President Donald Trump clearly views the First Amendment as the "Worst Amendment," at least the free press and free speech parts. Almost immediately after being inaugurated, Trump began to erode freedom of the press, with antics such as revoking the press credentials of reporters whose coverage he didn't like. More recently, he seems intent on erasing the First Amendment where it counts most -- free speech on social media and technology platforms.
