    Three cheers for Trump! I love someone standing up to the DNC media for a change.


    "During a contentious press conference at Trump Tower today, Donald Trump slammed the political press, calling them among the most dishonest people he's ever met.
    The presumptive Republican presidential nominee accused many in the media of dishonest reporting and twisting his words to fit their own narrative.
    In particular, Trump went after ABC reporter Tom Llamas, pointing at him and calling him a "sleazy guy."
    "He's a sleaze in my book," Trump stated."

    Repeating what trump says is a good way to get insulted.

    You're a sleaze because you know the facts and you know the facts well."

    Sounds about right.

    Yes he knows the facts well then reports the exact opposite and that is definitely a sleaze bag.

    I love how Trump calls it as is.

    I can't wait until he sits down with Putin and calls him an idiot.

    Yawn. Trump lied about how much money he raised and he's trying to distract the rubes from that simple fact.

    I see it's worked on you.

    he won't. He has respect for leaders even if he doesn't agree with them. What he doesn't respect in agenda driven reporters.

    Media lied about missing money and you fell for it. Trump accounted for all the money raised at his press conference and scolded the media like the little children they are

    I also would love to see someone stand up to the DNC media but there is no such thing so it's like standing up to a ghost or Santa Clause.

    No, the media didn't lie about him lying about how much he raised.

    But by all means tell yourself whatever you have to to keep from breaking down.

    Yeah, reporters report nothing but facts, right? They reported that Trump is a racist but so far no one can offer up a shred of proof. They reported he wanted to ban Muslims when all he said was he wanted to make sure they've properly checked out before they come there. They reported that he's a misogynist and hates women when all he did was have a few spats with a few women - who doesn't? They reported that he calls for violence while ignoring the violence spread by Sander supporters. They reported that he made money during the housing crash yet said nothing about Elizabeth Warren doing the same thing. And do I even need to tell you about the NY Times story?

    What he does not respect is anyone who call him out when he is lying.

    Absolute crap. Have you ever given to a charity at an event? It's rare to give checks or larges sums of cash. Pledges are made and paid in the correct form later. Call you local public television station during their next drive, you'll make a pledge to be followed up with payment in the proper form.

    This takes time and I'm sure some don't follow through, thus the few percentage point discrepancy. Normal.

    The presses ignorance isn't an excuse it makes them sleezy.

    Cheers

    The campaign couldn't substantiate the fundraising and contributions to match the rhetoric. Trump is such a prolific BS artist they were correct to assume he's lying about this as well. He's thrown out lies at every turn, why wouldn't they think this was status quo BS.

    My guess: It WAS BS and he went through with donations only to shut up the press.

    Yawn. Newp, not crap. He claimed to have raised $6 million dollars when in fact he had not. His own campaign admitted to it.

    Sorry that reality upsets you.

    Out of the 72 member White House press corps, not one is a registered Republican. Fair and balanced?

    And it only took 4 months and major pressure for this POS to follow through. Maybe. I don't believe an effing thing he says.

    And really, what if this lying scumbag only raised $2 million? He'd first off lie. Now he's pressed to prove the lie. For EXACTLY $3.6 million he can shut up the press. Prolly not a bad price. And he damn sure doesn't need to add in $4 million.

    Do not believe a single word from America's best BS artist.
