He isn’t President yet. But he will be and Megyn is not acceptable.

Wait a minute, please think about this for a second.

Whatever side you fall on in the political race, it’s Very Very Bad for any politician or President to single out any one reporter or groups of reporters for exclusion. That’s as bad as Obama shutting out the Fox News people because of his obsession with them.

If you are President or running for the Presidency, you should be able to deal with ANY reporter, in an adult manner, whichever side of the aisle you are on. Yes, even if the reporter is a less-than-stellar journalist, and may have biases.

To demand the removal of a reporter because you don’t think they are ‘nice’ to you is ridiculous. Goes completely against Freedom of the Press. It’s not Freedom of the Press for Reporters Who We Like and Write Complementary Copy.

There’s a reason the Founders included Freedom of the Press in the Constitution!
