Oh yeah he sure can draw a crowd, not as big as Obama's but hey it's a crowd.

 

 

It's all lies from the media. They lie about everything! Remember this?

Roy Cohn was his closest mentor, a very shady character. Hated homosexuality but was a hawk for little boys.
In cahoots with the mafia. Ended up dying of aids in the 80ties.
 

He told Trump to deny, deny, deny any wrong doing, never admit it and when you lose, declare a victory.

There is a full documentary about Trump from Frontline (if he has not poisoned that for you yet) this is a small clip on Cohn.

Roy Cohn. Cohn, who also represented Studio 54, plus various mobsters, built his legal reputation on “fear mongering”, “character assassination” and a policy of “Don’t settle. Hit back”.

 

They forgot deny and lie at all costs. Trump was a good pupil of Cohn.

He wouldn;t be able to get the jokes, and might lose his cool. He doesn't fare well among intelligent people.

I think you are being a bit generous with the media's intelligence.

I think the so-called president deserves as much respect as he is willing to show for his office, and for the other branches of the government that are no more and no less important that him in any way whatsoever.

 

 

Actually, I think he gives quite a bit of respect to the other branches of the government.  Unlike President Obama, President Trump actually likes to talk to people including those in the Congress.

So true.  If you look at the press briefing you can understand how pathetic most of the press is. They all sit in a room, for hours on end, then all raise their hands begging for Spicer to call on them, so they can ask their stupid "got ya" questions…..that have already been asked countless times. Then they talk like they are so informed and intelligent, loving the sound of their own voice, when they actually come across as fools. 

 

Press reporting should be an entry level minimum wage job. It should just be a stepping stone,starting point to actually begin working. The White house should just bar them all and let children take their places. The questions and the reporting would improve drastically.

My special straight white male privileges allow me access to the internet.  I even get to see pictures and videos……many with sound.

No problem. I was just confirming my belief that you never attended a WH briefing.

Well, you should always check your assumptions, otherwise you'd sound like those Trump supporters who constantly find their feet buried deep inside their mouths.

To be fair..it is not the Presses fault that they sound informed, intelligent and ask gotcha question.  Spicy makes their job too easy
