That’s it. You convinced me. Let’s get Hillary sworn in on the 20th instead.

Notice the sign on the podium:

The Office of the President Elect

I did notice that, and commented that I hadn’t seen it since Obummers first win. Not sure I’m happy he brought it back.

Not that she is no longer SoS, however, this sets up Trump to come with clean hands and prosecute her for it.

He has set the example.”

Good points. Trump is a master strategist.

His refusal to answer the CNN reporter is AWESOME! I think it was a great teaching moment for ALL reporters and they understand they play fair or they get no access.

Stupid CNN mediabot should have taken a lesson from Jorge Ramos of Univision. Recall that Trump had his security throw the bum out of one of his press conferences during the primary.

He's putting the whole leftstream media on notice that he will not be trifled with.

One way or the other, I hope illary gets brought up on criminal charges .

There’s still those state F B I investigations going on.

I couldn’t listen any more. No substantive thoughts, just empty rhetoric.

How have you been here for eight years and remained so stupid?

Miss Marmelstein, I completely understand your pain. This press briefing has been an eye-opener; a truly jump for joy hour of power from the President-Elect. Glad I was able to consume the whole of it in one sitting.

They didn’t make George Wasthington sell Mount Vernon, did they?

His lawyer mentioned Nelson Rockefeller was in a similar position and I don't remember all the hand wringing we see today.

Dude was badass and hilarious shutting down the ass hat reporters and calling them outright “fakenews organization”.

They went at it on air in front of all America and Trump bested him.

Too damned funny!!!

To: Pravious

you stated it wrong. Trump said all profits. that means the excess over costs for the specific negotiated room with a foreign government

This is specifically directed at the Post Office Hotel on Pennsylvania Ave where apparently many governments have snapped up rooms.

It might apply to a hotel in say Chicago but is mostly the Post Office Hotel

I suspect the OOPE doo is a very sharp dig at 0bamao and the presstitutes who must face that podium plaque-staring them in their jaundiced eyes-and reminding them that Trump won.

Visual propaganda and a middle finger to them.

President Trump is talking about REPEAL and REPLACE Obamacare.

I think he was talking directly to the weak kneed congress on this one.

He backhanded Carl Cameron pretty good with having to tell how big his crowds were.

"Twenty-five, thirty thousand people shouting, Mexico!!"
