Nixon was president, operating out of the White House and getting paid by government. He really couldn’t ban a newspaper.

Trump is a private citizen. He has the right to limit access by newspapers that will not report honestly.

...

When Trump is president he can ban them at the White House, too.

The Washington Post was a better newspaper years ago. Trump's giving them the respect they deserve in today's world... which is 'none'...

Woodward and Bernstein were hacks who were handed the story by the Washington Post who got it from disgruntled Mark Felt who wanted to destroy Nixon because he was past over for FBI director after Hoover died.

There’s a reason he had to dig several decades to use Nixon as an example instead of using the current occupant (other than he broke the Watergate story).....or.....he’s getting so senile he can only remember things that happened a long, long time ago.
