I’ve hated CNN since prior to 1997. I especially hated it after GWB got elected. They have always been filthy leftist liars. I look forward to their permanent demise.

We’ve hated the MSM for decades.
This is just first time we have had a politician who doesn’t collapse like wet toilet paper when the press goes after him.

Oh Frida, it’s a simple matter of the law. Did you not read the President’s tweet? How is it that the President of the United States can call CNN an enemy of the American people?

Hint: Because he has proof.

After the press conference the other day, I remarked on how Donald Trump sounded like one of us, and a fellow Freeper said this:

"...Some in a position to know say that Trump’s close advisors have been reading FR for a long time. It’s not a coincidence that our concerns, including our bitter dislike of the MSM and the GOPe, is reflected in DT..."

I don't know if that is true or not, but even the possibility...that fills me with hope.

How old is Frida? Because he/she/it doesn’t sound quite grown up.

Americans have known for decades that those portraying themselves to be reporters and journalists are liars.

It’s not a ‘Trump’ thing Frida. He’s just the first to come along and punch back, and your heroes at CNN and elsewhere hate that he fights back.

Isn’t Frida the CNN reporter wearing the diaper, over there in the cage?

I don’t know if that is true, but Steve Bannon is 100% Freeper in spirit. He shares almost all the concerns we have, the distrust of insiders, the media, and above all, he has read “Rules for Radicals” and is one of the few people since Lee Atwater to get it.

The self-importance disease these people have is boundless.

We hated the lying media long before Trump.

Finally we have a president who represents us and articulates our outrage.

Why The Media Wants You to Hate Trump

If you watched the CNN press coverage of the elections last fall you might be forgiven for concluding that the most urgent problem facing America is Donald Trump. But after manufacturing fakes news for years and even leaking debate questions to Hillary Clinton it is clear the prissy drama queens that call themselves the press corp are beginning to realizes they might not get to sit with the cool kids in the high school cafeteria anymore. Worse than that they will have to revert to their former lives as band geeks and year book editors.

Trump is being quite restrained in his response to the lying leftist media.

I want for the White House press briefings to become reporter roasts. Force the reporters to defend their lies, spin, and biased story selection. Do it again, and again, and again.

It's hard to believe, but there are still people who live inside the mainstream media's leftist propaganda bubble.

Pop that bubble.

I watched an interview Stephen Miller had with Stephanopoulis, and boy, Miller is DEFINITELY someone on Trump’s team who gets it as well!

Watching Trump’s press conference the other day, I had a solid grin pasted on my face the entire time!
