I read the Post daily so I can pretty much take its pulse.

Trump did say he would send them all back, the first time he included this in a speech. I think since then he has realized you can’t sent true refugees back, not if you don’t want to be perceived as heartless. He has changed it to vetting.

I feel confident that the right measures will be taken

I love buttermilk and corn bread. Grew up drinking starter milk which is left over from making cheese. I grew up on farms so grew our own fruit, veggies, beef, pork, chickens and eggs. It was very hard work but boy, did it all taste wonderful in the winter. We would can plums in jars. I had a cousin who would get a jar of plums and salt shaker and eat the whole jar. Precious memories. She is gone now as are her 2 sisters. They all died from cancer. Thanks.

Who said complain? He was setting the ground rules. Probably letting them know that their unprofessional sensationalism is creating a bad and dangerous environment. Probably said ‘my wife better not be disrespected either’.

There was nothing childish or petulant about this. It is a well deserved settling of scores. This would only offend delicate snowflakes. I also think Trump is Andrew Jackson to a tee.

So the media leaks the off-record meeting, and the public cheers for Trump wire-brushing their arrogance. Looking for sympathy and understanding all the progressive left and corporate media is going to get is this from us ... Let the butt hurt flow through you USA

all he did was p!ss the whiners off.

I don't think that was all he did. He has also served notice that they will be excluded from his press conferences if they continue to lie.

This is quite serious business, since it is media distortion that has caused all the hate among those who didn't vote for him. They are endangering everyone, Trump and all associated with him, and have to be stopped. Short of making rioting a more serious felony, it was the best we can hope for right now.

You can use the law, but not to directly force content. Some things we should be pushing:

-Cable freedom: allowing folks to pay only for the channels they want to subscribe to

- Using antitrust laws to break up the media conglomerates.

- Defund PBS.

- Make FCC TV and radio licenses for a limited time and resell them or lottery them off.

- Allow digital posting of legal notices instead of requiring physical publication. Sort of like how they do with tenders.

I’ve been u see the assumption for many months that he said ‘extreme vetting’ for all countries. And if someone comes from a country which can not be vetted properly or countries that sponsor terrorism, they will not come in. This has been said for many months and also on his campaign site

WHY would the media admit to being scolded? You’d think they’d want to save face.

Because they KNOW that Trump has the TRUTH

Either from memory, an assistant taking notes or a audio /video recording.

maybe an assistant sitting there...serving coffee and cake while operating a periscope device.....then the video / audio ...or just a few short clips gets leaked,...

Remember the leaked audio tape from 20 years ago that had Trump imitating a personal assistant...

(If you want to see how he does it using the Thatch Weave...ping me)

Notice it was only a short time later that Trump put out a 2.5 minute video on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube updating America on his policy plans for the first 100 days. I think it was a not too subtle reminder to the chastised media that he can, and will go around them. Why he can even win the Presidency this way lol.

Trump called them liars for 18 months about everyday he had rallies.

Yes, but that was directed at a traveling press pool back in the cheap seats. This is face to face with the head honchos in an enclosed space. I don't buy it that it went down this way, although I don't doubt there was acrimony.

I'll have to check out that video.

I would love it if he announced plans to form a new network that he will be available to 24 hours a day. An NPR for the majority.
