Donald Trump’s campaign blocked a Politico reporter from attending the candidate’s victory rally on Tuesday night, continuing a troubling trend of denying access to reporters who write critically about Trump and his campaign.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You mean the leftist rags cannot do any more drive by hits on Trump?Or deny Trump his 1st amendment rights? ( Trump forced to have security after Move On Org attack in Chicago.)
Whahahahahaahaaaaaa! Crybabies!
But look at what Obama did in 2014:

And in 2011:
Whats good for the leftist goose is good for the populist Gander!

That will make a good policy for White House press conferences from 2017 to 2025, and beyond.
Great! I hope he keeps shunning every lying sphincter crust in the bizniss. Learn what it’s like to have a real man for president, you media sluts!
Good. One man in a million who the press can’t bully. Up theirs!
To some media observers, its almost the definition of a chilling effect a governmental attempt to steer reporters away from negative coverage but the White House press corps has barely uttered a word of complaint.
Politico reported a story that with any investigation at all was shown to be a hoax perpetrated by other reporters. From the tone of this article, they still haven’t retracted that story. Why should they be allowed in?
Trump likes control! Should if affect you personally someday, it might not be so welcomed.

Bush thought it was about being bigger than that and above the fray, but he allowed it to get so bad that Helen Thomas’s trolling became a constant medias circus in and of itself.
It also signaled that Bush had a kick me sign permanently affixed to butt which allowed other false, vitriolic media coverage of bogus, media manufactured controversy like the Plame Affair to reach such a crescendo that it ultimately took down his entire legacy, enabled Obama’s election which destroyed his war on terror an has left the world in smoking ruins.
Trump is open about the fact that he respects and relishes hard ball, but if he is treated unfairly, pushed around and bullied or ambushed, he will push back , fight and punish those responsible.
Building a pubic reputation as person who fights back and will punish those who attack so badly that they regret ever starting that fight is going to be a good and even necessary personality trait for a President who follows President Obama because all of the worlds bad guys have gotten very used to running wild abusing America and it's allies, and committing atrocities and crimes against humanity with impunity.
They may think twice about doing so with Trump as president.
In fact, I think that Trump is intentionally crafting and telegraphing his “You Mess with the Bull, You get the horns” persona to develop a reputation world wide as an American President who will protect American interests, take American national security seriously, will not lead form behind , tolerate abuse of America and it's allies or stand by and watch as people, especially Americans, are beheaded and crucified.
It's very possible that Trump is, from the git go, intentionally crafting his pubic persona putting the world on notice that if elected, there will be a new Sheriff in town .
“a troubling trend” - Eats do this, no one cares. Rats boycott the Number 1 cable news channel, no one cares...
*If you like your biased reporter, you can keep your biased reporter!*
You mean this Susan Glasser of Politico that stated lucidly the current regime is scandal free?http://newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/tim-graham/2016/03/14/politico-editor-touts-obama-integrity-administration-never-marred
They weren’t upset when Obama blocked the NY Post, they weren’t upset when Hillary put reporters behind a rope, please stop
A “troubling trend”? Troubling for whom? I sure didn’t lose any sleep over it. Heck, I’d be fine if Trump barred ALL liberals from his rallies. After all, very few of us would welcome rabid rats into our parlors, would we?
Remember when Joe Biden locked a reporter in a closet?
It begets the question;
Why would Trump consort with known enemies? Why would you treat them to your victory celebration, when they will only write negatively about it?
Thes so-called journalists are nothing but democRAT apparatchiks, best to tell them to shove off.
The rope off behind the candidate Hillary, was for the reporters own protection.
Back away from Hillary’s gigantic toxic waste spot.
He should ban BuzzFeed and Salem Witch Media outlets too, after their breathless promotion of the obvious Michelle Fields fraud.
There were no questions asked. The Politico reporter can watch the video of the speech and write his story.
...not so hard to do.
