Trump Campaign ‘Ejected’ Times Reporter From Michigan Rally, Seemingly Without Explanation | Talking Points Memo

On Thursday, Republican host on ABC’s “The View” Meghan McCain disparaged the press saying, journalists were “the enemy” to Republicans who are “here to make you look bad.”

Such a difficult task.

Female! Reporter! New York Times!
There are 3 solid reasons for ejecting her from a Trump rally.
Other things, like having a brain, curiosity, ability to engage in critical thinking, are all simply icing on the cake.

She was tracked down and removed for a picture of ill-responsible people encouraged by tRump:

The headline always needs to be that Trump is afraid of the press, and considers using clips of him as “attacks”, since he is afraid of the truth.
We should talk about him always in terms of weakness: fear, limited intellect, physical weakness, hair loss, inarticulate speech…
He would lose it.

Ejecting the NYT journalist is one thing but he seems to be in the process of ejecting an entire state. From Josh’s twitter feed.

Ms. McCain has huge chips on her shoulders. She’s constantly pointing out how difficult it is for a conservative woman like her to be on The View’s panel. While she is often capable of making balanced and nuanced statements with insight on complex issues, they are almost always preceded by saying something alluding to the aforementioned complaint. She has a lot of growing up to do.

Creating these headlines to let the kkkult know he is owning the libs was the reason. It doesn’t require explanation.

Since this news is hardly unexpected, here’s something much more fun to start the morning: Bang! Bang! On the door, Baby!

I hope all the other reporters walked out in solidarity because this rally isn’t anymore news worthy then a report that water is wet.

Anyone who points out that the Emperor has no clothes is now officially an enemy of the people and must be removed.

Do the producers of The View encourage her to say more controversial things, just to promote conflict and discussion? Or does it flow naturally from deep inside? I just can’t tell… (nor do I watch the show).

Yeah …wondering same…

It really lacks authenticity … she comes across as an utterly fabricated shill … the whipsawing in and out of character is just stupid… she really needs to sit down and have a long talk with herself about personal integrity

She’s a loser. I like reporters who don’t get kicked out of Trump rallies.

I see bits and pieces occasionally and get the impression she’s always looking for perceived slights, always playing defense.

The same deal they have with many members of the White House press corps.

Without explanation? Without explanation?

The explanation is simple and obvious: Telling the truth.

So do the people who pay her to appear on television.

That’s funny. I never took you for a hopeless optimist.

She was ejected because it is a stock feature of all Trump rallies to harass or intimidate the press who are there, in one way or another. It fires up the crowd.

The namby-pamby mainstream media always act as if the Trumpazoids must be kidding when they say the press is the enemy of the people. They are dead serious.

Actually suspect that they may be a part of her problem … she was hired to play a position (right field) … but it seems that she would prefer to move to a bit different spot ( center field) … ah but that position is not open …and now she is stuck awkwardly playing a position that seems not to her true liking.
