I think it will happen in the first 6 months and it will likely be someone high profile.

Most of them are traitors.

OK then how about Rachel Maddow? I think that he and Toddy will make fabulous cellmates at the Trump Center for Behavioral Modification and Sexual Reorientation.

Curious about the down votes. Do you guys think he wont call a journalist a traitor in the next six months? Im just making an observation based on his attitude towards the press. They deserve to be called out on bullshite but I think Trump will push back too hard at some point and I think it will be sooner rather than later.

Lawrence O Donnel on MSNBC already called Trump a "traitor".

All the more reason why Trump would strike back and accuse him or someone else in the media of treason or being a traitor. He like tit for tat and he remembers people that cross him forever.

Too far?

Can you not comprehend what they are attempting to do to the future POTUS? Is there no respect for the office left that it's now ok to just make shite up to destroy the president because he threatens the cesspool of unelected beurocrats and establishment lackeys that are killing our great nation? An openly adversarial media and a large swath of the IC trying to delegitimize the commander in chief? We've seen calls for assasination and almost daily calls for impeachment and he hasn't yet been inaugurated. Dems and GOPe leaders paid foreign spies to dig up dirt on him as they attempted to rig the presidential election in their favor.

Why is Trump the only one being asked to behave here?

Well he is the most unpopular president-elect in history. What'd you expect?

It won't be long because what Trump will find out very quickly is that he can't be Mussolini here. People won't respect him. He can't shout at people to make them respect him. He will start threatening people and stamping his feet and threatening arrest, and it won't work. They just won't kiss his feet. It will be extremely frustrating for him because he expects all people to be afraid of what he can do.

The strong arm tactics of a billionaire against painters and tradesmen simply won't work.

Then we will see the true comparison to Obama. The right wing press continued to say endless false negative things, and some true negative things, but they could still attend his press conferences and he would still take their questions. He ignored most of it, made jokes about some of it, but didn't try to shout them down, to silence them.

Let's see if Trump exhibits 10% of the class that we saw over the last 8 years. He's off to a piss poor start.

Tboy, why do I get the feeling that your handle is ironic considering your a femme?

Are you suggesting that the Obamas and the Clintons exhibit "class"?

I got my math schoolin' a very long time ago but isn't 10% of 0 still 0?

You're setting a pretty low bar.

If Trump calls a Journalist a traitor, TT...then like with Hillary's costly "deplorables" comment, by extension it goes to all who support said Journalist's ideology. That would be a lot of people who Trump will likely win over in the near future.

That's why he won't go there. Far better to stay above the fray and just daily slam the Network for employing a biased Reporter with a (opposition) political agenda.

Looking forward to seeing that. I think it will be sooner than 6 months.
