The Press That Called to Censor Trump Cannot Stop Their Compulsion to Broadcast His Words
Have you noticed that after his words are claimed to pose an inherent threat to the nation, Trump’s quotes manage to appear everywhere?

It was the first week of March when something caught my eye and then strummed something in the back of my brain. It was a tweet from Maggie Haberman and she was basically responding to a claim made by Donald Trump that he had not sought an endorsement from Sarah Huckabee Sanders. What struck me was she gave a screencap of Trump’s comments on the matter from Truth Social. There was a full quote from the despised former president, placed prominently on the social platform he had been chased off of years prior, and whose reinstatement in the Fall by Elon Musk had led to wailing from the press.
This was incongruous with what we had been lectured about for years; Trump’s words were said to be so harmful that they were required to be cast away in permanence, and yet here was a member of the press sharing them willingly on the very platform from which the press demanded they be banned. It was hardly an isolated incident, and it only predated far more of this from the journalism sector.
