Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) rejected the idea expressed by President Trump that media were the enemies or the opposition on Thursday. I dont view you guys as the enemy. I view that you have a job to do, the leader of the Senate Republicans told reporters at a press conference.
I expect adversarial questions. And you rarely disappoint me. And I think its part of what make America function, McConnell said. We need a free and open press and we certainly have that and so thats my view.
Around the same time that McConnell made those comments, White House senior advisor Steve Bannon reiterated his view that the media represented the opposition. At the annual Conservative Political Action Conference held near Washington D.C. Bannon declared, I think if you look at the opposition party and how they portray the campaign, how they portrayed the transition and now theyre portraying the administration, its always wrong.

“I dont view you guys as the enemy. I view that you have a job to do,
“Please, pretty please, don’t hurt my widdle feelings. I don’t support Trump, honest!”
That is an easy one there. Mitch has always been against the American people.
That’s because you can’t see past your nose Mitch.
What a flaming idiot
They're not *really* going to like you no matter what you do.
Good grief.
What would it take Mitch?
It’s hard to think if a tactic they haven’t used short of shooting Conservatives.
No, he and the rest of the GOPe see Trump as the enemy.
Beware, President Trump and Steve Bannon! (Who seem completely suckered by Priebus...)
The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat. Not sure what that says about McConnell.
Blind and stupid, he is.
Blind and stupid, he is.
You are freaking blind!
long as the pubbies have horse crap like Mitch or Ryan as their leaders they will continue being dem lite.
Ass kisser!
Not your enemy, eh, Mitch?
Tell that to the local radio personality you tried to get fired because you didn’t like what he said.
I guess it all depends on whose ox is being gored.
He was elected in 1984 by 5,000 votes as a “John Sherman Cooper Republican”. So he said from the start just who he was.
I’m sorry, Mitch. If you cannot see the bias in the Main Stream Press, then you have been in the bubble for too long. The MSM is just shy of communism and they are almost single handed responsible for bringing this country to it’s knees through the promotion of their own ideology, through the promotion of those who hate Christian values and through the promotion of every kind of celebrity which promotes every level of violence and hedonism to our youth. They are the elite and, as such, they are no different in their passions than those who are undisciplined at the other end of the spectrum. They are also bored because they have everything and do not really have to work for anything. It is the middle class which does the scut work for the rest of the country and the press hates the middle and working class because they elected Trump. If Mitch thinks that the group who love the idea of grown men in little girl’s bathrooms are not the enemy of America, then I just do not know what to say.
If it’s a free and open press why are we subjected to unending one sided politicization and absolute falsehoods? ?
They are as free and open as North Korean press
With John Podesta joining the Washington Post as their Joseph Goebbels, one would think that Mitch the Twitch would get some cojones. But thats not Mitch’s style.
He much prefers to stab his enemies quietly in the back.Witness his silencing of Pocahontas in the Senate.
RINO turd sucks up to MSM, what a surprise!
And this is one of the MAJOR MAJOR things wrong with Mitch McConnell. That and he's a backstabber who should have lost the last Senate race.
