Freedom of speech!Freedom of speech!Freedom of speech!Freedom of speech! That’s what you’ll hear them screaming if he does. Not sure how that’s censorship. I know we distance ourselves from people who lie and spread falsehoods and create drama where none is required. So, what’s the problem?

The press and meida can have all the freedom of speech they desire. They can shout out from the bowels of the NYC “Bowery” while they clean dirty car windshields for 25 cents a wipe!!! They will love it there...as they will be soon joined by Bill & Hilllary Clinton & Barack Hussein Obama....and hs windshield cleaning partner, Bowe Bergdahl!!! I wish them all...well!!!

They need to hear “lible - lible - libel” right back and be prosecuted and jailed when they are CAUGHT in a lie. I would think a better move than the one being offered is to disallow them for a 30-60 day period depending upon the egregiousness of the libel.

They still have freedom of speech. They can still print any lies they want. They just can’t occupy the White House any more. I hope he does kick them out. Being dishonest should have consequences.

I have read the same advice in the New Testament...2 Timothy 3:5.

In addition to freedom of speech argument they will also pull out the “American people have the right to know” what their president is doing and where their president is. They tried this when Trump took a helicopter to his golf course leaving the press corp behind. I agree that the press has become a party unto itself in collusion with another party. I also agree that the amount of press has increased in which 49 seats have simply become too small to accomodate all the news organizations that have cropped up due to the progress of the internet.

And only hold press meeting when ever he wants to. Not every day. Most of the time the press just wants to be on TV. Stupid system.

The real question is, are the snowflakes “literally shaking?”

Certainly the press is entitled to free speech. I wouldn’t want it to be any other way. There is also the freedom to tune the press out.
