(5,730 posts)46. He's putting them in "time out." Next time, if they are good
to him... kiss his ass or at least do not report real news about his scandals and lies...he will let them in. He will keep the others out who did real reporting. He is going to punish them like children, as he said he wanted to do with women who had an abortion.
As he said about Putin, he said nice things about me, so I like him. This is his standard: Say nice things, good, you get a star. Say truth, bad things, punishment. He has made it very clear.
