There's been an uptick in the re-reporting/commenting on the rape allegations we were hearing about during the campaign.

he would have been advised about the article before it was released. Timing is everything. I could be wrong, but it sure does smell delicious.

He's an eyelash away from calling in his followers to start shooting media members. I truly believe he is about to cross that line.

We have a maniac in the White House. He's a madman and he's going to do something truly horrible.

Guns...so like Hillary, the implications of what he is saying could be interpreted by lunatics, for whom it doesn't often take much to set them off....Plus, it only really takes one looney, but then he will incite the mob. I think he is wanting an incident to scare the press. He's trying to scare the press into submission.
This is exactly a coup...textbook

If he's allowed to stay in office he will start arresting the media en masse. We will see this by next year IMO, he must be removed now.

During the campaign season, he could always distract the media with some shiny object or other. Somehow it isn't working anymore...could it be that they are wise to him, and could it be that they have nothing to lose by reporting the serious stuff?

I was on the fence about this, but how can journalists go to WHCA dinner and toast somebody who has branded them an "enemy" of the state?
