“These media jackals accused him of rape and being KKK.”

And that is for starters. The few around here that are bashing Trump for his treatment of the press need to wake up to see who has been complicit with the Dems in ruining this country over the past 50 years.

Freedom of the press is not synonymous with abuse by the press. When they undermine national security and foment the type of violence that gets LEO all over America killed, it is time to pull rank on their sorry asses.

Liberals have a monopoly on freedom of speech, at least the sort of speech that matters in modern America. Nowadays, the vast majority of the public gets its information from the Network News corporations.

These network news services represent the only means by which a message can get out to the public. The very point of "freedom of speech" as guaranteed in our constitution is to allow dissenting voices to all be heard by the public so that the public can weigh them and come to a decision as to which side they agree with.

Liberals, by taking over complete control of all broadcast systems, have effectively created a monopoly on the speech that matters, and they use this monopoly to censor conservative opinion or news stories that do not support their political preferences.

They have effectively short circuited the process for which "Freedom of Speech" and "Freedom of the Press" was created. Technology has allowed them to undermine the system and prevent it from working as originally intended.
