House Democrats? @HouseDemocrats
To the party of Ronald Reagan: now is the time to stand up to President Trump's assault on our country's free press. ? #NotTheEnemy

It is ridiculous that he is banning major news outlets because he thinks they're mean to him.

Guy is a snowflake.

Trump is thin-skinned for sure, but to think this is the only reason he's giving them a hard time is disingenuous.

He's only getting negative spin from them and stuff like "literally hitler." I can't say I blame him for the shunning.

Why would I listen to Ronald Reagan? The press told me all throughout the 80s what a terrible president he was.

Trump has a history of this as old as he is. He takes zero criticism without lashing out. He never has.

It's ok to be thin skinned when you are just a faux wealthy reality tv star, but as President you have to understand that the press is there to criticize. They've done it to every president we've ever had.

The wrong words are emphasized..we no longer have an independent press like Reagan was talking about. It was proven that they take orders directly from the DNC

That's great....but the point in time when they got bought and paid for by the regressive left is when all that stopped mattering.

It wasn't a press conference. Thats why they call it a "gaggle". He can invite who he wants.

The party in power tends to always think the press is out to get them.

Didn't happen. RR was one of our most popular presidents. It wasn't until after that most of his negative news about his policies came out.

Let's not forget that CNN literally ran a breathless story about how if enough people were assassinated on inauguration day, Obama's people would stay in charge.

The Press has turned into the Democratic Party Propaganda Ministry, when they want to go back to being an HONEST press they will be treated like it, not till then.
