Brian Allen(@allenanalysis):🚨 Trump just called a New York Times reporter “treasonous” to her face. The same president who swore an oath to defend the Constitution is now labeling journalism — protected by the First Amendment he took that oath to uphold — as treason. The same word the Constitution reserves for waging war against the United States. Used against a reporter asking questions. “You’re a fake guy… I actually think it’s sort of treasonous what you write.” — to the NYT. CNN got the same treatment: “the worst.” When the powerful start calling questions “treason,” the next step is never good for the country. What happens to a republic when the president brands the free press as enemies of the state?
