Trump Press Conference

[Option D]

Look... I understand you guys like to be loyal to the Donald. But please, as adults, can you say that's the press conference you want to hear from your new president. Like be honest bro.

We watched a lot of his rallies. Hell, every network aired them.

When we elected him, we didn't expect him to change. He's speaking like he's always spoke. He's been responding to the media like people have been wanting someone to do for the past 3 decades.

Is some of it childish and inappropriate? Sure. But is out of his league? No. He seemed to be enjoying himself up there.

Are you referring to this conference?

The answer is yes! This is exactly what we want. No more business as usual. Trump won being Trump and that is what we want. The left still does not get it!

Exactly! If Trump changes that would be a big concern because it would mean someone got to him. I say to Trump keep doing what you're doing buddy! We have your back!

I thought it was fantastic and should move him closer to 60% in the approval rating.

The media is less popular than herpes. From a political standpoint it only makes sense to attack them.

So far Republican congress people (persons?) are pretending that haven't seen it and refuse to comment

I've noticed CNN playing on less public TVs recently and replaced by Fox - lol! CNN sucks and should fail.

Political genius on Trump's part. The lying, disgraceful media is the ultimate foil.

And it's only getting worse.

I don't blame you for trying to change the subject

Kind of hard to defend a pathological liar so much better to try to pivot to a different topic

Doesn't matter.

Asses in seats matter and Democrats will lose more of those over the coming 4 years with Trump at the helm.

Be honest say what you actually liked about his press conference. 

How about the fact he had one, which Obama rarely did?  Or the fact he stood there answering questions for over an hour?

Dems lost seats in large part to Republicans gerrymandering districts across the country

Not really sure how you're connecting the dots on how an POTUS with record breaking low approval rating is going to translate into more seats in 4 years (or 2 years since that is the next election)

it was sad watching an obviously mentally disturbed buffoon make a total ass out of himself during the press conference. He got called on his bogus bragging claim and his response was "well, I saw those numbers somewhere". Im a little concerned when someone in that position doesn't bother to check the facts before spouting more BS. The man simply cannot tell the truth if it would save his life. A self absorbed spoiled nutcase is now president... awesome..

The whole of Middle America is happy with what is going on and will stick with this POTUS over the network press.

The East/West Coasts, Chicago and Austin aren't/won't.

If you aren't glued to MSNBC/NPR/CNN every day the hysteria they are selling is just not present in your life. Guy has been in office for a month, and the same patience Obama enjoyed will apply to normal people even if the news is on attack mode 24/7. He's simply keeping campaign promises, just as Obama did.

[mass243]

Sensible guy. All the way sensible guy.
Seems like he is thinking himself and not just parrotting opinions of the "gray cardinals".

[Bindare_Dundat]

that was great. and watching these idiots in the media and their mindless zombies  call him unhinged and wild and antisemitic after this was even better to witness. 

what a bunch of pussies.

Had there been a Getbig in Hitlers time, I'm sure one of his supporters would have posted something just like you did..

That is exactly what I want to hear from him.

Much of the press is nothing more than an arm of the democrat party.  Dishonest, biased, political activists bent on destroying any Republican and providing cover for democrats.

FUCK THEM.

Question : Without a free and open press, how do the citizens check the power of the POTUS?
answer : They don't! If he can delegitimize the press, he can  operate without oversight.

Besides not letting CNN and NYT's into a pow-wow with Sean Spicer, how is Trump restricting the press from doing their job? More specifically, what is he doing differently than previous administrations?

[Yamcha]

C'mon now, Pres Trump rants endlessly about the unfair media and fake news.

He sounds like some disgruntled ex-gf, constantly saying how wrong and unfair her bf was.

How about showing some adult behavior like VP Pence , and acting like the POTUS now.

Do you acknowledge that there is an EXTREME, unfair bias against Trump in the media?
