“From my own perspective,” she added, “it’s great to hit the reset button.”
Still, the encounter crystallized concerns that Mr. Trump, emboldened by his victory, may refuse to abide the traditional dynamic of a president and the journalists who cover him, a naturally adversarial relationship that is nevertheless based on some level of mutual trust."
Trump should never trust the media. They are not trustworthy.
It is great that Trump refuses to passively accept the continual lies and attacks from the media.
There is nothing Trump can do that will please the media. Appeasement will not work.
How come 0bama never had the “naturally adversarial relationship” that the author speaks of. All he had was a bunch of fawning ass-kissers.
I love that Trump is staying in NYC. He has access to media, finance, business, arts...changes Presidential dynamics. He can use the White House like his office.
The Constitution requires the President "from time to time" to address Congress about the affairs of state.
Nothing more is stipulated.
Trump therefore should kick the press out of the White House entirely, and restore the proper relationship of the media as free but subservient to the people and not a driving force or opinion or policy.
Ever since Nixon was pushed around by the press we have had a sort of rivalry between them and the POTUS in leading public opinion.
Sick and inappropriate relationship.
Trump will put them back in their proper places, which is one of much reduced status from what we are used to.
What was *not* reported, by another unnamed source, that President Trump offered a one-way flight on TrumpOne for any, in the room, who still wanted to leave America, gratis.
Two hours ago, DJT tweeted that he has cancelled the NYT meeting today because they changed the terms and conditions.

The replies under this tweet are almost unanimously anti-Trump and nasty and rude! I wish some supporters would get over there and add supportive comments. I just added mine.
Adversarial relationship? You mean like the “adversarial” relationship they had wth the messiah and hitlery?
I would have paid money to watch the look on little Georgie Stephanopolous’ face. He is so in love with the Clintons that he cannot see straight.
He may have a mental breakdown in the next 4 years.
