President Tweets “Challenging NBC FCC License

Unfortunately I don't agree with everything Trump says, but I do support his agenda.

Which helps enable attacks on the first amendment like he is now engaged in.
 
Not hardly. :roll:

You support somebody who has announced his intent to attack the press by going after station licenses to silence them because he does not like their coverage of him. That is enabling him.

We'll see. You supported someone who wanted to block Fox News from the WH because they were the only right leaning media outlet. Talk about draconian censorship! Obama should have worn a brownshirt when he did that.

That move would not have taken FOX off the air like Trump wants to do with his comments about revoking licenses of NBC affiliates. That is a very very different thing.

Same thought pattern, yet you don't think Obama was wrong.

It is not at al the same. Unless you believe that a slap to the face and a chainsaw to the heart are the same because they are both technically assaults.

The difference is I've stated I disagree with Trump on this, but you haven't done the same with Obama. Dude, either state clearly you disagree with what Obama tried to do, or GTFO of my face. It's disgusting how you try to escape responsibility.
 
Meh, he will deny it, and then in a couple of days, he will come back and admit it.

The idiot is his own worst enemy. How the hell did we get here?

Oh yeah - I know. By the same people who made Duck Dynasty and the Kardashians and Honey Boo Boo famous.

No, by the Democratic Party not putting forward a better candidate.

Once again, Trump's Chumps can't support what he wants to do, so they find something that a Democrat did that is somehow a little bit similar. Well, of course they can't support Trump. No one can.

But, two wrongs still don't make a right.

I didn't support Trump, maybe if you actually bothered to read for once, you'd know that.

Then what was the point of bringing up the allegation that Obama banned Fox from the White House (Did that even really happen, I wonder) if not to excuse Trump and his war on the media?

Other than to be able to post a silly, childish, and irrelevant ad hominem, what was your point?

To demonstrate the hypocrisy of the Left.

Still doesn't justify people electing an idiot.

I wasn't a fan of hers. But that doesn't justify putting Trump into office. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.

But that's OK. We are at the brink of WW3 with NK. But Hillary's emails were so much more important.

I didn't vote for either, but it wasn't the emails that turned me off. It was ALL the crap that came with her. The emails were just the cherry on top.
 

Does asking a question fall under Presidential power? Yes. 100%.

And once again the snowflakes and haters fell for the raw meat he skillfully and most likely gleefully dangles before them. Every time he asks an interesting question like that, they jump on it as something equivalent to a papal bull. And the message boards and talking heads on the MSM talk about it as if he said he was actually going to do it. And for the President, mission accomplished. He succeeds once again in exposing them as the dishonest and/or incompetent shills that they are and reducing their influence with thinking people.

Just proves the fact that two people can look at, let’s use a painting, for example, and come away with an entirely different view of what was right in front of them!

Yes. And honest criticism of the President is fair game. But I am getting very frustrated with people so careless, ignorant, intellectually dishonest, and/or hateful that they twist, misrepresent, distort, or blatantly lie about what the President actually says in order to try to diminish, hurt, destroy him. That is hateful, unAmerican, and wrong. And I will continue to say so as long as I have the means to do so.

Carry on! The majority of the responses show that the rhetorical question was crystal clear, to them.

Those who treat a tweeted question as a statement of intent are not seeing anything in a crystal clear or any other comprehensive manner.
