During Wednesday's edition of Anderson Cooper 360, washed-up Watergate journalist Carl Bernstein condemned the President's decision to revoke the security clearance of Brennan, joining the chorus of media personalities sounding the alarm bells that a dictator and an authoritarian resides in the White House: "this is what dictators do. This is a dictatorial exercise of power that should frighten and call on all Republicans to say, Mr. President, you cannot do this. You are trying to inhibit the free speech of people who may be in opposition to you, but they have a right to express themselves. This is an act of authoritarianism and demagoguery which defines who Donald Trump is and his total disregard for the First Amendment as we have seen when he calls the press the enemies of the people."
