Nicolle Wallace, who served as communications director during George W. Bush’s administration, said Donald Trump craves the press “like an addict craves their drugs,” The Hill reports.

Said Wallace: “We’ve just elected a man who bullies female reporters at his rally as an applause line. We have just elected a man who started a hot war with a female anchor instead of attending a debate she moderated,” referencing Fox New’s Megyn Kelly.

She added: “We are in a new place. And I don’t think it’s good. And I don’t think it has any parallels to the past.”
