President Trump has a message for the 'fake news' media

In a never-ending attack on reporters, President Trump took on a childish rhetoric with 60 Minutes” correspondent Lesley Stahl during an interview that aired on CBS Sunday night.

“In the meantime, I'm President and you're not,” he told Stahl during a seated interview in the White House.

Trump’s “fake news” attack has taken on a more haunting message as more reporters are being killed around the world — as well as the disappearance and likely murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi — but the President has no interest in toning down his hostility.

keeps repeating his lies. Keeps giving him a fucking platform.

Yeah, the media can suck it! There is absolutely no cogent reason for allowing him to pollute our airwaves.

that approximately 1/3 of the nation just blindly follow his “fake news” lies even when they are right there on the tv for them to review!
