President Donald Trump sat down for an exclusive one-on-one with ABC News chief anchor George Stephanopoulos after the president's summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Tuesday in Singapore.

Among a host of topics, Trump said he trusts Kim to follow through on his pledge to denuclearize, discusses how long it will take, the "terrible" Iran nuclear deal and explains the now-viral photo of him facing down Angela Merkel at the G-7 summit in Quebec.

The first question asked at the Press Conference showed where they want to take this.

The Woman Journalist ignored the most important reason for this Summit, Denuclearization, and went after POTUS Trump about Human Rights in North Korea. Others followed suit by trying to minimize the importance of what was talking place.

He should have replied to her nonsense by saying you walk before you run. Even the bitchy tone of her question was a giveaway to me.

They are trying to make that the issue, when just Months ago they were talking about Nuclear War and blaming POTUS Trump for wanting to start one.

I checked out some other stations. MSNBC, Morning Joe, was in full throttle Trump bashing

This event in Singapore has made me decide not to look at the opposition media again. If they want to spend their time finding fault with what has just occurred, then there is no hope for them. I'm not even going to keep watching a show on FoxNews when they show a few clips of the propagada networks so that they can talk about it.

Actual news, like the full press conference is usually available on the internet. I will appreciate others on FreeRepublic keeping me informed if something really momentous happens on the part of the enemedia.

Did George help him with his answers?

I saw Trump here in Montana on the campaign stump. Got to shake his hand. Got an autographed MAGA hat. He kept saying in his stump speech that we’d get tired of winning. Now I know what he meant. (Not that we’re tired of it).

[ConservativeMind]

So, how many nuclear weapons does South Korea have?

I interpret the question to mean an anti-ballistic missile system will remain. That is the “umbrella.”

[rlmorel]

Loved it. Hehe, Trump’s body language “manspreading” made me laugh! (Contrasting with Stephanopolous’s metrosexual leg crossing!)

I loved his take on “The Picture”!

[xrmusn]

Huh? Isn’t the president supposed to go on a taxpayer paid shopping spree with their spouse and children after a major summit?

The key is to make sure your Wife has her own plane and also one for your ‘photo op’ pets.

Can’t fly together when one wants to go to Hong Kong first, then Bangkok and ‘you’ want to go to Bangkok then Hong Kong.

Wonder it ‘they’ had a 4th plane for the hand servants, distant relatives and ‘little people’?

We know the ‘press’ had the 5th plane.

THESE IDIOT LIBS are suing PDT in MD & DC saying he is breaking the law because Foreign Dignitaries stay in his hotel AND his name on the hotel is an unfair disadvantage to ALL the other hotels etc etc.

OF COURSE,- in the LIB mindset - this is the SAME PDT that the world and Americans despise, so why would they punish good libs by staying in PDTs hotels??

[rlmorel]

That exchange got my attention as well...great answer. Play the hand you are dealt.

Not sure why Trump talked to this slimeball George Clintonoplis. He promised to recuse himself from election coverage after his conflict of interest was revealed - he was a big donor to the Clinton foundation and hosted their meetings - but then he reneged on his promise. Obviously he owes his entire career and fortune to the Clintons.

But Trump knows better than me.

Staphylococcus is still a commie a$$hole.

>> Not a bad interview

Don’t kid yourself. He was likely instructed not to be an a-hole. Disney wants 21Century, and no sense personally agitating the chief of the Executive branch.

[Mears]

Oh,stop it,there are pics of Reagan with his legs crossed——no big deal.

Right. She was looking at me, you know what we were doing? We were talking while we were waiting for the final copy of the document. That was, that was such an innocent picture. You know, we put out that picture. That was put out by my people. That was really a picture of me sitting this way. And I'm waiting for the document so we can final read it. What happened is we had a final document. I wasn't a hundred percent, but I wanted to leave nicely, so we had a document.

Trump's perspective is wayyyy different than what we have been told to believe by the MSM.

I vowed to myself on November 9 2016 Never too watch, listen to a Heathen Liberal for the rest of my Life. So far So Good.

[plain talk]

“So, how many nuclear weapons does South Korea have?”

I had assumed we still had nuclear weapons deployed in SK but that is not the case. Of course we have our subs and other means of protecting SK.

Thanks for your question. It prompted me to find this article describing the history of nuclear weapons in SK

Little Georgie better put some extra glue on those eyebrows.

“I just hope that George is on guard and ready to correct DJT in the event that Trump accidentally refers to himself as a muslim.”

LOL, good one!

I would say, I tune into the other networks, maybe less than three minutes per year... that’s right per year. Glenn Beck? Maybe 60 seconds, per year.

I virtually never tune into Shep Smith.

Right now it’s pretty much Fox Busines, sans Cavuto, and Laura Ingraham. I tape her, and watch with coffee in the AM.

[abb]

...sans Cavuto

Me, too. At Noon when he comes on, I switch back over to CNBC.

I won’t contribute to his ratings by giving him clicks.
