President Donald Trump fired off a laundry list of grievances at his daily White House press conference with the coronavirus task force Saturday, bashing Rep. Adam Schiff, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, former Vice President Joe Biden, and the Ukraine whistleblower.
The wild diatribe was kicked off by a reporter asking Trump about his firing of Michael Atkinson, the intelligence community inspector general who told Congress about the whistleblower complaint regarding Trump’s phone call with Ukraine, ultimately leading to his impeachment.
“I thought he did a terrible job,” Trump said. “Absolutely terrible.”
Trump proceeded to falsely claim the Ukraine whistleblower report was “fake” and “made up.” He eventually got around to suggesting that Schiff was “the informer” for the whistleblower, calling the California Democrat a “corrupt politician.”
“That man is a disgrace to IG’s,” Trump added of Atkinson. When he was asked another question about the IG, Trump again called the whistleblower “fake,” adding, “Somebody oughta sue his ass off.”

Maybe, just maybe, Trump will finally go Pinochet on them? Dare we hope?
The best part of the presser, he was asked about a tweet from Biden. He says “Biden didn’t write that. Biden doesnt write. Biden doesnt know what’s going on. Other people wrote that for him. Next question.”
I started laughing, he totally dismissed Biden, like, you really expect me to respond to crap written for an idiot? Not happening.
"The wild diatribe [??? emphasis added] was kicked off by a reporter asking Trump about his firing of Michael Atkinson, […]"
I watched a good part of video. There was no wild diatribe by PDJT as Mediaite article author McLaughlin has falsely claimed imo. PDJT used his usual hand/arm gestures to keep reporter who had asked questions from interrupting his explanation.
Send "Orange Man Bad" Democrats and RINOs home in November!
MAGA, also KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)
Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping COVID-19 will effectively give fast-working Trump a third term in office imo.
Trump should appear at the next presser dressed in a Pinochet uniform. The reporters' heads would spin right off their necks. They'd have to call the hazmat team to clean up the mess.
And there’s Chanel Rion hanging out in the back and none of the men in the White House Press Corpse (Obama’s spelling) will get up and give her a seat.

Like that’s a bad thing ?
You only win lawsuits like the ones proposed when the accused isn’t telling the truth. They would lose them all.
I would suggest the coup participants be hanged...on the wdc mall...and left to rot.
I think every reporter in the WH press pool should have to give his/her name and name of employer before every question they ask. No matter how long they’ve been part of the WH press corps or whether they’ve been called on previously that day.
The People deserve to know who these miscreants are and who they work for.
Snarky questions would result in being told to leave instantly, & no press pass for the next month. If it happened a second NO press pass ever again! F these assholes already!
Treat them like 2nd grade brat children
I got the real sense today, more than I have from recent pressers, that the President is now setting the stage toward re-opening the country.

I could go for that!!!
Mediate is pure sh*t.
You do understand that it was PDJT who said "someone should sue his ass off" don't you? It's not really clear from your statement. He was speaking of Ciaramella.
Oops, I read it as the sleazebags wanted to sue the President for slander.
No problem. Poorly written article from Progressive propagandists. I didn’t read beyond the excerpt but I did see the WH briefing today. I hooted and hollered when Trump said that. :)
Who the Hell is “mediate.com”?
