Trump threatens to pull New York Times‘ credentials

Posted August 14, 2016 10:20 by Comments (17)


The Donald is having a hissy fit because of a story in the New York Times that hurt his feelings.

Trump has been blowing a gasket all weekend over a Times report that there’s basically a meltdown in the Trump campaign over his lack of discipline and refusal to say on message.

Last night, Trump declared, “I’m not running against Crooked Hillary Clinton. I’m running against the crooked media!… These are the most dishonest people!”

…Oh, and Trump also said that he might revoke the Times’ press credentials over the report.

    “Crooked” – “liars” – “rigged” – “cheaters” – “mean”
    Sounds like something one would say after they lost the election. I guess he realizes that after Nov 8th the media won’t be hanging on his every word and he’ll just go back to being a loud mouthed bankruptcy king.

    Donnie is busily honing his master list of which reporters and news agencies will be banned from the White House press corps. It would likely be simpler for him to decide which small handful of journalists he deems worthy.

    Of course, the whole issue is rather moot …

      One list I would rather not be on if I’m a reporter.

    COWARD trump, the gop candidate for POTUS who refuses to release his CROOKED TAX RETURNS should be addressing the problems of the nation instead of a personal attack on the GOP owned media.

    things like HTF are we going to throw our nation’s economic output into high gear when we’re bogged down with all the cheap TRUMP JUNK imports that are apt to ‘burn’ US (literally) when they burst into flames?

      It’s pricey…
      The good news is that the NYT along with the Wash Post and others, are going to drop their paywalls in a month or so.

        I get it on Sundays all the news from the week in one paper.

        • Mike August 14th, 2016 at 16:33

          With access to 3 computers I get 30 shots a month before I have to pay, I haven’t touched an actual newspaper or book in ages …Yea, I’m cheap…

    Yeah Donald…
    I’ts the “medias fault” for reporting the words that come out of your mouth…

    Fair enough. Trump, you remove the medium that identifies our first amendment, and the right of the people to participate, and we the people get to pull our taxpayer funded secret service protection.

    Hmmmm…if Trump thinks the media “… are the most dishonest people!” Why does he believe all that stuff they say about Hillary?

    This is the problem I have with the far right…they’re ability to accept the most illogical statements as fact simply because it feels true.
    Trump and his followers invalidate the press in one breath only to quote them in the next … I’d say it’s childish but even children understand the basics of logic … it’s a kind of mania…
