Trump Bans the Washington Post Then Proves Them Right

Written by SK Ashby

The Donald Trump campaign banned the Washington Post from his campaign events for accurately reporting that he accused President Obama of being in cahoots with terrorists, but Trump repeated the claim this morning, asserting that he was "right!"

The accusation that President Obama is secretly in league with terrorists is obviously ridiculous -- and racist -- but what we can also take away from this is that Breitbart may be the only publication Trump believes to be credible. The Washington Post joins a long and growing list of outlets that have been banned from Trump's events.

Not coincidentally, Breitbart has purged itself of anyone who is even remotely critical of Trump. It's now Trump's personal propaganda outlet.

The White House press corps, if it wasn't disbanded entirely under a Trump presidency, would most likely consist exclusively of right wing tabloids.
