CNN’s Stelter: Trump is Authoritarian because he mocks ‘journalists’

Wah! CNN and one of their main hacks Brain Stelter continue to prove that Donald Trump lives rent free in their egg heads. Stelter is now urging other media hacks to call Trump Authoritarian because he mocks ‘journalists’ and the liberal press. Keep it up Stelter and CNN. You are like the gift that never stops giving. The liberal media meltdown (especially CNN) since Trump has won the election just wouldn’t go away.

CNN's Stelter: Trump is Authoritarian because he mocks 'journalists'

CNN’s Brian Stelter took his anti-Donald Trump bias to new heights Sunday during his show “Reliable Souses,” where he argued that the media had to start referring to the president-elect as an authoritarian. “I talk to international correspondents who say to you, ‘This is exactly what authoritarians do. This is what strongmen do. This is what happens in authoritarian regimes,’” he claimed, “I think we need to start using those words on TV, at least, to discuss the possibilities before us.”

“What you do in an authoritarian regime is you delegitimize the press,” he continued, as he asked former Fortune editor John Huey if he could see Trump cracking down on the press. Huey agreed and said that Trump practices “the classic techniques of a demagogue.” And according to him, one of the techniques is “to create the idea that someone out there is the enemy.”

“And he started with Mexicans, he moved to Muslims, and sometime in the middle of the summer he really started to focus on the media,” Huey explained, while praising Stelter for being, “one of the first people to pick up on that.” Come to think of it, Hillary Clinton’s claim that Trump’s supporters were a basket of deplorables falls into that narrative.
