    NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump’s campaign says it will no longer give passes to Bloomberg News reporters to cover its rallies and other campaign events.

    Campaign spokesman Brad Parscale said Monday that Bloomberg, in the wake of founder Michael Bloomberg’s own Democratic presidential bid, has “formalized preferential reporting policies.” Bloomberg’s Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait says that’s not true.

    When Bloomberg announced his candidacy, Micklethwait said his news organization would not investigate the boss or other Democratic candidates. But he said the Trump administration would continue to be covered.

    Some critics said that has put Bloomberg reporters in a difficult position, made more so by the Trump campaign’s announcement on Monday.

    Bloomberg “news organization would not investigate the boss or other Democratic candidates. But he said the Trump administration would continue to be covered.” Why would anyone allow an enemy, the Bloomberg reporters, especially a dishonest enemy, into their meetings?

    Fair question. They have a credibility problem now with election news.

    I dont see any difference between Bloomberg News & the Washington Post. In fact, a reader (or viewer) of Bloomberg is on alert for bias with Bloomberg, and thinks that the Washington Post is objective, when they are in fact even more biased.

    Bloomy comes off as the most sane of the Lunacrat field. However, his ideology is as radical as the rest of them. Wants adult soda cups eliminated, pours $$$$ into Diaper Change , overrode a 2 term referendum to power grab a 3rd term, ordered dangerous bike lanes in busy NYC to imitate Paris, and now publicly regrets stop & frisk which was a good idea when he was logical. Now he’s a flaming hypocrite trying to brown nose progressive lefties, illegals and dead voters. He’ll never make it anyway cuz he’s a certified bore and an alter knocker at that. Has zero feeling for his fellow Jews, and did I mention he’s a radical stuffy bore? Yes, I did.

    Trump is smart. Why should he let his enemies destroy him. Only the foolish secular Israelis are foolish enough to allow their enemies to live among them. trump 2020

    It’s mildly sad to watch a successful man and a moderate for most of his life, veer so left to appease a lunatic progressive base.
    Like a 99 yr old lady all botoxed and who knows what else, to look like a 30 yr old.
    There’s a Yiddish song Vus is Geven is Geven , and its main lyric is ” You don’t fool anybody but yourself.”
    He’s going nowhere fast.
