FWIW - I didn't find ANY photos of Spicer and PEOTUS together.

Odd, huh?

The media don’t respect Trump, they will never respect Trump, and it galls them no end that Trump will be president in less than two weeks.

It occurred to me yesterday evening that while Twitter conveys a message, Facebook would be better. I suspect there will be a facebook page conveying the same info as the press briefing

Screw the press. Forget the polls. They are always WRONG.

The press hated Reagan. They hate Trump.

All Trump has to do is BE TRUMP!

Remember, Trump spent <1/2 of what Hillary Spent. (he is sane) Hillary spent a reported 1.2 Billion trying to buy the office, and that is way understated. There is no telling what Soros agents spent.

Starve the Media. Expose their lies daily. (he needs staff to do that) He had big things to deal with, the press is not important if he does what he must do.

The ABC evening news is on in our house. I am usually cleaning up the kitchen while it’s on, but I catch the gist. I cannot recall even one instance where Trump was given fair, let alone favorable, coverage in months and months. It’s truly laughable. Sometimes I asked for “equal” time and we switch over the Fox News. Trump is rarely lauded there either, but at least it’s somewhat balanced pro and con.

It’s proof many people know what Big Media is all about. They voted for Trump anyway.

-—Starve the Media-—

Back years ago, we had a Free Republic Media Chapter with 500 members. We worked mightily to study and implement means to subdue the MSM. There were some successes but mostly we failed.

Trump had implemented the means and the MSM and even the hangers on are in a panic

berts Rule:
A man who buys ink by the barrel should not go to war with a President that has a Twitter account.

Why would he consult with Dana Perino?

They may not respect Trump, but the fear the hell out of him.

They are scared spitless that Trump will succeed on many fronts and that blacks, hispanics, yutes, wymmyn, lbgtq-lsmft, etal will have the scales fall from their eyes, and become less and less dependent on the gummint and will vote for the new pubbies.

Spicer, as part of Trump’s crew, needs to tell his boss that continuing to send him and Conway to the ongoing Trump bash-fests at the MSM outlets just gives the enemy more ammunition to shoot at Trump. The MSM outlets have not ever, and will not ever, give Trump and his administration anything but the back of their hand. By Trump’s willingness to throw his spokespeople to the MSM wolves, Trump is enabling the very disrespect that Spicer decries. It’s a new age with all sorts of options for Trump to get his word out. The MSM has been totally discredited during the past year and half. Trump needs to cut the cord with the bastards and get out from under the stupidity of the past methods of communications. He must stop giving the MSM oxygen to legitimize their propaganda against him.

Yesterday I had one of the press type panels explain that if Trump departs from the way the press is used to being handled, that he risks a backlash from them.
I laughed. When they are 100% hostile already, their threats have zero weight.

Few people trust the mainstream media (MSM) outside of New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles and Washington, DC. Especially since WikiLeaks showed the direct link between the MSM and the Democratic National Committee back in late July 2016--essentially the MSM is a form of state-run media like the Soviet Union era Pravda.
