Trump's Threats to the Media

Trump has openly characterized the media as 'enemies of the people,' suggesting severe consequences such as potential jail time for reporters. This hostile rhetoric has created an environment where journalists are not only threatened on social media, but some have also faced doxing, having their private information shared maliciously. His campaign rallies included alarming statements implying violence towards the press, emphasizing a dangerous hostility towards journalism. Such threats raise concerns about the implications for press freedom during a potential second Trump administration.
