haphazardly

I really doubt Mr. Trump used the word "haphazardly" to describe his interactions with international leaders.

[Sasparilla]

Ignorance from the propaganda arm of the DNC.

[HiTech RedNeck]

That’s the media spin, meaning prolly something like Donald didn’t heed their ideas of the proper way to do it.

Throughout the campaign, the MSM repeatedly informed us that Trump’s campaign was “in chaos,” or “in turmoil,” or “melting down,” or “off message,” yet he won. Why should anyone take seriously the crap coming from the NYT in particular or the MSM in general?

HOLEEF*CK I AM GETTING ANNOYED WITH THIS

“He received phone calls from world leaders BUT HE DIDNT DO IT THE *RIGHT* WAY so there he's just awful...”

You can just picture them stomping their feet as they say this stuff.

He didn't. That was the NYT description.

[catnipman]

A surprisingly informative and balanced NYT article!

[Not A Snowbird]

The way they worded the sentence made it seem like he had used that word, not them.

[Wolfie]

These are the same people who said the campaign was in disarray and Trump had no path to victory. So, yeah, complete BS.

Last night's ABC Evening NEWS made it sound like everything in the Trump world was a crisis and falling apart. A consistent message from the media types; inaccurate and very hopeful of failure.

I am waiting for updates of how many empty alcohol bottles, pill bottles, and broken lamps are being hauled from the Clinton place every day. I guess the mean media is spending so much time and effort covering Trump's impending failure they don't have time for Hillary. At least she has Bill to provide comfort in her time of need.

IN 1 week the idiot liberals think everything should be settled. Liberals are petulant children.

Chinese officials put out a statement that in their talk W/ President Trump, he was “diplomatically perfect.”

[Jack Hammer]

Despite its revent spate of apologies and expressions of wishes to start over on a more honest footing after its endless notorious lies during the campaign, the NYT lies again to take a gratuitous slap at Trump.

Clearly the owners and editors are determined to make this rag into nothing more than Manhattan birdcage liner.

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks!

[AFreeBird]

Yea, and Trump went out to have dinner with his family, and he didn’t tell us! Waaaaa!

[YogicCowboy]

Elsewhere in all the news that is fit to print:

Donald Trump consistently ties his shoelaces in a haphazard way, in great contrast to the perfectly-creased and double-tied shoelaces that have been a hallmark of the Obama Administration.

A spokesperson for Team Trump has asserted that they will be looking into better ways for the President-Elect to guarantee that his shoes do not come off at a critical juncture during affairs of state after he formally takes office.

Lindsey Graham expressed his doubt that things will improve upon Donald Trump’s assumption of office.

haphazardly
Right. They call it haphazard. i.e., did not go through all the bureaucratic redtape. Just picked up the phone and had the calls put through. Get it done. I saw a report that his style is to make many (forget the number) calls each day, and have many 15 minute meetings.
