I've heard a lot of talk from our awesome leader lately that appear to make it sound like he's in favor of curtailing or curbing the free speech rights of our media since they are saying things about him that he doesn't like hearing. Granted, there's no evidence, clear or muddy, that any of it is untrue, but he wants to curtail it and/or try to censor it anyway. He even suggested trying to suspend the license (LOL!) of MSNBC.
And yet, where is the moral outrage from the constitutional conservatives? The president wants to defy our most fundamental right and they are silent?
I've come to conclude that in the eyes of the 35% of the public that supports him, he is absolutely bulletproof. He could say and/or do anything, and his supporters would either defend him, or be silent and accept it. I honestly believe that if there was a run on gun purchases by Black Lives Matter folks, he would try enacting some kind of order that would stop them from having the right to buy guns, and his gun-nut supporters would be OK WITH THIS. They would believe he's doing the right thing.
I never thought I'd be witness to such witlessness in my life and in this country. But here we are....
