That account is a flat out lie about Trump. I watched the whole thing and am glad the President said what he said. That reporter and another one that tried to defend him are what gives journalism a bad name.

“Frightened, scared,” are the new talking points for the media.

The China-virus-is-racist is not working, so now these truly abysmal cretins are invoking “frightened Americans” of which I know not one.

Can’t we invoke WWII treatment of these traitors?

“...The media are so thin-skinned that they can’t handle a paper cut....”

Their behavior is clear testimony to the caliber of persons that the media attracts and hires. Easily programmed with the agenda of the media itself...

And Pompeo called it the “China Virus”
Womp womp womp
None of the little wilting lotus blossoms in the press room called him on it

According to who pitches and who catches, President Trump ripped his girlfriend/boyfriend.

I noticed that. It was interesting that the fools didn’t try to call him on it.

I saw the confrontation "live" on Fox business channel.

NBC news reporter Peter Alexander was a complete "PLICK" as to "how" he went about posing his question.

Trump referred to NBC, which is owned by Comcast, as "Concast."

“Is it possible that your impulse to put a positive spin on things may be giving Americans a false sense of hope?” Alexander asked.

“What do you say to Americans who are scared, millions who are scared right now?” Alexander asked.

THIS. What kinds of brainless twit could ask these questions consecutively? Which is it, moron? The President is giving Americans hope, albeit you think false hope? Or is Trump not giving people hope, false or otherwise, and they are scared? If Americans have a false sense of hope, why are you saying they are scared? Which is it, jerk, Americans are scared? Or have false hope?

THIS is why the average American DESPISES the MSM.

Then the press and their hurt feelings became a bigger story than this virus. SMH

Does he want POTUS Trump to tell the Public to panic?

I don’t understand the idiotic question.

Peter Alexander was named appropriately by his parents.

I saw it live. We all got to see Peter have a new asshole bored precisely and quickly by the president.

I swear. Reporters are now afraid of President Trump.

They should be if they write propaganda out of thin air, the President is going to expose them in front of the entire nation as frauds.

It only took him about 20 seconds to do Peter Alexander, and the press pool was gasping about it 30 minutes later.

You write falsehoods about The president or his family, the days of anonymity are over, you will feel the sting sooner or later. President Trump WILL expose you
in front of your peers and to the whole nation , as well as naming the network.This was more than a slapdown, it was well deserved payback.

I LOVE IT !

Is this Corona Pandemic just the latest DS/Globalist FF effort to destroy Trump and secure global economic and political control? Trust the Maestro’s instincts even as he battles his supposed ‘trusted’ advisors (Fauci, etc.) who have their own hidden agendas. Is it possible the French scientists, with their published Chloroquine tests, blew the lid off the CDC Chloroquine cover-up. Since the day Trump entered the WH, he has been operating in a den of DS thieves and villains. He needs to obtain his own proven medical personnel to run the tests on Chloroquine or he will never get legitimate results because those that have been betraying him and country for so long have now moved into cover-up mode. However, it will be hard to keep the lid on, because others in the world (French, etc.) won’t let it happen.

The latest memes from the TDS media
The President is giving “ false hope”
The American people are “ scared”

I despise those idiots
*********************************
Yep, I often wonder who makes it up and the location of their “politburo” whence comes their latest “talking points. They always seem to be speaking from the same page.

OrangeHoof :" Only 1/3rd of the questions in the press conference were even relevant. It was sickening.
The media are so thin-skinned that they can’t handle a paper cut."

The press/media got so conditioned to the previous administration not having a press conference, and instead printing a propaganda 'Fact sheet' with all the talking points.
Journalism is basically dead among the spoon-fed reporters.
Alternately, maybe Trump should have a Press Release with no questions afterward; just the presentation.

Charles Payne was on his show by remote this afternoon and made the point that the president needs to limit these briefings to about half an hour w/just the experts, the CV Team and himself and NO PRESS. Just cover the salient points and any important new information. He has concluded the “hostility” of the press during these briefings is driving the markets down in the afternoon. I wholly concur.
