Today is Donald Trump’s 100th day in office. That leaves 1,362 days to go.
Which prompts the question: What will the press in this country look like on Jan. 20, 2029, when Trump’s second term comes to an end?
As we’ve seen, the first 100 days have been a nonstop assault on the press, not only in words, but in action.
He and the administration have kicked the always-neutral Associated Press out of the press pool. Trump is suing CBS. He had already sued ABC. He is trying to end Voice of America. He is threatening the funding of NPR and PBS. He constantly attacks the media — including MSNBC, CNN, The New York Times, the major networks and even, on occasion, Fox News. His press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, consistently demeans the media during her White House briefings.
