your principles. Eg. the press needs to be free to say what you believe is true. If they do so freedom of the press applies. If they don't, then it's ok to smear them, threaten them and calling them enemy of the people.

Why did I even talk to you? That's really on me at that point. Sorry.

(03-31-2021, 03:46 PM)BFritz21 Wrote: Rebellion?!



People got emotional and stormed the Capitol building with no intentions of doing anything, which is obvious by the way they had no clue what to do once they got in there.

How is that a rebellion?

You really think it's a speech impediment that's the cause for all his problems?  

You think that's why he needs papers telling him what to say during press conferences and who to ask what?

To the second and third question: Yes.

Did you think trumps multiple instances of not being able to form coherent thoughts was normal? Like 1-2 minutes of just word? As someone who had two grandparents with dementia,that's part of what it looks like.

He can not post any quote where i accused him of robbing at risk people of the vaccine. And he can never post a quote where I accused him of saying he was paralyzed.
