- We compare President Donald Trump’s attitude toward the media to
that of President Richard Nixon with Nixon’s former counsel, John Dean.
"The big difference is, Trump is doing this right out and challenging
the First Amendment, one of our most important because it involves
freedom of the press and freedom of speech," Dean says. "Anything that
he doesn’t like, any reporting, he calls being an enemy of the people …
It’s just ludicrous. And it’s troublesome that he would try to sway the
press by using the bully pulpit of his office to intimidate them."
