They can’t can’t stand that a guy like Trump beat them.

Reads to me as if they are threatening the President-elect, and deserve a visit from whomever investigates these threats.

I’d like to see them (the press) publicly detail their expectations as well as the potential repercussions if those demands continue to be ignored.

This is too important, and the Trump campaign learned all the wrong lessons during the campaign when they faced no penalty for blacklisting reporters.”

Oh noes, the dreaded double-dog “potential repercussions” threat…. What’s the media going to do Tommy, stop reporting on Trump? Ignore Trump? LOLOL… that’s not exactly a threat. Tommy is so going to be riding his bicycle in slow circles in front of the White House…

Again, I don’t think the media understands. And they don’t understand so many things that I have to respond in more sentences than I would like. First, he had dinner with his family. That’s not news. Second, New Yorkers go out to eat a lot. Restaurants don’t want the press corps in their establishment. And whats up with breaking “long held tradition”. Thats like putting an apple on your head at a shooting range. They are bigging Trump to shoot it off. What makes anyone think “long Standing Tradition” is something that Trump will respect. Did they watch the election?

And the proposed retribution is laughable. The big five networks are not that big any more. They also aren’t going to report fairly now that Trump won the election. The press unloaded on Trump like a robber shooting superman. Their bullets had no affect. Trump is not so stupid as to think the press will be kind if he only behaves. And finally, Steve Bannon provides all the media access Trump needs. Breibart and Drudge will be happy to report any news the networks don’t find fit to print.

If the press corps wants to exist at all in the future they better be careful. Trump does not need them.

There is no law here. This is the press thinking they have power. Hard to figure out if they are bluffing or they really think they are still important.

Didn’t Obama ditch his press to play golf?

This time it's The Gipper...on steroids, armed to the teeth with a GOP House and Senate and commitment to Drain The Swamp.

Think of Trump encased in a suit of invisible reactive amour

His response is Non-PC, instantaneous, direct, focused and devastating.

Along with Trump's staff and org.

This is a war that will require titanium balls from our side. Political Correctness has been the Nuke of the Left. Like the MSM's cred, PC must be squashed like a bug.

Trump's staff's mettle is going to be challenged immediately by a virulent demo whose energy will be extremely high from the outset. It must be met with preparation and equal will and commitment. Anything less and the virulent Anarchist-Marxist class will be encouraged.

Trump and our Constitutional brethren in charge have got to stomp on their balls, crush them, than fully demoralize them. ASAP.

I hear Vietor auditioned for the role of Tarzan in the new Ape Man movie.

But he lost out b/c they couldn’t find a loin cloth small enough.
