In my previous blog I asked if the US was heading to a
fascism with Trump, today the White House did not allow CNN, the New York Times, Politico, the Los Angeles Times and BuzzFeed
to
get into the press office under the premise of “fake news”.
As I said then the symptoms are typical of a demagogue, a
fascist and a tyrant.
Governing for the 43% may pay off in the short run, but
it is not the way of bringing the country together.
Trump talks about the press as being “the enemy of the
people”. These are the same things that totalitarians say. Putin does not allow
voices of opposition or discord. The function of the press is to expose the
lack of transparency of the people that have elected to represent the
constituents. Could this be one of the reasons why Trump admires Putin?
Trump does not want any investigation into his dealings
and businesses with Putin and the Russian government before and after the election.
He will not disclose his taxes which will not allow the public to see what
deals he has with the world and he will not divest his businesses.
One example of his dealings with Russia was General
Flynn, and the only reason he was fired is because the FBI intercepted his
phone call with the Russian ambassador.
It is obvious that what the White House did today with
the press is just a distraction so that the focus would the unprecedented
behavior of this administration.
Is there any doubt that Trump and many in his cabinet and
White House are involved in a cover up that makes Watergate seem like “small
potatoes”?
His voters seem to be the easiest crowd to take by their
nose as they believe, or they don’t want to see the facts for what they are. If
I would be watching Fox News (or No News) I would also believe everything this
White House says.
