Monday on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show,” MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell addressed how President Donald Trump treats the press as “the enemy of the people.”

Mitchell likened Trump to Joseph Stalin, saying what the president attacking fake news is “very dangerous.”

“This is something that we first heard from Joseph Stalin. This is very dangerous. It undercuts democracy,” Mitchell said. “And for years and years, I’ve covered the State Department where we’ve tried to teach and help, advocate with new democracies how to train journalists and how we do journalism.”

Hypocrite.

If the press does not like being called “Enemy of the People”, maybe they should try, you know, not being the enemy of the people.

Report FACTS. Not OPINION as FACT.

[VanDeKoik]

He’s Hitler.

He’s Stalin.

Um.....ok.

[thesharkboy]

I thought he was Hitler. I’m so confused.

Andrea, darling, if Trump were “just like Josef Stalin”, then you would be in a gulag or dead just for voicing your opinion.

[Kickass Conservative]

Stalin controlled the Media in the Soviet Union.

The Democrats control the Media in the United States.

[WKUHilltopper]

Mitchell=scum, hypocrite, seditious traitor to the Republic.

[MtnClimber]

It always amuses me when leftists compare a conservative to a leftist leader. Do they really intend to say Trump is just like me?

[Little Ray]

Trump is like Stalin?

So, how many lying bastard reporters, anchors, or editors have shot or shipped off to the Gulag?

[Flavious_Maximus]

They are not journalists, they are partisan hacks. Just another wing of the rat party and should be dealt with the same way as Carville and Begalla.

Hey, Andrea, at least be accurate when characterizing what the president is attacking. He is attacking leftist shills and propagandists, like you.

[HamiltonJay]

Trump has not “attacked” the press!! He’s criticized them and largely rightly so!

Seriously, has Trump don’t anything to limit freedom of the Press? Stop your whining! No reporters are in jail. No one has threatened to silence you... You are being criticized and the belief that people, even the president, shouldn’t criticize you, just because you claim to be “journalists” is ludicrous.

[Little Ray]

Trying to drive a wedge into conservatives.
We used to being called Hitler, but we don’t like Stalin and have not been called Stalin much.
So they’re just trying for more impact!

[dfwgator]

Oh, so NOW Stalin is a bad guy to the Left.

[CodeToad]

She’s a communist propagandist. All she does is spread communism...and her legs.

“And for years and years, I’ve covered the State Department where we’ve tried to teach and help, advocate with new democracies how to train journalists and how we do journalism.”

I think I see where the problem is coming from.

[OttawaFreeper]

Yes, didn’t Ed Asner (Lou Grant) call Stalin “misunderstood”?

[dfwgator]

Sometimes a pic doesn’t need any words.
