Davos Foreign Press Boos After Donald Trump Slams ‘Vicious’ Fake News
breitbart ^ | CHARLIE SPIERING

President Donald Trump again criticized the news media, but this time in Davos, Switzerland, at the World Economic Forum. “It wasn’t until I became a politician that I realized how nasty, how mean, how vicious, and how fake the press can be,” Trump said, as some in the audience booed.

He joked that the cameras were “going off in the back” after his comment. One reporter in the room noted that foreign journalists joined the boos from people in the audience.

Trump said he used to get great press from the media when he was a celebrity businessman but that reporters turned on him when he ran for president.

He commented that the fake news didn’t stop him from being president.

“Somebody said, ‘They couldn’t have been that bad because here we are; we’re president,’” Trump said, praising his team for doing a great job for the country.

Perhaps there's nothing like economic success to change minds; and America's leadership transformation from a "redistribution" mentality to a "creation of wealth" mentality, such as that which existed in America even before 1776, was swift and productive following years of Democrat and Republican Progressive ideology domination.

All the world now has an example of what can happen when, under limited government and individual freedom, citizens--whether as individuals, small businesses, or heads of large corporations--will make decisions which benefit both themselves and the entire population.

Remember that great moral philosopher, Adam Smith? What was described above sums up his conclusions about economic outcomes when each citizen pursues his own personal benefits, and the outcome benefits his neighbors and the entire society.

The "boos" keep the press's attention! Keep them going.

I don’t think he was booed....it was the cameras moving that he pointed out that were being booed.

“It wasn’t until I became a politician that I realized how nasty, how mean, how vicious, and how fake the press can be,” Trump said, as some in the audience booed.

Of course. When you're a vapid celebrity, and "controversial" means you shaved Vince McMahon's head, the press loves you. You're a distraction and useful to them.

When you run for President on a "drain the swamp" platform, you threaten them directly and personally. They'll stop at nothing; they'll lie, cheat and steal (and possibly worse) to destroy you.

Donald Trump's Al Smith Dinner speech is instructive. That's when he woke up, and showed that he really knew what kind of scumbags populate the "left". His "friends", the Schumers, the Clintons, etc. stabbed him in the back.

Well, you're not really a Politician yet Mr. President, please don't become one, but thank you for the Honesty and Candor, President Trump.

Hopefully he will use the lesson well, it is critical that he does.

Sh*t sticks together.
Especially MSM excrement.
And the People’s Republic of Europe is obviously even worse than our collection of septic tank dwellers.

Must have been all journolists in the audience, or globalists!

When will someone do a movie about the fake news industry? Mixed with a little humor, it could be hitlarious!
