Any time a reporter asks shithead a question he doesn't like,

[raccoon]

He attacks him/ her, saying they’re “nasty” or “ought to be ashamed of yourself.

Thank goodness for the reporters with the integrity to ask questions that are uncomfortable for HIM. They are in The league with Woodward and Bernstein.

1. I wish Helen Thomas was still with us. Trump is

Last edited Sat Apr 4, 2020, 07:40 PM - Edit history (1)

so desperate for attention now that there are no rallies. Helen would have asked him about that.

[maddiemom]

19. EXACTLY what I was thinking the other day. She's sorely missed.

[Rebl2]

32. Me too

[CaptYossarian]

29. Another one was Sam Donaldson.

[Ptah]

44. Or Helen Thomas

[livetohike]

49. Oh brother. Going to go edit now. Thanks!

From someone who should know better.

[Skittles]

46. how I loved her

she answered emails too....she responded to a fan email I sent her

[livetohike]

50. That would be just like her I think. Remember when we

sent her all of those roses? She was one of a kind.

[Skittles]

53. oh yes I do

she was tickled pink

[kentuck]

2. He never lets them complete their question ??

Especially if it is one that he doesn't like the direction it is going.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

38. What I learned in J-School:

Journalism 101:

1. If they don't want you to print it, it's news.

2. If they do want you to print it, it's propaganda.

[kentuck]

39. Yep.

a good rule to remember.

[Walleye]

3. I expect him to stamp his little feet and start crying.

How can anybody respect this baby who never grew to be a man

[Scarsdale]

4. These mini-rallies should not be

given air time. Waste of time, nothing new is revealed. Same old, same old. On the other hand they DO show "him" at his worst, insulting, bloviating, lying his arse off. This whole family seems to think they are not only highly intelligent (they are NOT) but also photogenic (also not true). Yet, here they are running the country. The gop stands by silently, while all the destruction continues. The gop OWNS this mess. They prove once again that they are incapable of leading this country. They do their dirty work behind the scenes, and send out the orange mess to prance for us. Now we have little Jared, who thinks since his daddy bought him a place at Harvard, that he has to be smart!! He reads, so tRump thinks he must be smart. What a total mess the gop has caused this time. I guess 9/11 did not kill enough people to satisfy them. Well, now they have outdone themselves by not stopping this supremely stupid man and his entire family who are now running the country (into the ground)

[Walleye]

5. Jared is even dumber than I thought. So much lying bullshit from the presidential podium.

[True Blue American]

9. Jared has the same plastic face Ivanka does.

Wonder if they shared Surgeons?

[Totally Tunsie]

40. They went to the same finishing school for their voice-speak also.

Nothing more than manufactured Kens and Barbies.

[CaptYossarian]

30. I'm picturing Sonny Drysdale from the Beverly Hillbillies.

Rich, spoiled, immature, and never met with reality.

[Mersky]

6. Yeah, because he's an abusive control freak

Last edited Sat Apr 4, 2020, 01:42 PM - Edit history (1)

Is the high arc of his gaslighting displays every time he flips a question over to an opportunity to shame and insult anyone who dare ask him a rational question that needs answering for the public good and/or gets at his maladministration.

I don’t know how reporters are putting up with it, but imo, their pointed questions are one of the best checks we have on him. To them I say, keep up the good fight.

[True Blue American]

8. They are doing us

A favor. Exposing his lies and incompetence every day. I do not want them to stop. Expose his lies over and over.

[True Blue American]

7. Trump was furious

When he cut short his daily SS. Alexander exposed him. He fumed until late at night then spitefully fired the IG!

Thanks to the poster who saw my mistake!

[gab13by13]

10. If only he had fired the AG,

he fired the IG, but I get your point.

[True Blue American]

12. Sorry! Will change!:)

Am so angry this morning I can’t think straight!

Trump is killing people, the profiteering is horrendous.

Other Countries are now accusing us of stealing by over bidding!

When is it going to end? I am too old for this!

[bdamomma]

20. Well for us here

we know what's going on regarding his profiteering I only wish more would see what's happening. Our Medical professionals should not be pleading for medical supplies. tRump did give or sell China our stockpile away, and now China wants to send back the supplies for a price. So many underhanded things are going on and Americans are dying for this recklessness.

We have criminals/murderers ruining our fragile government.

I soon think our fear will become insurmountable anger with just cause.

[True Blue American]

21. Mine is already there!

Who knew normal people could feel such anger!

[bdamomma]

25. So the next queston is

how do we channel our anger into action? should we start calling news networks and tell them we do not want to see or hear the mad king? or call our useless (some not all) of our Congress people? Or call and say where are our Test kits???, or give our medical professionals the equipment they need?

just some suggestions.

[True Blue American]

27. Anything we can do to

Get rid of those who are useless in Government.

[bdamomma]

11. I wish

those reporters would just turn his answer on him, if he says their question was "nasty" say he is nasty. Or you can't answer the question.

They need to be more aggressive with this bully. Take him down.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. Don't forget he got rid of the more agressive press pool members

As much as I love a lot of them, they don't seem to have the sharp and assertive skills (like a Sam Donaldson or Dan Rather). They don't seem to have rebuttal facts ready and waiting. That said, Trump's got their mics turned down and he just controls but talking louder.

[Chainfire]

13. In a perfect world

When Trump dismisses a tough question, the next reporter should stand and ask Trump to answer the previous question until he got so frustrated he would shut down the press conference and walk out.

Reporters are still playing by normal rules, remaining civil, respectful and subservient. They need to be getting in Trump's face. Sure, it will cost them, but they would be heroes in many eyes. Reporter's jobs are to ask the hard questions, the President's job is to answer the questions truthfully and to the best of his ability. If those aren't the rules, then it is not a press conference, but a political show, and the reporters should walk out and leave Trump to play with himself. Reporters are just enabling Trump; if he is going to keep up these campaign rallies , let him do it exclusively on the Fox Propaganda Network.

I would love to see a reporter being dragged out of one of the "press conferences" kicking, fighting and screaming his or her question. What an inspiring moment that would be. I think it would raise the morale of at least half the country in these trying times.

It is time to quit being polite to the monster.

[ALBliberal]

18. I absolutely love this. All of it start to finish.

[kacekwl]

24. You are exactly correct. The time

for being polite should have ended in January 2017.

[Lonestarblue]

14. Could someone explain why MSNBC is still broadcasting his daily propaganda show?

CNN stopped broadcasting, as did my local affiliates of the three major TV networks. I think PBS still broadcasts his unreality show, but I’m surprised that MSNBC hasn’t dropped it. Of course, it does usually start during Chuck Todd’s show, though he seems to be less an apologist these days.

[bdamomma]

22. here is

the contact number for MSNBC ask for comment line.

We do not need to hear his lies anymore, plus he will keep on lying cause he only believes his ratings are going up. Drag him down cause he is dragging us down to the point of death.

1 212 664 4444 Contact number

[Lonestarblue]

37. Thank you!

[True Blue American]

41. I called!

Nicolle is not having it. I doubt my phone call is responsible!

[bdamomma]

42. Just everyone

keep on calling. We need to fight back in anyway we can.

[uponit7771]

47. To hear from Fauci, that's it .. Dr Birx has been compromised since she wont show the model data

[underpants]

54. I watch it on CNN

They have cut away but they always come back for the questions

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. The next reporter should ask the same question, keep it going on down the line until he blows up.

[bdamomma]

17. The reporters

need to be more aggressive, to keep on needling him until he blows up. Let him have a meltdown.

tRump always plays himself as being a victim.

[bluestarone]

35. Would love this

PLEASE PLEASE let it happen!!!

[True Blue American]

23. Trump was so angry at Alexander he stormed

Off, fumed for hours, then decided on his next victim, the IG. He is running out of victims, no one wants to work for him. The dregs are getting worse.

Also, it keep in mind his massive loans are coming due, no US bank will loan him money,properties shut down.

This is on top of his incompetence.

Lord, even Smerconish is turning on him! Great Commentary!

[Generic Brad]

26. Reporters should band together and egg him into losing it

I know they are too professional to do it, but these are the type of questions I would like to see him peppered with:

"Were you dropped on your head as an infant?"
"Why do you choose to be a moron?"
"How does it feel to be the most hated man in America?"
"Why are you killing us?"
"Who died and made you king?"
"How can you claim to be a billionaire when you have lost more than you've ever made?"
"How does it feel to know in your heart you are inadequate, will never be loved, and are broke?"

I want to see them make him cry.

[True Blue American]

28. Not cry,rage!

[bdamomma]

34. How's it

feel to a have a mushroom as a penis?

[Generic Brad]

36. I certainly hope you are throwing out a question for Trump!

Otherwise that is a rather personal question aimed at me.

[bdamomma]

43. No silly

that is for tRump. Stormy said it first.

[northoftheborder]

51. Yes - would listen for that. But it's turned off here totally.

[dem4decades]

31. His base loves it, they prefer to die because of his lies than have the media ask tough questions.

Here's some quotes from one on a different website.

"Trump not taking any crap from some of these dumb reporters in his news conferences. Good for him"

"This Jim Acosta guy from CNN. What a first-class jackass."

The Trump lovers are clueless.

[Rebl2]

33. Would love

to see one of them say right back to him he’s the one that should be ashamed or that he is the nasty one! Of course they would be fired if they did this, so it will never happen.

[WyattKansas]

45. The Press pool, except FUX newz, should plan out the Orange Menace rants beforehand...

By meeting together first and going over what needs to be reported and said, then laying a gotcha plan to trap him into hanging himself. Let him go batshit loony raging mad in front of the whole nation, while showing everyone that we have a juvenile delinquent for a President that does not know anything and doesn't have a clue how to even start an adequate response that is past 3 months late.

The best part, he will melt down showing how stupid he is in front of his FUX fans too. Maybe then he will seriously consider an exit from the shit storm he made, so someone responsible can finally be appointed to clean up his mess and actually begin a real response.

[lpbk2713]

48. Intimidation worked for the asshole in the business world.

Dumbass still doesn't realize it's a whole new ball game.

[Under The Radar]

52. He wouldn't be able to shut down Sam Donaldson

[Grasswire2]

55. I want them to address all questions to Pence. Drive him nuts to be ignored.

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

"My question is for the vice president."

He would wig out.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

56. I wish a whole lot of people

Would flash mob the rose garden during a presser and ask him the questions reporters are too cowed to ask.

Fake being fans,so trump will think it's his base. Than go after him .Than watch what happens..
Bwahahahaa!
