Im making this presentation directly to the American people, the president said, before tellingly adding, with the media present. Like President Barack Obama obsessing over the economic headwinds with which his predecessor burdened him, Trump claimed, I inherited a mess, at home and abroad. He noted the stock markets robust response to his election and industry returning to the Rust Belt.
After this conventional boosterism of his accomplishments and blame for problems on his predecessor, Trump went unconventional. Like a mafia don, the Donald began to take out, by name in some instances, the very outlets that he called to the room for the meeting.
Trump characterized CNNs coverage of him as so much anger and hatred. He recalled CNN passing on debate questions to Hillary Clinton during the Democratic primaries. The networks Jim Acosta retorted, Just for the record, we dont hate you the type of denial that indicts by the necessity of stating it. When a BBC reporter labeled his state-run network impartial, he received a presidential yeah, sure response. I know who you are, Trump informed.
I watched the presser. President Trump didn’t “rant and rave”. Merely, more fake news from the mediots. If anything, the press were angry, insulting and confrontational. President Trump was calm and seemed to be enjoying him self. As usual, the press is whining, angry and distorting of reality. No one with a functioning brain cell believes anything the press says about anything. Hahaha.
Sheesh, the same could be said for sooo many so called reporters. Scott Pelley comes to mind, you can hear the hatred in his voice and the fake crap he spouts can only come from a hate filled spot, because it's so fake.

Nice reference to The Outlaw Josey Wales - The best Western ever.
Trump was great. We have noted your concern.
