Joy Reid Thinks Trump's Criticism of Media Is a 'Violation of First Amendment'

How can I impeach thee? Let me count the ways....

Still reeling from the pain of the Mueller report's failure to deliver any additional indictments, Joy Reid this morning fantasized a list of possibly impeachable offenses.

The most hilarious, reflecting Reid's unfamiliarity with the Bill of Rights, was her claim that Trump's "attacking the media" could be grounds for impeachment. Reid said that while the criticism isn't a crime, "it's a violation of the First Amendment in a lot of ways."

Serious question: has Joy Reid ever read the First Amendment?

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

The scandal is that Reid is not just some anonymous Internet troll, but an on-screen employee of a major news network. Her ignorance is appalling. Maybe she should try basketball.

Hey, Joy, was it a violation of the First Amendment when Obama criticized Fox News and Rush Limbaugh?

These people have a Trump Fixation. . .pure and simple. They are jealous if him as well as his family. What is scary is to think that some actually sit and listen to these people in their diatribes. We are becoming a very sick society. . .full of “last days” stuff.

Of course she does, because she has no idea what the 1st Amendment is for.

I, an American, am required to Protect, Defend, and Support this ditz’s Freedom of Speech. It is truly clear to all.
However, after a number of readings of the United Stated Constitution, I find that NOWHERE am I additionally REQUIRED to actually LISTEN to the garbage spewing from her.
Speech itself requires TWO participants. One is the actual SPEAKER. The other is a LISTENER, although there is NO legal requirement that anyone listen.
The ultimate censorship is the “listener” shutting off his/her desire to listen. We humans come with an On/Off switch.

I guess they are violating the first amendment then by criticizing Fox.
