nemy: Donald Trump.

The networks want Trump to ease restrictions placed on reporterscovering his events, the Washington Post reports.

Over the past few weeks, stories have surfaced that indicate a particularly volatile relationship between Trump and the media. At a rally last Tuesday, a Trump aide threatened to revoke Noah Gray‘s media credentials after the CNN reporter briefly left the designated press area to cover a #BlackLivesMatter protester. The aide told Noah to “get back in the pen” or risk being “f*cking blacklisted.”

At a rally Friday, Trump barred members of the press from covering the event, including reporters from BuzzFeed, The Huffington Post, and Univision. The Trump campaign has banned publications that have strongly criticized the candidate in the past, thus landing the outlets and reporters in “the doghouse” (a term used by campaign manager Corey Lewandowski).

Trump’s tricky relationship with the press is not a new phenomenon: this past August, the Republican candidate removed Univision reporter Jorge Ramos from a press conference, telling Ramos to “go back to Univision.”

The GOPe would rather see Hillary Clinton win than Trump. That’s exactly what’s going to happen if they get their way. Trump will run as a third party and the RINO bastards will have their President Hillary Clinton. Then Karl Rove and crowd will rejoice because nothing will change in Washington DC. Business as usual for the cronies. It’s either an establishment republican liberal or a liberal democrat. They could care less, as long as their gravy train continues.

Fine. Hey MSM, band together well, have lots of cadre meetings and please plan to take out Trump. The American people are on to you and your cabal.

You are an arrogant group of maybe 10,000 people that live in a bubble, take your orders from the White House and do whatever you think is cool, will get street cred from your friends and get invited to the cocktail parties.

We don't respect you, know your views are socialist, so therefore you lie and do whatever Alinsky technique works to get your desired result. You do remember "the end justifies the means" and Alinsky rules 4, 5, 8 and 12 don't you? If not, you better bone up before your next cadre meeting. I know, you desperately want to go to the White House Press Corps dinner and other wasters of taxpayer money.

Many of us took an oath to defend American against domestic enemies. You are now officially a domestic enemy. Whatever you say, we side with the opposite. Whomever you attack, we defend. The more you try your tricks on Trump, the higher his pol numbers will go. So go ahead, crucify him and we'll talk with you on November 9, 2016 and see who was right.

Oh, and BTW, get over yourselves. You don't own intelligence. You may be bright in your bubble, but the brilliant people are in the private sector. Wanna' debate Stephie? Give millions of us a call. We'd gladly come on your show and go toe to toe.

Anderson Cooper might like to be waterboarded. I am sure Megyn Kelly would like it.

If it comes down to the entire MSM against Trump I wouldn't be too quick to bet on the MSM.

In every speech he has called out the press and says they are SCUM and that 70% of the media are liars and simply rotten to the core.

Trump has literally set the stage for this and they have taken the bait.

A man who has managed to stop in the upper level of ratings on Network TV for 12 years knows what he's doing and WHY he's doing it.

I predict that the MSM is about to catapult Trump right into the White House next November, and from where I'm standing he is playing them better than anyone since Reagan.

They need to stay in the pen so they can’t go a-gardening in the crowd.

I watch Trump on the youtube almost every day.

Haven’t watched MSM news in forever.

I just look at FR, daily mail, RT and a few assorted blogs.

Screw the MSM. They censor what they don’t shape and control.

Their newscasts come out of a cookbook.

I was watching one night and all the local news covered the same stories in the same order with the same tone.

First story-bleeding lead, then plight of the gays,plight of the illegal immigrant, some fluffer on a dem, the feel good story of the day, sports with the daily steroid abuse update.

It went like that, exactly like that for a week and then I quit watching.

The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat.
