It is not “same old, same old.” It is completely new, and unprecedented in my life: Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, W., Obama, Trump. Completely new and completely unbecoming. Enemy of the people!

You apparently didn't pay attention from 2009-2017. Obama even threw Fox News out of the White House Press Pool because he didn't like what they said about him, until CNN and some other major networks threatened to walk. The Bushes and Clinton also whined about the media. This is not a new development. You might say that this is a historical issue.

This is like saying 10 and 1 are both numbers so they are the same thing. Do you know the difference between 10 and 1?

You are just stupid, so you think that. You can't even argue correctly on a webpage made for discussing things! LOL! You are why people think Trump supporters are just dupes. Everything that contradicts his narrow, ignorant worldview angers people like you: The media, scientists, the FBI, the f'n internet! ?It's really too funny!

Do you know the difference between 10 and 1? 0=nothing, zilch, nada so if you add it to 1 you still have 1. 10 and 1 are the same, and there's no refuting that.

C’mon, man. He did. He spied on them and got busted. He also kicked out a bunch of reporters from events. Yet, crickets. 3

This media has declared WAR on Trump since day one, and they published slanderous, libelous, and outright FABRICATED stories since day one without repercussion. Well, they chose to sow the wind. They need to reap the whirlwind. Bro, here’s the thing — when you’re president you need to carry yourself with dignity and you need to be above getting into arguments with news outlets. Refuting a erroneous report through respected channels is one thing — what Trump is doing is just pathetic. 31 minutes ago, Koko78 said: You apparently didn't pay attention from 2009-2017.

I’m sorry Koko, I was deployed for most of W., but I gotta say to me, I’ve never seen this before from a president. 1 minute ago, Deranged Rhino said: He did. He spied on them and got busted.

But it let’s just say on the size and scope that Trump is feuding with the media — I’ve never seen it from a president before.

The_Dude Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 ....I wonder if Nixon was like this as the end drew near on his presidency.

In the build up to the Iran deal, yes, Obama had reporters under surveillance and tried to head off any negative stories about Iran or the mullahs in order to "build an echo chamber" (Ben Rhodes' plan) to convince the American people the deal was a good one. Youve never seen this from a president before because you've never seen a president in office who wasn't part of the system.

Everything that contradicts his narrow, ignorant worldview angers people like you: The media, scientists, the FBI, the f'n internet! ?It's really too funny! Let me ask you a question. Gee I've not done this in awhile and not sure why I'm doing it again but here goes. Do you think the "Trump supporters" are more critical of Trump than supporters of any other President? !@#$ it let me answer that for you. People here and people I talk to all the time who "support" Trump (and I use the support word VERY loosely) are more critical of him than any Presidential supporters in my lifetime and that's a LONG time. Most of us call him all sorts of names and roll our eyes at him all the time but realize that we are better off than the alternative. So while people gobbled Obama's knob incessantly most Trump "supporters" understand the dude has major flaws but are happy in the direction the country is going. Go ahead take a poll. Get your brainless head out of the sand. 3
