Conway to Chuck Todd: ‘We’re Going to Have to Rethink Our Relationship Here’
Breitbart.com ^ | 22 January 2017 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/22/2017 11:07:18 AM PST by Rockitz

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet The Press,” during a very contentious interview, President Donald Trump aide Kellyanne Conway told host Chuck Todd, “We’re going to have to rethink our relationship here,” if he continued to ask why press secretary Sean Spicer told a “falsehood,” about Trump’s inaugural crowd size.

Todd asked, “I’m curious why president trump chose yesterday to send out his press secretary to essentially litigate a provable falsehood when it comes to a small and petty thing like inaugural crowd size. my question to you is why do that?

After her answer Todd again said, “You did not answer the question. ..."

Conway said “Chuck, if we’re going to keep referring to our press secretary in those types of terms, I think we are going to have to rethink our relationship here. I want a great open relationship with our press.”

DC is like 95% democrats, If Obama wouldn’t have set a record with DC swamp leeches something would have been wrong. Those 95% didn’t come out for Trump. Which makes his crowd size all the more remarkable.

With the benefit of 20-20 hindsight, it would have been wonderful if when Trump acknowledged all those in attendance at his inauguration, he made mention of the thousands outside the security gates who were prevented from being able to get in due to the actions of black lives matter.....

We have to make sure it never happens again.

Natural born citizens only from now on like the Constitution requires.
Naturally an American as they could be no other, born here of citizen parents.
Solely an American.
Children of foreign nationals inherit the foreign nationality of their parents, even if they are born citizens here, and even if they never choose to act on that.

No foreign birth.
No foreign parent(s)
No foreign citizenship(s)
Obama should be proof enough to anyone of the wisdom of the founders when they tried to prevent him from being President by including the natural born citizen requirement.

It amazes me how many people, even here on FreeRepublic are willing to ignore the protections of that requirement and undermine the Constitution just so their favorite ineligible can run.

Actually, she did not answer the question. Here’s the correct answer:
1. With photoshop etc you really can’t trust this kind of claim.
2. But say the photos do, in fact, show the mall at the equivalent times, that is, if we’re comparing apples to apples, consider this: DC is practically all Democrat and all black. Of course there would be more locals turning out for Obama.
3. Typically Trump’s supporters, many of whom live in flyover country, cannot afford thousands of dollars to fly to D.C. and stay in hotels, which jack up prices for the event. To wit, it’s the Democrats who are the party of the rich, contrary to popular opinion.
4. Some Trump supporters who wanted to come with their families were intimidated by leftist and anarchist threats of violence - typical Brownshirt tactics - and thought it more prudent to stay away.
5. Some of these miscreants did in fact physically prevent a number of would-be attendees from making their way to the venue.
6. Finally, why are you asking me such an asinine question? Ask me something not based on fake news, something meaningful to this country. If you can’t do that now or in the future, I’m going to have to rethink our relationship.

There. I feel much better.

I’m not sure why she never asked Chuckie why he showed an early morning photo as his proof of low attendance.

Also, lot of that white space was rooftops that didn’t exist at the 2009 inauguration. People were also inside those structures.

The leftist media want to control the information that “We the People” receive. They want us to believe that the cultural marxists Democrats views and events are true American values, when in truth they are NOT. They are the minority. We have a duty to put them down when they lie.

That is why we love President Trump!

They have oppressed us long enough. You are done oppressing up with fake news!

DC metro has the 4th largest black population in the entire country - well over a million.

I finally found the picture I have been looking for, but don’t know how to post it, could you?

The reason the crowd is spread back up the streets on either side was we did not have a permit for the mall and we are law-abiding.

Well, I don’t think that many of us really realized that was a “thing” until we realized Cruz, Rubio, Jindal... none of them were eligible. I didn’t realize it was that important, but on certain crucial points, the newcomers go wobbly.

He did not have to call either of them a liar. Everyone with the intelligence to get out of the rain already knows that they are liars.

“The MSM is despicable.”

They are part and parcel of the globalist New World Order crowd. They are fully complicit in pumping out the latest talking points propaganda given to them from the ultra-wealthy, power hungry, global disciples of the Evil One. They utilize the tactics outlined in the book Rules for Radicals to the fullest extent possible, a book BTW, that the author dedicated to Satan. The MSM and Hollywood, to an enormous degree, is responsible for the division our nation finds itself in right now, by proclaiming the ‘good is evil’, ‘evil is good’, and the Truth is a lie, by continuously spewing their garbage upon the more impressionable adults and the youth of our society. The only solace I find in what they are knowingly doing, is that they WILL be held accountable for their actions. If not now, while still drawing breath, then certainly later, as account is taken of their lives by our Creator. Hopefully Trump and all those in his cabinet will continue to be given the strength and wisdom to speak truth in the face of these self important liars. May God’s blessings be upon them.

I don’t know how to post pictures, but this shows how big the crowd was. The reason the crowd is stretched out to the side streets is that we did not have a permit for the mall, another group did and we are law-abiding.
We also left the place cleaner than we found it.

The crowd thing is kind of petty.
Who cares?

The way I see it:

The crowd size isn't the central issue with Trump.

The media bias and manipulation is the issue.

He is just using the biased reporting of the crowd size and the lie about the MLK bust as an opportunity to draw a Red Line.

If (when) the media crosses the Red Line Trump won't run to them sniveling like Obama did.

I was ther too! An IU professor said 1.6 million of us.I have that picture, Freedomworks sold them. I think it was Tom Price that took the photographer up in the capitol.It was an amazing experience to be there. The traffic cams on Pennsylvania ave counted 465,000 people passed through and it wasn’t the only way in.

No, it isn't.

Trump is stopping them at the dinner roll.

When you are trying to civilize a brat you do not let them get away with things because they are "petty" in the eyes of the ignorant. You firmly correct their behavior every time. Otherwise they become confused and think that lying is ok, throwing their toys is ok, hitting people on the head is ok, shooting people is ok and so on and so forth.

Good leaders know this, bad leaders end up wringing their hands and moaning, "Where did I go wrong?"
