Trump goes to dinner without media; wailing about ‘lack of transparency’ produces comedy gold

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Brace yourselves. You’re in for a bit of a shock. Last night, President-elect Donald Trump went out to dinner. ...And he didn’t notify the press.

I know, I know. You’re furious. I’ll give you a moment to recover.

“In a highly unusual move, President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday night left his Manhattan residence without notifying the reporters covering him or giving any indication of where he was going. The maneuver seemed to deliberately limit access to the media.”

ROTFLOL!

Better get used to it, buttercups. President Trump won even with every one of you unfairly attacking him continuously 24x7, so he’s proved he doesn’t need you.

Not only that, but ya’ll have all been continuously attacking him 24x7 since he was elected, so you’ve completely liberated him from giving a damn about what any of ya’ll have to say about him now. What are you gonna do, attack him even harder now?

If Trump needs to speak to us, he can do it through social media, not you bozos, though ya’ll are certainly welcome to report his tweets and such, but of course it will no longer be news as we’ll know everything before ya’ll do.

Ya’ll thought President Trump would play by the old rules whereby he would be a good sport as ya’ll continuously attacked him, and he would just sit back and take it. Well, guess what? President Trump doesn’t play by the old rules. In fact, President Trump doesn’t play by anybody’s rules but his own.

So, no more rides by the enemedia on Air Force One, no more enemedia limos in his motorcades, and no more advance notices about anything he does. Well, maybe not exactly completely no advance notice: President Trump will tweet to us what he’s going to do and where he’s going to go, and ya’ll can read about it when we do.

As I said, better get used to it buttercups. And you have no one to blame but yourselves.

He should tweet CBS when he uses the bathroom with a love note, “thinking of you... xox.”

Wow. The honeymoon with the Press is over before it even started. Must be one of those shotgun weddings.

So, if he has to take a Presidential Time Out in the little boys’ room, does the media have to tag along?

What I’m getting from all this is that Trump’s term of office will actually be four years and a little over two months.

I thought the initial story I read yesterday was satire. Apparently, it wasn’t.

Liberals have no perspective of their own, by definition. Perspective is what they surrender to the collective in order to be liberals. That’s also why they have no sense of humor - unless the collective tells them to laugh.

Likewise, yes, the media moguls are trying to gain some control over Trump, and their reporters don’t mind being idiots for the cause. But right now? Right now, having been in their protected bubble for so long and having had it just popped, these reporters literally do not know they are a farce. They don’t know it, because they have no reference points. And without that, they CAN’T know it.

It’s delicious.

The media are becoming concerned that their relevance is beginning to come into question. Trump has a Twitter account and plenty of skill communications types to manage it. He doesn't really need a press corps to get his message to the targeted audience. So the press is nervous.

Which brings up the next question. The press corps take up valuable space in the White House. How long before they get the boot and their space gets re-purposed for something more useful?

So the media (Rachel Maddow) are upset at the national security risk of the press pool not knowing where the pPresident “ELCET” is. Can they answer where the POTUS was on Sept. 11 2012? Did she ever even ask?
