Holy....that was...quite a press conference.

  1. That's a fair point about the rally, but I can also understand the position people take when they say he hasn't gotten a fair shake from the press during this first few weeks. The hyperventilating is so overblown that it cannot be taken seriously.

  2. Keep in mind that he would never have gotten the kind of campaign publicity he did if the media did not act then as it is acting now. In that respect, you have the media to thank for getting him elected. The media pounces on stupidity because it is red meat.

    The man was running for president and said stupid shit. How could the media not report on it?

    You should be able to answer your own question.

    That's true. And isn't it puzzling? The irony in someone who is a pathological liar accusing the American Press of "Fake News" has somehow completely escaped these millions...???

    I don't think it has escaped them. I just don't think they care anymore about that. They want someone who will tear down all the corruption that has been sown by liberals and establishment republicans, and of course, your precious Fed. If the person who does that happens to tell a whole bunch of fibs, they're willing to live with it.

    Keep your eye on the ball.

    The pathological liars are the liberals and their propaganda machine which is the mainstream media. Almost every statement they make is a lie. The left and mainstream media has been doing it for years.

    I watched MSNBS for a few minutes yesterday. They had some dumbshit libtard Senator on. He stated that the leaks are coming from IC but they are most likely coming from private sector hackers. In other words, he said there is no way that it is coming from IC but that the Whitehouse phone system has been hacked by some hackers. MSNBC just glossed over it like it was nothing.

    What you are saying here would make sense to me were you describing the possible reasons for the decision of a mentally stable person with a good head on their shoulders. But here is a concern. Trump is giving clear signs that he is delusional. There are is now so many signs of this that they can be no longer ignored.

    I do think you are right. But are they basing their beliefs on facts, or are they just accepting as factual what their delusional President is telling them? When they see the President telling them things that they know are false, why wouldn't that raise a red flag in their minds! Are we now observing in the U.S. the same crowd manipulation techniques that have been used by dictators around the globe in third world countries to seize power?

    What, Did he nearly pass out during the press conference and have to recuperate at his daughters apartment or stumble and have to be carried out to the limo by the secrete service ?
