Moderate - Extremist?

       So, a newspaper in Maryland was shot up. Five people were killed. And guess what? The shooter wasn't even a Muslim. He just hated that newspaper. I wonder if he was influenced by Pres. Trump? After all, they were members of the hated, fake news, press.  They were just lucky they weren't part of the MSNBC team, elsewise they'd have been maligned by our president as well.
       Our free press is under attack by our president. News organizations that just happen to be more important to the American people than the president himself. Oh, don't get me wrong, he doesn't hate all news organizations. He really loves  FOX News for some reason. Actually that reason is that they agree with him 100%, or maybe he just takes his lead from FOX News in which case they love him 100% of the time.
       If our president were to get his way the rest of the news gathering organizations in the country would be forced out of business. Why, because they don't agree with his programs that have almost never passed the legal challenges brought against them. I suppose the next legal mind he appoints to the SCOTUS will be so conservative he'll squeak at the mention of Roe v Wade.
       We can only hope that the Senate will force him to be more moderate in his choice. Someone who, at least, doesn't hate the media. It'll only take a couple Republicans to teach him a lesson in how to forge a SCOTUS that will be moderate in its decisions rather than extremist.
