Donald Trump said Monday that he is pulling The Washington Post’s credentials to cover his campaign events because he is upset with the newspaper’s coverage of his candidacy.
“Based on the incredibly inaccurate coverage and reporting of the record setting Trump campaign, we are hereby revoking the press credentials of the phony and dishonest Washington Post,” read a post on Trump’s Facebook page.

OMG! How is this Presidential? How can we expect Trump to handle Putin if he can’t handle the Washington Post? OMG!
That's lame. And you would be arguing that Trump is a "pushover" if he continued to allow the WP to cover him dishonestly.
George W. Bush never fought back against his critics and allowed them to define him. As a result, GWB is a laughingstock and he gets no respect. A man who allows himself to be bullied and doesn't defend himself gets no respect.
please tell us you forgot the Sarc tag...
I’m going to assume you forgot the sarcasm tag?
How can we expect Trump to handle Putin if he can’t handle the Washington Post?To these aged eyes, he's appearing to "handle" them quite well, thank you.
Wouldn’t it be letter to let the Post in and then use the reporter as a foil?
I hope you are a woman, if not you are one puny man concern troll.
So true, GWB took bad advice on that front, but from whom?
Trump’s already handling Putin just fine!
“Probably the same way many news papers do it.... they make it up.”
So true. They probably write the copy back at the office and have it done before anyone in the field gets to send anything in.
Shouldn’t affect their coverage. The field guys are just there in case the prez. (or candidate) gets shot (I remember them saying that when Reagan was shot).
They will continue to just make up stuff like they did when “covering” his campaign.
Does the Post really not use the term ‘Redskins’ anymore? It’s been so long since I read it that I hadn’t noticed; but all the people here still use it, which would make the Post look pretty silly ;-)
