President-elect Donald Trump holds a news conference, his first since winning the 2016 election.

David Shulkin MD is the current Under Secretary of Health for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

He was nominated by President Obama on March 18, 2015 to serve as the Undersecretary of Health and confirmed by the U.S. Senate in June 2015

Press:

Scandal. Russia. Russia. Russia. Putin. Scandal. Russia Russia!

ZZZZZZ.

[Yaelle]

A disgrace the info would be let out. Fake news, phony stuff, opponents... sick people put that graph together.

(Me: what graph?)

[sheikdetailfeather]

“Sick people got together and reported this fake news...”

[toldyou]

“The Clintons have murdered more people than Putin, should they be named as war criminals?”

I’ll bet Tillerson wanted to say that!

[pnz1]

Oh my word, he said “crap” /s

[SamAdams76]

Are you serious? You really think Trump is grand-standing by acknowledging he is the President-Elect?

[Not A Snowbird]

The President-Elect said “crap” on TV! Congressional investigation!

[dfwgator]

"It's always Russia Russia Russia!"

[pnz1]

Crap not graph is what I heard..

[datricker]

“We’ve got much hacking going on”

[TomGuy]

Very disappointed Trump caved to the pretentious grand-standing of Uhbama with the podium - “Office of the President-Elect”.

I take it as a jab at Obama, since he was the first to ever use it. Recall how Obama called Trump out at some dinner and proclaimed 'I am the president'. Then the mic drop thing.

[Yaelle]

Oh ok thx

[GizzyGirl]

Today is incredible, RSBN has 42k viewers watching Trump even though this is on TV everywhere!

[Yaelle]

What did PEDO-sta say about Hillary??

[GOPJ]

Tillerson is an extremely qualified nominee.

Tillerson's impressive - you're right Dave. And little Marco - he came across as an out of control hothead. Unprofessional is spot on.

[BigEdLB]

Wikipedia already has it on Shulkin’s page

[maggief]

Who did Trump just wave off?

[Enlightened1]

Trump is talking about what was IN THE EMAILS about Podesta and Hillary.

YOU KNOW... the media hates that.

Go Trump!
