    He talked the whole time about the great things he has already accomplished in such short period of time. What are those accomplishments exactly? I don't recall a single accomplishment. Most failed utterly.

    He stated why at the very beginning of the rally. Go watch the video.

  5. This is "trollboy" ZZZzzz1's pattern of behavior. He will claim that you "always" do something to put you on the defensive (kinda like the leftist tactic of calling everyone that disagrees with them a racist, sexist, etc, etc...)

    He left this place a few years ago with his tail between his legs (as volpunter). He's just a pathetic and sad troll.

    John Dickerson: Trump Didn’t Ruin Media’s Reputation, We Did

    FEBRUARY 17, 2017 By Bre Payton


    CBS’s John Dickerson joined Hugh Hewitt’s radio show Friday to talk about Donald Trump’s 77-minute long confrontation with the media earlier this week.

    When Hewitt asked Dickerson if the media has betrayed the trust of the American people, the “Face The Nation” host said the press did that all on its own by acting hysterically about “every little thing.”

    It’s not because of anything obviously Donald Trump did. The press did all that good work ruining its reputation on its own, and we can have a long conversation about what created that. Part of it, though, is what you mentioned about the local weather report, which is to say a lot of hysterical coverage about every little last thing that doesn’t warrant it. Having said that, it doesn’t mean, and in fact, it most explicitly does not mean that the press just throws out the standards.


    Despite media’s overreaction to “every little thing,” Dickerson pointed out that Trump made several egregious misstatements during his midweek presser, and that the president ought not to posture as a truth-teller if he is not precise with his own words.

    “If you’re going to make a case on honesty grounds and truthfulness grounds, if that’s the turf on which you’re going to hold your press conference and open your press conference. . . to elide it completely seems inconsistent with the argument that you’re making in the 77 minute press conference,” he said.

    h/t Mediate.

    Let me humor you and state that you are wrong on all counts. @WeToddDid2 indeed constantly posts fake news, he pastes content in textual form that is not contained in the links he also posts.

    And I am not volpunter, in fact I have never exchanged thoughts with a user called volpunter. But I could not care less what you call me. Feel free to do whatever pleases you. You are just upset that I outed one of your nazi friends as liar and fake news disseminator
