RUSH: In very measured tones, the president is firing howitzers at the media and the Washington establishment. I’ll characterize this later. Let’s just JIP it now to get in here while we can.

In other words, the media’s trying to attack our administration because they know we are following through on pledges that we made, and they’re not happy about it, for whatever reason.

RUSH: He’s really attacked them here before.

THE PRESIDENT: A lot of people aren’t happy with it. In fact, I’ll be in Melbourne, Florida, five o’clock on Saturday —

RUSH: He really launched into them.

THE PRESIDENT: — and I heard — just heard — that the crowds are massive that want to be there. I turned on the TV, opened the newspapers, and I see stories of chaos. Chaos! Yet it is the exact opposite. This administration is running like a fine-tuned machine —

Trump is having a rally in Melbourne, Florida Saturday at 4pm. I just bet that rally will be great!

NY Times is referred by President Trump as the “FAILING NEW YORK TIMES”.

Love it!

President Trump annihilated the lying news media in that press conference , exposed them for the liars they are as no one has before. He should be his own press secretary as nobody compares to Trump

President Trump is one in a trillion

The only one that could have saved America from this socialist debt ridden mess the democrats put us in

Amazing!

President is throwing out ringers and memorable one-liners one after another.

“The Public doesn’t believe you anymore!”

That’s just one of so many I can’t keep count.

I don’t know if this was a good press conference or not. I do know that what I saw today is the very reason I voted for Trump.

My prediction; networks quit live coverage of Trump press conferences. They can only take so much pain...and truth.
