    Not even the MSM. I'm not defending them. But there is them and Independent Media. So ALL media is against him. Because he deserves it. Every single media outlet can't be looked at as not trust worthy. And they aren't.

    If he reacts then most probably he watch,
    but let him talk against the TV speakers as long as he will not turn it off.

    he could never suppress the freedom of the press,
    never.

    Who is the independent media? Not blasting you, just asking. Trump has a LARGE portion of the media in his corner if you are talking about the most watched sites.

    That's part of the issue for him lol. He tries to control and restrict but everyone in his cabinet is a tv star. They all mistakenly give up information. Which is biting him already. And will continue to do so.

    Please produce this info. Because he does not.

    Perhaps Trump even chuckle watching Melissa McCarthy do Sean Spicer in Saturday night live. :)
    I could say that he is really watching it for he did comment when he was the one featured by Alec Baldwin as "Biased",
    Being a political practitioner Trump did almost become one and evolve as more feisty compared with the rest.

    You can attack but you don't lie. And what he does is counter punch. And by the way if they had anything worth the trouble it would have been out there by now.

    You're right; he isn't bright enough to deserve such high praise. Yokels would feel hard done-by.

    Bullying is what the media has been doing to Republicans and others for years. Bullies are, by definition bad people. The problem they are having now is that they've now run into someone who won't be cowed and won't permit himself to be bullied by a bunch of Pecksniffian pantywaists. And there going crazy because he has successfully dumped their insipid rule book and made them look like a bunch of whiny school children into the bargain.

    Of course he will, because anybody with a brain knows they are just reporting the facts. Things he has said. Not taken out of context, things he said and defended after the point. Things in permanent record on Twitter. All facts. He's like a right wing troll, just deflects constantly. But who is he kidding? 25% of the country voted for him, and many are realizing what a horrible mistake they made. And those that are still defending him are the lowest of the low in this country. And you know this by the fact they can't actually defend him, they just deflect that liberals are all butthurt.

    The entire world is making fun of him, knows he's and incompetent buffoon, and all his cabinet picks are billionaires that are going to remove all protections to the people so these billionaires can take even more of the wealth in this country.

    So keep deflecting, keep lying, keep being hypocrites, because you are just making yourselves look bad. Something many of us already know you were. But this just seals the deal with ultimate proof

    And when you completely make bold face lies all the time. I mean, comedians couldn't make up what Trump has done, its that ridiculous. And the hypocrisy from him and his supporters is absolutely astounding.

    I'm still waiting for the day Trump gives a press conference and says "Ha, I trolled you America, just to show what hypocrites and scumbags many republicans are"

    He's already won. Nobody except brain dead lock step liberals believe a thing MSM says anymore without verifying it.

    That's the scarey part. Ever work for someone incompetent? Every have a rival business who the leader was incompetent? Ever have to negotiate with someone who is incompetent? Now that's what USA has.

    He doesn't care if he loses. I actually am lmao. I am not surprised by any of what he does. But he won't last. And he doesn't care because he will just spin things. And as a former President he will have access to more stuff than he ever did. But he is losing this battle very badly.

    And here's another list of whored out "journalist" presstitutes who agreed to collude with the criminal Clinton cartel by joyfully attending a cocktail dinner with Clinton campaign operatives. Via The Intercept:

    The Clinton campaign likes to use glitzy, intimate, completely off-the-record parties between top campaign aides and leading media personalities. One of the most elaborately planned get-togethers was described in an April, 2015, memo -- produced, according to the document metadata, by deputy press secretary Jesse Ferguson -- to take place shortly before Clinton's official announcement of her candidacy. The event was an April 10 cocktail party for leading news figures and top-level Clinton staff at the Upper East Side home of Clinton strategist Joel Benenson, a fully off-the-record gathering designed to impart the campaign's messaging...

    If Trump ignores people who work for media outlets that continue to refer to him as Hitler, a Nazi, a fascist, a bigot, a homophone, a sexist a racist and an anti-Semite, these outlets will lose viewership; loss of viewership means loss of ratings; this leads to loss of revenue.

    Trump does not need to sell advertising - MSNBC does.
    Trump wins.

    The media lost the fight when they started it. I'm a NeverTrumper and despise Trump (about as much as I despise Hillary), and I can see that. All of this is feeding his base. The media is helping him, but they don't even realize it.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Yep, and whenever it's been released, he ends up winning. I'm glad the media is too dense to realize that.

    I think you are mistaken. I don't like him, and I see him winning. I see the press screwing up over and over. The problem is that people don't forget. We have seen how the press changes tones based on the administration. I think their knees are still sore from the last eight years...... Now, they think they need to be the loyal opposition. They can't have it both ways. You can't spend 8 years fellating the last president, and then suddenly act as if the duty of the press is to be skeptical of the President. If they had held Obama's feet to the fire, they'd have more support in flyover country. They didn't, so they can't turn around and hold any other President's feet to the fire. This is a self-inflicted wound by the Press.

    We've had 8 years of incompetence, and unfortunately looks like another 4 of it as well.

    Not really. Look outside of your bubble.
