Critics of President Donald Trump saw in his Thursday news conference a combative, thin-skinned chief executive who continues to blame the media for the controversies roiling his administration.
His supporters saw something else: A champion of Middle America who is taking on the establishment and making good on his campaign promises to put the country first. […]
Richelle Kirk of Logan, West Virginia, watched some of Trump’s news conference on Thursday and didn’t see any head-scratching comments from the president. “I back him 100 percent,” said the 42-year-old stay-at-home mom. “You either love it or get out, is my opinion.”
During Barack Obama’s presidency, her husband was laid off from his coal-mining job, a loss they blamed on Obama’s environmental policies. She said they lost a home and “everything we owned.” …

Is there a single Freeper that didn’t like the way Trump talked or acted today????
Holy cow, he absolutely took a hammer to their heads!
bttt
Is AP pulling their collective head out of their hinder?
I am serious as cancer in the throat. This man is blessed and he is pissed off. We have us a bastion of freedom and prosperity FOR ALL AMERICAN TAX PAYERS!!!
He went after fake news, Hillary, CNN, BBC and the liberal mainstream lies like a Pitt Bull.
Trump, you absolutely did us PROUD!
Trump you Magnificent Bastard!
Keep Going!
Feeling a little less panicky today? ;)
Wonderful riposte!
Yes for sure. I don’t like weakness. Not today. He was awesome. He made a mistake on Flynn and he knows it. I want that transcript.Every damned word and then I want prison for those traitors that sent it to our enemies.
I watched most of it. He was very calm, thoughts well organized, and POINT ON. He gave push back with the truth. I loved it. He’s just doing to them what they’ve done to us. They hate it.
This was a masterpiece. Life is fun again.
More like the media hacks are thin-skinned when the truth is spoken against them. This article is of course proof of same.
Fox Business is playing the whole press conference right now 7:00 PST.
For ratings!!
Fox Business seems somewhat sane. Seems like Fox itself, though, is careening into insignificance and a more liberal tone.
Like the FFs, he has given his all ( money, time, family, business, reputation, ALL !) for this nation and her populace. He's unafraid, a fighter, a principled leader; someone this nation had needed for an extremely long time!
All of those, trying to bring him down, want to bring down this nation...destroy it. And anyone who can't/refuses to see this, is nothing but a damned TRAITOR !
Actually, he said that he has a new name for CNN, when Jim Acosta was trying to one up him. “Very Fake News”.. it was epic... And talk about bias.. “Thin-skinned” president. I certainly dont think he is thin skinned. He is just playing the gottcha games the media loves to do and then they retreat behind the “First Amendment”. Its called “Reporting”, guys, not putting your own negative and biased opinions in and so great that he called them on it. Watched 90% of the presser and it was AWESOME!! and this coming from a former reluctant Trump supporter.
SPOT ON!
Glad you got on the Trump Train. :)
He called it too.. That he was very calm, not aggressive but the headlines the next day would be “ranting and raving”.. and while the press conference was going on, CNN’s headlines was “ranting and raving” or something to that effect. He was measured and actually seemed to have a lot of fun doing it.
