When you use camera time to try and stronghold the media with a rant, that just makes more news and they will only do more things to piss you off, like sniffing out your alternative facts and stuff.

You're welcome.

Funny how Biff supporters thought Biff was going to 'whip the press into shape'. They're just doing their job. Being President is nothing like running Biff Enterprises.
I thought their job was to report the news?

And hold public officials accountable.

That's why Little Hands Donnie doesn't like them.
Their job is to report. Our job is to hold our government accountable. Your job is to call the first lady a ***** while millions of women march the streets hoping to be treated equally.

Our founding fathers thought the freedom of the press was so important they put it in the 1st Amendment to the US Constitution, not the Declaration of Independence, and they recognized the role of the press in keeping politicians honest.

Biff has a giant learning curve. Problem is he's 70 and still thinks he's gonna beat the bad ol' media....whatever

I had a PA officer tell me once to not get into a battle with the media, and it was great advice. There was a reporter trying to sensationalize a story. You want the media to be your friend.

I guess I am going to have to re-teach you again that the constitution does not grant rights, it limits our government.

Pretty sure Trump needs no help or advice manipulating the media. He pretty much pants'd them for 18 straight months.

How do we hold them accountable without credible information on their actions? Can't blame CNN or any other news organization for throwing blows when someone questions their credibility.

They openly destroyed their own credibility. They gave up their ability to hold others accountable when they stopped holding themselves accountable.

They gave up their credibility when their repirters started getting permission from the DNC to run stories and when they started getting debate questions from DNC operatives. The chose sides so now they have no credibility.

Good point. But you haven't seen false facts reported by CNN?

That would be an alternative fact.
Have you been asleep the last 18 months? He used the media like a $2 *****. Moreover, their animosity towards him (most of it absolutely warranted) destroyed their ability to have any impact going forward. The people that already don't like him or Republicans will just go "see, we told you he would suck" and the other side will just say "that's biased/fake news". Meanwhile, he sends a tweet out that's so brilliantly small it opens up the war to see who can't interpret it the most insane ways and before you know it, you forgot that he just invaded Poland because the media you watch is too busy arguing over a fvcking tweet.

Hahahahahaha, you guys still haven't learned. What's worse, none of the traditional tactics by the left will work anymore. He effectively neutralized your biggest weapons, the media and Hollywood. Lol, good luck!

Is reporting the WH Press Secretary lied and acted like a baby in his first PC to appease his megalomaniac boss somehow not reporting the news?

I like how it's all us vs them. No need worry about what was said. Nevermind that shitshow of a WH Briefing.



The President lost the popular vote....I think you might be over-stating his destruction of the news. Jesus Christ, we are still in the first week.

You are incorrect. I have zero trust in him but have studied what he's been able to do and how he was able to do it over the last 18 months. He controls the narrative whether good or bad, and if it's bad, he just creates a new talking point after a few days either equally or more outrageous and the cycle repeats.

I don't hate the left, but I'm not a huge fan of a lot of their policies in practicality.

Well, I agree with your thoughts on his strategy and how effective it's been. Scares the $&@+ out of me though. The smarter they seem to me, the scarier. I liked it better when he was just an egotistical joke.

As long as its talk about Trump, he don't care. Anything else, he will grab the reigns.

What's weird is that he seems to hate bad press, so he gets more bad press, but he loves bad press, so he gets MORE of what he's looking for anyway.

Your delusion is amazing. The media has simply reported facts. They reported the craziness of Trump. Because Trump was so incredibly bizarre, it appeared the media was biased.

********. His inauguration numbers eat at him. He's not some wunderkind politician....he's a pissbaby.
I agree. He's at 40% approval and barely beat a weak Clinton. The press calls his BS, he rants at them and somehow his base thinks he's geniusly maneuvering the press off a cliff. Not.

It eats at him because he thinks he's wonderful. He fails to understand, as does the left mocking the size, is those that voted him into office aren't the type to travel to attend such events.

Also, geography plays a big role in that turnout as well. As they pointed out on Meet the Press, the vast majority of counties in MD and VA surrounding DC lean heavily Democrat these days and therefore you can't expect to pull those people in.
