Almost want the whole Senate cleaned of republicans - except that that would mean impeachment.

The United States Senate.

The most corrupt institution in the history of the country.

And it’s not even close.

I dont much care for “the enemy of the people” either, so I dont care about this really. That said, to imply the President is against a Free Press is a strawman at best. Everyone is for a free press, its Fake News we reject.

The fake news cheered, championed, and foisted an enemy combatant on the American people—Barack Hussein Osama. A known ineligible marxist muslim America-hating faggot illegal alien.

We got fundamental transformation out of the deal...America on her deathbed. A bullet in the brain pan.

The time for the fakestream media to honor themselves will soon be at an end. They are the enemy of the people.

Unanimous leaves little room for any Senator to argue differently, which I am sure some now will. Rand, for one, every one of them really. And how about Lyn’ Ted, specifically, who just PUBLICLY begged for Trump’s help with his failing re-election? For those pimping for Lyn’ Ted and those few still pushing him at everyone opportunity, how do you explain this anti-Trump vote or his anticipated lies afterward to explain away the vote?

The more people that tell me the press is not the enemy, the more I can pretty much assume that the press is the enemy

How about a resolution to change the definition of ‘enemy’? More to the point.

They could change the meaning of ‘is’ for Bubba while they are at it.

“affirms that the press is not the enemy of the people”

That's nice and all, but PDJT NEVER said that the "press is the enemy of the people".

He said the FAKE NEWS is the enemy of the people.

(maybe quibbling - but I go the further step in saying, that yes, the press is indeed the enemy of the people)

Just look at Sessions for what 30+ years in the Senate will do to one’s work habits...if they even had any when they got in there.

Yep—Trump has been condemning “Fake News”, not the press in general.
