In an abrupt statement on Donald Trump’s Facebook page, the Trump campaign has announced that they are revoking the press credentials for the Washington Post to all Trump campaign events.
Conservatives have groused about the Washington Post regularly and repeatedly for years, but this is without a doubt the first time a Presidential candidate has ever attempted something like this. ….
Trump, though, has a bug up his butt about the WaPo in particular, due in no small part to the fact that the Washington Post finally shamed him into donating to veterans’ groups a couple weeks ago, not to mention the fact that they reported the fact that he freaked out and hung up on their reporters back in May when asked about his alter ego. Trump has started an open war with Jeff Bezos, who owns the Washington Post, and threatened to sic the Justice Department on Amazon if he becomes President.

On a day when Trump wants to look tough on national security he bans the Washington Post from his events for being too mean to him. Awesome.
