Donald Trump issued an edict on his Facebook page Monday afternoon: The Washington Post will no longer be credentialed to cover his campaign. "Based on the incredibly inaccurate coverage and reporting of the record setting Trump campaign," Trump wrote, "we are hereby revoking the press credentials of the phony and dishonest Washington Post."
you are not the one to protect the first amendment. face it when you select statements that you dont like and delete it that is anti first amendment.That just goes to show what a hypocrite you really are.

They're not being banned from covering anything.
The WH always restricts access to the POTUS.
But the nutbag left can still report any lie that they want.
Need a hanky?
I think the Washing Post should be banned period.
Semper Fi
georgic, I don't believe that Semper Fi is quite in tune with shitcanning the US Constitution!

It is georgejc, by the way.
The WP has been a liberal generator of fake, misleading, dis-informational, misinformational news and commentary long before today. Even John Kennedy couldn't stand them. By the way, when was the last time you read the Constitution?
Semper, Semper, Semper Fi
It does protect the liar in the white house

OK, let's just get this in perspective. The first amendment guarantees you the right to speak your mind any time any where, at your choosing. You can stand in the middle of a crowd and orate about whatever your pet subject is, all day long, and government cannot stop you. Of course, if you insult or threaten people, they might react in a manner to your detriment. The people are not government. Remember that. Moving on, the first amendment does not guarantee you a platform. You can speak all you want, no-one has to listen to you or engage you in discourse (right to remain silent, anyone?). The first amendment does not guarantee you the ability to force anyone to accept your presence or engage you at their gatherings, whether public or private. That especially applies to private citizens.
Now, the Washington Post tried very hard to (negatively) misinform the populace, in their reporting and their editorial pages, about the Trump campaign and what the candidate was saying about the issues of the day. Donald Trump made it very clear to them, several times, if they continued, they would not be welcome at his gatherings. For whatever reasons, they did not heed his warnings. It would appear that the Washington Post was having the same delusions about their constitutional rights and powers as most socialist leaning organizations (basically, whatever they want them to be). They seemed to assume that the constitutional right to free speech was applicable to them in their efforts to libel and slander (then) candidate Trump. He was happy to correct their erroneous assumption and they didn't like it. "Based on the incredibly inaccurate coverage and reporting of the record setting Trump campaign," Trump wrote, "we are hereby revoking the press credentials of the phony and dishonest Washington Post." Although it was not required or, at that point, even necessary, he even gave a reason for this exclusion. As the English would say, that's their 'hard cheese'.
"Hypocrite"? Not at all. The Washington Post revealed themselves as a partisan organization bent on demeaning the Trump campaign as much as possible. They outed themselves as the enemy, and were therefore excluded. Case closed.

A1 gives you the right to speak. It does not say I have to provide you what to speak about. This is just another specious argument for lack of something real to whine about.
