      1. This banning of select news outlets from the press gaggle has been described as authoritarian. True, but it's mainly stupid.

      2. This is stupid because it's so out in the open and transparent. It makes Trump look weak, petty, sensitive and guilty.

      3. All the press barred (except for Daily Mail) have done reporting on Russian story based on leaks from IC or FBI.

      4. Daily Mail, I suspect, got barred because they ran (admittedly unfair) story about Melania.

      5. By his choice of targets Trump is basically blurting out, "That Russian interference story is big, big, big. Leave it alone!" Stupid.

      6. Trump is telling the press: "Keep digging into Russian stuff, give up access journalism & do more investigation." Stupid.

          8. Some people in mentions say this will appeal to Trump's fans. True, but governing means winning over more than your base.

          it's a test to see what they can get away with, see what the repercussions are. the raptors are testing the fence.

          GOP governance is predicated on idea you don't need to expand beyond your base. It remains to be seen if that's a good bet.
