depicts the brutal assassination of President Donald Trump, raising the question of whether the news reporting outlets should retain their credentials to cover and have access to President Trump. Delta Airlines and Bank of America have reportedly dropped their support for the play in the wake of public outrage over the play’s depiction of Trump’s assassination.

The play, a Shakespeare in the Park production of Julius Caesar, is set in the modern era with Trump as Caesar and his wife Melania as Calpurnia. Trump is murdered in a scene that has been describes as unusually graphic for the production of the play. The free play in New York City’s Central Park is paid for by corporate and foundation grants.

Absolutely. Sean Spicer should wait until all media clowns are seated, then call the NYT and CNN people up to the front and have them escorted out with the cameras rolling.

“If the level of civility in this country has fallen so low that so-called ‘impartial’ media outlets will sponsor and praise a theatrical performance that includes the assassination of the sitting president, those media outlets will no longer be welcomed on the white house grounds. this is not a temporary suspension, but a complete revocation of their credentials.”

And when he did all the other nets, papers, and services boycotted the press room in Fox’s support. The only guys in the press room if Trump bans tte Slimes will be Jim Hoft.whenever an idea like this is proposed the result is to make ut seem conservatives are every bit as totalitarian as the Left tries to paint them.

Publicly glorifying the assassination of the current U.S. president; i.e., supporting, indeed passively advocating a violent physical attack on the president - ought to qualify one as a domestic enemy.

IMHO. while the President’s libel lawsuits, regarding the damage caused by malicious fake “news” published by some “news” organizations, are proceeding, any “reporters” associated with those organizations should be banned.

Being the Left is so outraged and acting so despicably anyway, making them more outraged and feeling powerless is a great idea. And indeed this is a reasonable occasion to do so. Cry bullies need to feel that their despicable actions have consequences for them.

“Since the Secret Service just does not care, YES.”

Really. The SS has proven to be ineffective — perhaps even counterproductive. He should shut down the SS and bring in his own security team, deputize them (or whatever action is appropriate), and have them actually do something about the treats and seditious acts.

How did the corporates know ahead of time, what this theater company was going to do with the money?

The theater probably took a lump payment and ran with it.

Where there hints B4 hand that this was going to happen, so the corporates could have withdrawn their support. Jes wonderin’

Actually, I think the best thing to do is keep putting the Fake News Scum in the very back row seats PERMANENTLY in the White House press room. They should also strategically put the TALLEST FATTEST reporters right in front of them so they can’t see, and/or put them in seats where it’s very hard for them to see or hear anything LMAO.
