TRUMP: O.K. Well, I just appreciate the meeting and I have great respect for The New York Times. Tremendous respect. It’s very special. Always has been very special. I think I’ve been treated very rough. It’s well out there that I’ve been treated extremely unfairly in a sense, in a true sense. I wouldn’t only complain about The Times. I would say The Times was about the roughest of all. You could make the case The Washington Post was bad, but every once in a while I’d actually get a good article. Not often, Dean, but every once in awhile.
Look, I have great respect for The Times, and I’d like to turn it around. I think it would make the job I am doing much easier. We’re working very hard. We have great people coming in. I think you’ll be very impressed with the names. We’ll be announcing some very shortly.
Everybody wanted to do this. People are giving up tremendous careers in order to be subject to you folks and subject to a lot of other folks. But they’re giving up a lot. I mean some are giving up tremendous businesses in order to sit for four or maybe eight or whatever the period of time is. But I think we’re going to see some tremendous talent, tremendous talent coming in. We have many people for every job. I mean no matter what the job is, we have many incredible people. I think, Reince, you can sort of just confirm that. The quality of the people is very good.
We’re trying very hard to get the best people. Not necessarily people that will be the most politically correct people, because that hasn’t been working. So we have really experts in the field.

“Did you read the interview?”
I read the whole interview. Trump was politely not giving the Slimes any red meat. There were no “I’ve changed my mind on X” moments. Being polite is not being GWB.
Trump defeated the Slimes in the election along with Cankles, the GOPe & the rest of the media. They will cross President Trump at their own peril.
Now go get some hand lotion so your hand wringing won’t give you unsightly callouses.
Trump is too good at this!
Conservatives are getting a lot with Trump if they would stop for a minute and read between the lines.
the exchange makes them sound like little children talking to an adult
“Trump’s running a fool’s errand if he thinks handing an olive branch to them is going to make them want to start being honest.”
Cementjungle is running a fools errand with this post. If you think Trump doesn’t know who & what the Slimes is then you were asleep for the campaign. Trump defeated the Slimes during the campaign & called them out repeatedly, remember?
Sure does. Like children begging an adult not to keep insisting that Santa Clause isn’t real.
Tuesday bump
And I’ll tell you, I believe, and you’ll hear announcements over the next couple of months, but I believe I’ve talked numerous comp — in four-minute conversations with top people — numerous companies that have, leaving, or potentially leaving our country with thousands of jobs.FRIEDMAN: Are you worried, though, that those companies will keep their factories here, but the jobs will be replaced by robots?
TRUMP: They will, and we’ll make the robots too.
And in fact, we have heard announcements in the past week about Ford and Carrier both planning to stay in the U.S. after Trump got done negotiating with them! I'm getting so tired of winning...
