This is the moment that Donald Trump threatens an ABC reporter after they asked about free speech. Speaking with ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl on Tuesday (16 September), the president appeared to become annoyed after the reporter asked him about Pam Bondi’s crackdown on “hate speech”. “A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech,” Mr Karl said, to which Mr Trump responded: “She’d probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. It’s hate. You have a lot of hate in your heart.” After slamming ABC, the president claimed that he “wants everything to be fair” and placed blame with the “radical left who have done tremendous damage to the country”.

    Maybe the people should finally go after Trump for ideas like that.

    I’m just going to tell you what would happen if this would happen.

    Firstly there might be a few small instances of fed’s kidnapping people and black bagging people. But that won’t last long. People will start arming themselves and the feds will have a daily instance like Waco. The federal agents will dwindle as they try to use force to attack the populace. Then the military will get brought in. But that will only mean more dead federal agents. Because if there’s one thing that happens during federal crimes against the constitution. Is that the populace stops giving a fuck and goes harder than the feds are ready to go.

    This is all an analysis from my time working in domestic terror. If you think this wouldn’t happen. I assure you Americans are not push overs.

    If the country was “fixed”/doing awesome, forecasts for 3 fed cuts by December wouldn’t be current. Labour Statistics department head wouldn’t be fired for giving bad news.

    The bigger problem no matter economic health is “our hate speech is free speech. Your/any criticism, or just concern about the right of criticism, is radical left damaging the country”

    White man speaks with forked tongue. Why do reporters never push back against these absurd statements? I know they’ll lose ‘access’, but that’s better than losing their integrity.

    Ok, I get it now. There’s a delay on my Trump-to-English translation. “Treated fairly” means “unquestioned.”

    He wants people to stop pointing out problematic shit he says and does.

    Carry a gun next time you ask questions, since they aren’t thrilled about the 1st amendment, check them on the 2nd.

      Press are unarmed, it’s what gets them a pass into a lot of situations that armed people don’t get to go to.

      It’s sort of a big part of their identity.

        Fundamental aspects of the press need to change or we’ll continue watching them whitewash everything. Plus I wanna see SCOTUS justify gun control for Fox News people in writing.

              The ABC is a national broadcaster. Think BBC but with an A.
