Hey Matthew Dowd, get off your high horse.
The ABC political analyst got very preachy, on Friday, as he scolded Donald Trump supporters for attacking a “free press.”
On his official Twitter account Dowd pontificated: “It seems today that the only block to authoritarianism is a free press. And President and his supporters are fullscale attacking that. Wow.” Dowd later added: “Our congress today is just enabling it. And I don't trust judiciary at this point.”
Of course, it’s not the “free press” that Trump and his supporters oppose, it’s the biased and fake news so often spouted by the liberal media.
The following are the relevant July 7 tweets as they appeared on Dowd’s Twitter account:
