From yesterday.

I did not see all of it, or even most of it. I will eventually watch it all. I bounced around watching bits and pieces.
But from what I saw, Trumps on a roll.

I said last summer, I want him to get elected for many reasons, but one of them was the entertainment value and his truthful out spokeness

Early on in the video he says he "inherited a mess, a mess".

That the press is "out of control."

I've been critical of Trump when I felt it was warranted, but I loved today's press conference. I watched it live and in it's entirety and he was in fact on a roll.

The biggest point that comes to mind is when he mentions that if he was fed questions to the debate ahead of time he would have been crucified. Instead, the media (with the exception of FOX News) didn't even report about it.

I just finished watching it. I thought regarding that issue the thing that stood out the most was his comment about Hillary's low character in that why didn't she just do something about it, rather then accepting the info and using it to her unfair advantage.
But that's the dems for you, claiming the higher morale ground but really snakes in the grass.

I was at a church meeting yesterday and we were talking about prayer and how when we pray for people that have done us wrong or who we do not like, that we grow closer to them and more loving to them, even if it is just in our mind and outlook.
I commented funny, that has not happened to me with Obama.

Did you know Fox got sued some years ago for saying something false about someone and was found innocent, or not liable. Do you know why?

Fox News lost all credibility with me when they actually spent six minutes talking about why mr. Rogers is bad for kids because it gives them a false sense of entitlement

Dude, I am just saying that Fox is somewhat better, imho, then CNN, et al. But no paragon of news virtue either.
The answer to my question. Do you want it, or not?
t may surprise you.

to me, this is one of the best things I've seen in along time. it's way past time that someone stood up to the lying media. they have ran roughshod over people for way too long.

I haven't watched it yet. I'll probably look at it later. But I'm thinking how do we know the media is lying just because Trump says they are???

This was a great press conference. Straightforward and to the point. Only the disingenuous would criticize Trump for how he handled himself and answered those questions put forward. There was nothing to dislike or criticize him for.

My advice would be to watch it prior to raising any concerns. Love him or hate him, he will serve your country well.

What would you consider a true sense of entitlement..... for anyone?

BTW, can you post a link to that stuff about Mr. Rogers? This is the first time I've ever heard a thing about it.

The reason is obvious. Trump's go to is honesty while the media's fall back is to lie.

You go on FOX to hear the parts of almost any story that CNN deliberately leaves out.

Mr. Rogers had nothing to do with it, I could not stand that guy, but that has nothing to do with your claim. Parents giving in to kids pleading, "I want such and such toy and I will lose my friends without it", lack of discipline, not giving them any sort of responsibility (chores), allowing their child to throw a tantrum for not getting their way teaches the kid they are entitled to EVERYTHING!

Btw, I dont think the Kardashians are the way they are because of Mr. Rogers :p

Oh..... Then FOX was really just talking about common sense parenting?

As fantastic as Trump's presser was, I wish he had hammered the specific point that for the very most part, THERE WAS NO INVESTIGATIVE reporter to go after the beyond incredibly damaging leaks from obama leftover intel people. Especially the phone calls with foreign heads of state.

Think about it. The acual contents of PRIVATE phone calls between the President of the United States, and leaders of foreign governments broadcast to the whole world!!!

How can this NOT be a scandal, resulting in mass imprisonment, of staggering proportions!!? And WHERE is the press on this?
