It was a sustained assault on the free press, freedom of speech, the First Amendment, and a democratic government that honors individual freedom. While Trump has always been an opponent of the media &#8211; which he refers to in Stalinist terms as <em>&#8220;the enemy of the people&#8221;<\/em> &#8211; he has taken his hostility to a new low that provides incontrovertible evidence that his regime and Fox News are conjoined partners in undermining the free society principles that the United States were founded on.<\/p>\n<p>Trump began his Sunday sermonizing with an attack on Saturday Night Live, which he seems to be unaware was a rerun:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">It\u2019s truly incredible that shows like Saturday Night Live, not funny\/no talent, can spend all of their time knocking the same person (me), over &amp; over, without so much of a mention of \u201cthe other side.\u201d Like an advertisement without consequences.

The flailing Snowflake-in-Chief is now spending his time barking at comedians, even though there supposedly a <em>&#8220;national emergency&#8221;<\/em> in progress. But even worse, he thinks that his government agencies should have the power to investigate these comics due to their having the audacity to make fun of him. If he doesn&#8217;t like it, he shouldn&#8217;t give them so much material. But his inclination to use oppressive state measures to silence them should worry every patriotic American. And <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=40601\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">it wasn&#8217;t the first time<\/a><\/strong> he&#8217;s done this either.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, his impotent swings at SNL also include crazy allegations that the funny folks on late night TV are the ones colluding with Russia, a nation not well known for its sense of humor. And he follows that up with the false assertion that he enjoys a fifty-two percent approval rating. He got that from an ultra-biased Rasmussen poll that is now a moth old. Rasmussen currently has him at forty-eight percent, while most other polls put him the thirties.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you think any of that was proof that Trump has lost his mind, you might want to sit down. Because he was just getting warmed up. His next tweets contained more of his psychotic whining about a <em>&#8220;Witch Hunt,&#8221;<\/em> followed by a personal attack on John McCain&#8217;s intelligence. How utterly repulsive for Trump to go after a dead senator\/veteran who can&#8217;t defend himself. Especially for something that Trump is notably lacking in. Trump even had his <em>&#8220;fixer&#8221;<\/em> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Entertainment\/wireStory\/cohen-threatened-trumps-schools-share-grades-scores-61361180\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">threaten his schools<\/a><\/strong> to keep his records secret.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Trump disgorged himself with a what could only be described as a slobbering suck-up to Fox News, the network that defends his every atrocity and maligns his critics with outright lies. What triggered Trump was the news that one of his adoring bootlickers, Jeanine Pirro, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2019\/03\/judge-jeanine-wont-air-on-fox-amid-controversy-over-comments-about-rep-ilhan-omar-1202577000\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">was bumped Saturday<\/a><\/strong> for a rerun of a tabloid documentary. While Fox wouldn&#8217;t comment on the preemption, it has been credibly speculated that they didn&#8217;t want her program to air so soon after the massacre at Muslim mosques in New Zealand, because of her recent Islamophobic comments. Based on that, Trump went to work on behalf of his bosses at Fox News:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Bring back <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JudgeJeanine?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JudgeJeanine<\/a> Pirro.
