Top CNN employees are frustrated. They breathlessly went live to Donald Trumps news conference at his new hotel in Washington D.C., only to wait helplessly as veterans stood up to explain why they support Trump as commander-in-chief. Its hard to imagine this as anything other than a political rick-roll, anchor Jake Tapper said wryly as CNN cut away from the broadcast of the Trump event and asked him to comment.
The Trump campaign signaled that the Republican presidential nominee would address the birther controversy, but the first 20 minutes of the event featured veterans telling the media why they supported Trump.

Media slime balls are throwing a hissy fit because they actually covered the news. The media showed veterans and military people endorsing Trump.
They wanted to present a show where they lied about Trump but instead covered a news story.
The American people got to see how many veterans support and endorse Trump.
The media wanted to carry lies and attacks on Trump.

The BS they spew daily on the radio news and all their biased coverage and they complain when he tricks them into providing straight news coverage.
They have some nerve.

The more the press complains, the more the people who distrust the press (which is a huge majority in this country) cheer for Trump.

They EXPECTED him to come out and sheepishly apologize (for telling the truth) like all the other cowardly establishment RINO’s usually do.
Instead he got a free half-hour commercial covered by ALL the networks

Like I said earlier, if Trump wins (and I think he'll win convincingly), he needs to send cases of Tootsie Pops to every MSM outlet.

Got to love it! Best election ever, and I have watched them all since 1960. Go Trump!

I can’t get this image out of my head of every CNN talking head sitting there with a pie in their face. It’s like a great big three stooges film fest!!
To: detective
I can just hear the media as Trump was being honored by our military hero’s.
“C’mon...C’mon...hurry up, we’re not here to listen to this crap, we want to hear him apologize for the birther stuff”

Here's an idea for the media. Be fair open, objective, non partisan and ethical, and quit trying to manipulate everything...and maybe you will not make fools of yourselves so often.
