Trump calls media ‘enemy of the American people’

President fires off tweet against New York Times, NBC, ABC, CBS and CNN, deletes comment calling outlets ‘sick’

ed note–let’s see a show of hands here please amongst the ‘Trump is owned by the Jews brigade’ (TIOBTJB ) who think that Trump doesn’t know that the mainstream media in America and the West is owned/controlled lock, stock, and barrel by Jewish interests out to bring about a Judaic agenda.

Hmmmm…

Well then, let’s see another show of hands here from the TIOBTJB who believe that the JMSM isn’t doing everything they can to destroy his presidency, and that all the conflict and consternation between the new president and the ‘public relations’ arm of Judea, Inc is all ‘an act’….

Hmmmmmmm…

Ok then, we’ll go in the opposite direction–

Let’s see a show of hands here from some of the more rational thinkers in the sane world who are not trapped into dogmatic/emotional/ideological positions who think that there really is a war going on between Trump and Judea, Inc and that many of the things he has said and done during the election season and now in the 1st month of his presidency was a ‘necessary evil’ in order to neutralize the black magic that Judea, Inc employs on a daily basis in motivating/moving huge masses of people in directions that they need?

Donald Trump ratcheted up his attacks on the media Friday, describing the press as “the enemy of the American people!” in a tweet.

Shortly after landing at his holiday home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida — where he is spending a third consecutive weekend — the president lashed out in 140 characters.

Trump had tweeted an earlier post which targeted the New York Times, CNN, NBC “and many more” media — and ended with the exclamation “SICK!”

But he swiftly deleted that missive before reposting the definitive version — adding two more “enemies” to his blacklist.

Many US presidents have criticized the press, but Trump’s language has more closely echoed criticism leveled by authoritarian leaders around the world.

Trump, who regularly accuses the media of overstating his setbacks, also has accused journalists of failing to show sufficient respect for his accomplishments — including in their coverage of a rambling press conference on Thursday in which he voiced a litany of grievances against their industry.

Many reporters were taken aback by the ranting press conference described by some as bizarre, but Trump echoed the words of praise he got from one right-wing commentator and insisted that Thursday’s outing had been a bravura performance.

“‘One of the most effective press conferences I’ve ever seen!’ says Rush Limbaugh. Many agree. Yet FAKE MEDIA calls it differently! Dishonest,” Trump wrote on Twitter about an hour after the earlier tweet.

The 70-year-old built his campaign on criticizing the press as biased.

On Thursday, he launched a long diatribe at a grievance-filled news conference, in which he blamed the media for his one-month-old administration’s problems.

In four tumultuous weeks, Trump has seen his national security advisor ousted, a cabinet nominee withdraw, a centerpiece immigration policy fail in the courts and a tidal wave of damaging leaks.
