Thursday on Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough urged Donald Trump to realize that “the press always wins” in fights withpoliticians. In the same hour, Scarborough criticized an editorial in The Wall Street Journal for not focusing on, what he considered to be, the most important points following former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s resignation.
Scarborough huffed, “Donald Trump has tried to delegitimize the courts…Don't screw with federal judges it never turns out well for you. And the courts won that round. He is trying to delegitimize the press the press has risen up over the past couple of weeks. And as I always say, don't fight the press, the press always wins. Ask Richard Nixon. The press always wins!”

So Joe how well did you presidential picks go?
When the press wins the American people get crushed. Joe is such a good cheerleader for the American people getting further screwed. Nice work, Joe.
Attacking Dan Rather got Bush Senior elected.
I wonder how that ‘free press’ thing is working out in N. Korea, or places like it, (oh a large portion of the world).
Historically, at least since the Greeks realized the propaganda value of theater, information services have been at the beck & call of despots, tyrants, kings, emperors & any other type of authority figure you wish to name.
It is actually easier to believe the media information services are corrupt; than it is to believe they are totally honest
The Slimes just had to evacuate a few floors of their building. Doesn’t sound like winning to me.
Joe the Puppet
Big talk from a guy whose ratings are measured by the occasional show of hands.
It went all in for Hillary and Trump beat Hillary and the left-wing press.
As Trump would say, "unpresidented."
Actually, the NYT is leasing out several floors of their building. They need the cash flow.
Joe and the rest of them are so full of themselves. They would need to be committed to a padded cell if they do not get their way.
How does Old Joe know?
We have never had a President stand up to the press before Trump.
I wonder how many FREEPERS know about Scarboroughs dead girl in office past
The press only wins if they convince a majority of the population, and that translates at the polls. They have a long uphill climb to achieve that.
I watched the whole press conference. It was the most entertaining thing I’ve ever seen. He wasn’t angry, he wasn’t ranting and raving. He was enjoying it. He called on 17 different reporters. He was laughing at them. It made my day.
hey Deliverance boy.....thats when the press bought ink in barrels......old paradigm
They hurt everybody by attacking Trump unfairly and lying about how poorly Hillary was doing, making her supporters complacent. They Screwed Everybody. They are not the solution, they are the problem. People are pretty ‘woke’.
NBC Removes Disgraced Anchor Brian Williams’ Name from ‘Nightly News’
Great! Trump knows that a great offense is the best defense.
GO TRUMP!
