Davos Foreign Press Boos After Donald Trump Slams ‘Vicious’ Fake News
breitbart ^ | CHARLIE SPIERING

Posted on 01/26/2018 9:26:30 AM PST by davikkm

President Donald Trump again criticized the news media, but this time in Davos, Switzerland, at the World Economic Forum. “It wasn’t until I became a politician that I realized how nasty, how mean, how vicious, and how fake the press can be,” Trump said, as some in the audience booed.

He joked that the cameras were “going off in the back” after his comment. One reporter in the room noted that foreign journalists joined the boos from people in the audience.

Trump said he used to get great press from the media when he was a celebrity businessman but that reporters turned on him when he ran for president.

He commented that the fake news didn’t stop him from being president.

“Somebody said, ‘They couldn’t have been that bad because here we are; we’re president,’” Trump said, praising his team for doing a great job for the country.

This supposed booing was not impressive at all, plus I think some people were laughing at the same time at Trump’s comments. They’re trying to make a mountain out of a molehill, as usual.

Gee, maybe those who booed Trumps fake news comments are the actual owners of the MSM that continually spews fake news. Ya think?

Boos? I was watching that event live on the interwebs. I heard ZERO boos.

I *did* hear massive applause as he thanked the crowd and left.

I don't know either.

But it is a good thing when the globalists, communists, socialists and progressive One World Order folks head for the exits. Good riddance.

That means you're hitting a nerve.

And Trump is very good at hitting a nerve and making it hurt.

I noted them at the time. It was very soft compared to the rest of the sound level so seemed to be coming from the back of the room. But the speech was given no applause during Trump talking, so it stood out.

The globalist, corporate media are nothing more than trained, clapping seals, doing the bidding of their globalist overlords.

I heard the applause, which was MUCH louder than the soft boos I heard when he mentioned the fake news. If they hadn’t WANTED to make a big deal of those small boos, it was hardly noticeable.

It was on live at 8:00 AM EST. It was 15 min. long and can be found on YouTube. It was excellent and well received.

Were they booing the media or Trump? He did get a standing ovation after his speech.

As soon as Trump mentioned the fake news they booed in agreement...

or it was the press booing the president which proves the point he just made.

The questions he answered are at the end. Probably his best speech ever!

It was so soft I didn’t think it was much of the audience, if any. I assumed it was the media in the back of the room booing. The people who say they didn’t hear it are giving the right impression that it was soft.

I had a job out of town but listened live on XM FBN.

It was a good speech. The union goons in the USA are going nuts.
