in the days of the civil war when Abraham Lincoln was leading the union troops against the Confederacy. He ran into a problem. many media outlets won't get a civil war and even sided with the Confederacy. And they would publish anti-union story is an anti-union propaganda in an effort to escalate the civil war and even to help the Confederacy. The media was actively trying to create chaos within the United States. Abraham Lincoln did something showed how great a president he was. He ordered the union troops to cut the telegraph wires. He stopped journalist from communicating with each other across state lines. He cracks Down On Media outlets which at the time were newspapers and force them to stuff publishing divisive propaganda. It wasn't the reason that the civil war ended but it certainly helped. In times of great chaos it should be the President's duty to do that exact thing. crackdown on the media and silence them. without the media fanning the flames the protests go away very quickly. If they don't have access to Pro protester propaganda they stop protesting and peace can happen. That's what's necessary. crackdown on the media. I know that scares people who are scared of change but sometimes change is good. change is what made the world a better place. it's a necessary part of history..
