Midknight Review -- new and revised: CNN complains about not getting to ask a question. Know what Obama did to Fox news ?

CNN complains about not getting to ask a question. Know what Obama did to Fox news ?

CNN complains about not getting to ask a question. Know what Obama did to Fox news ? In his first 36 press conferences, all structured, he refused Fox in 22 of those pressers. No a single question.

So, drop dead when it comes to "fair play." No such thing in Democrat/Progressive circles. No such thing.

Trump wants to move the press out of the White House... the press corps have had a room and office in the White House for 118 years. This is what an authoritarian despot does, demonize the press and promote 'his own' biased press (propaganda).

Trumps 1st press conference was a self serving carefully staged propaganda event with most of the people there his staff and supporters. He lied continuously and even staged a table full of props - blank folders that he boasted, "These papers are all just a piece of the many many companies that are being put into trust to be run by my two sons!” He wouldn't let the reporters open the folders which appeared to be all unlabeled and blank. He went on to spout lies and failed to answer repeated questions on whether his campaign was in contact with the Russians... but he did find time to boast about a $2 Billion dollar deal with some mideast sheik he was turning down, and that he thinks - just because he won, people don't care to see his tax returns. Even Fox News defended CNN's reporting - now confirmed by both Comey and Clapper, and condemned Trump for his bullying of the CNN reporter. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/01/11/fact-check-donald-trump-press-conference/96449610/

Now the Press has put Trump on notice:

Let's return the favor, shall we?

CLINTON: You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That’s why I believe if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the senate, that’s when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength. And you heard how the Republican members led by Mitch McConnell, the president really demeaned the confirmation process.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
