No he recorded tapes that the FBI got a hold of and CNN got their hands on some tapes and leaked them.

Cohen and his attorney, Lanny Davis, sent CNN the tape.  It wasn't leaked from the FBI to CNN.

Still CNN did the leaking. Cohen is scum, CNN is scum. Trump is also scum but in this situation I agree with banning them.

He’s just now doing this?

Trump has just banned CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins from an open press event at the White House, and this is right after he was outraged that he saw Melania watching CNN on Air Force One.

I told you so. Again.

So the left has been trying to get Melania to do something about The Don. She wears a coat that the media would see that says she doesn't care. They continue to bother her and their family. She's then seen watching CNN, and shortly after Trump bans a CNN reporter.

Sounds like Melania finally decided to do something I guess. Why are they so mad?



President Trump:


I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

What happened to being a free country? Trump should stop trying to limit the "free press".

CNN is free to make stories of all of the other journalists in the meeting. They can take photos from outside the doors and then cry about for a week lmao.

 

Attending a whitehouse conference doesn’t have anything to do with freedom of the press as law and banning an organization from meetings doesn’t make the country any less free. What law did Trump break by doing this? He doesn’t have to have press meetings at all if he doesn’t want to. Your claim is out there is all I’m saying.

It's Just so funny how much he hates CNN

He hates anyone who criticizes him to any degree. Then goes into dictator mode in an attempt to stop it. 



I dislike Trump a lot, but you guys certainly like to talk about him.

Considering that they leaked a private tape between him and his lawyer they deserve to get banned

That tape had incriminating evidence of him doing something illegal, so he's essentially doing a cover-up. He's even worse than Nixon.

I thought Trump waived his attorney client privilege?

So CNN did nothing wrong, but so did Trump...probably.

Just more political noise.

I didn't actually say any laws were actually broken... I am not that ignorant to assume to be an expert on American law as I don't even live in that particular country.

Just that Freedom of the Press tends to be a "pillar" in all free countries where all news organizations get the same treatment, whether you like their perspective or not, ergo limiting the free press isn't a good thing. - Trumps tantrum isn't really doing him any favors to that end.
