I always find it strange and somewhat inconsistent when Trump supporters talk about the sanctity of the constitution, our founding fathers, and the formation of our country. Our founding fathers believed in a free press. Donald Trump does not.
Before we declared independence from Great Britain, the British government attempted to censor American media by prohibiting newspapers from publishing unfavorable information and opinions. This was deeply disturbing to our founding fathers. A few quotes:
“Freedom of speech is a principal pillar of a free government: When this support is taken away, the constitution of a free society is dissolved,” - Benjamin Franklin 
“Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost.” -Thomas Jefferson
“But none of the means of information are more sacred, or have been cherished with more tenderness and care by the settlers of America, than the press.” - John Adams
There are MANY more and let us not forget what the FIRST amendment of our constitution says:
When Trump rails against “fake news,” he denigrates the very foundation we were built upon. Journalists are more important now than ever and I applaud every person doing this vital work for our democracy. #freepress #FreedomOfSpeech #firstammendment
