Trump wins, press whines
If you want to understand how Trump won, you have to start with one glaringly obvious fact. He is an absolute master when it comes to manipulating the media. His ability to play the biased, mainstream, press generated millions of dollars’ worth of free airtime, deflected scandals, probably clinched the primaries, and went a long way toward forever burying the spectre of a Hillary Clinton presidency.
Guess what. He’s still doing it.
Boy, did I miss it. Trump is using that crowd size issue to distract the media. “Oh, look shiny things.” and off goes the media.
Trump’s brilliant and I think he does it on purpose. The press is like a cat. You put up that shiny item and they paw at it while the dog goes and eats all the food....lol.
Vote fraud investigations and laws against fraud need to be pressed and prosecuted.
I’m watching Sean Spicer on Fox Biz now... my God, he’s terrible!!! He is allowing the press to walk all over him, and not shutting them down when asking stupid questions.
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Let’s keep this on the low down.
Trump is DISMANTLING Obama and his legacy and the Presstitutes are distracted by nothing story after nothing story.
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Spicer needs to tell the press TO STFU on the issue of votes and the questions will no longer be entertained.
I’m watching today’s briefing with Spicer right now and those imbeciles from the MSM are doing exactly that—perseverating on crowd size and vote count.
John Roberts from Fox asked an actual question.
Trump is focused on “getting stuff done”.
The media is focused on “the narrative”.
In the end, stuff done in the real world carries more weight, and hot air carries less weight.
Sadly the meeting with the Union bosses went totally unreported since the Media was able to focus on these unimportant issues because Spicer and Trump moved the stories forward. They need to learn not to cover over important stories by getting engaged in a sideshow.
I think a simple “Any questions about vote fraud in the 2016 election will result in the questioner not being admitted to any more briefings. - period”.
probably the best approach would be to say something along the lines of
“Listen, the left lost badly, and they are going to stew and stew and stew about it for years- they are going to try to undermine my presidency with the most ridiculous, most outrageous, most petty accusations possible- why? because they can’t accept that they lost- instead of getting behind us and trying to make America great again- they are determined to try to drag us back into the failed obama legacy that got us in all this trouble in the first place- It’s to be expected- they are sore losers, and they, the media I mean, are a completely biased organization that will never get behind a republican president even if it means helping the country out by doing so- That is the very reason why I won so bigly- Because people are sick and tired of a whiny little immoral press agency that would rather see this country fail than to support a republican president and help him accomplish his goals- but boy howdy will they help a democrat one do so- like we witnessed the last 8 years- Wow! Talk about media bias!
Well- I’m hear to tell you- those days are over- either get on board, or get left behind as irrelevant- the people have had enough- it’s time for the msm to wake up and smell the coffee- We’re onto you! you’re either with us or against this country and the majority opinion- What will it be?”
Well, something like that anyway-
Wonderful analysis
Are we watching the same thing? Sean is doing excellent.
Sorry but this is smart. Trump is going to have the left begging for voter ID and they’re going to think it’s their idea. hahahahahahahaha
Spicer berated them yesterday for their persistent attempts to oppose the Trump administration. Well, that sure didn’t catch, since they persisted on trying to nail Trump on his comments about “voter fraud,” even after Spicer told them he’d already answered the question.
Nice to see the media so suddenly aghast at the prospect that millions of people might have voted illegally (as if that doesn’t help their allies, the anti-American RATS). What a joke. Trump should respond by having Congress pass laws requiring proof of citizenship in order to vote. Problem solved, and the media will be happy, right?
Disagree. Listening to Rus and he just played Mara Liasson asking a question and then interrupting and interrupting. Spicer should tell them, if they interrupt his answer he will just go on to the next question.
Ah! You beat me by about 45 seconds :-)
What I find so interesting is that as they see his tweets and think they are pressing his buttons, he is actually pressing theirs.
