• Trump presser takes questions exclusively from conservative media
    11 replies, posted
[quote] President Trump called on two reporters from conservative news outlets at his press conference Wednesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, continuing a pattern of mostly selecting questioners from the right. Townhall and the Christian Broadcasting Network received questions on Wednesday. At a joint press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday, the Daily Caller and Sinclair Broadcasting asked questions. The New York Post and Fox Business Network asked questions during Trump’s joint press conference Friday with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. And Trump called on Reuters and Fox News at a joint presser with British Prime Minister Theresa May last month. With news swirling around national security adviser Michael Flynn’s resignation and calls between Trump campaign officials and Russia last fall, Trump received questions Wednesday about whether allies could hamper the path forward on fixing the Iran nuclear deal. He was also asked about the path to peace in the Middle East. Those questions would seem appropriate in the context of the meeting with Netanyahu, but members of the media criticized the White House publicly for attempting to dodge questions about Russia and Flynn.

I mean, it's not like the President is going to take questions from Fake News, righ:vomit: Urp, sorry about that mess on the floor. I'll clean it up. But how many more hints do people need to see that Trump is not acting with the best interests of The People in mind?

The issues that other people care about, they dont care about, because all they want are jobs to support themselves which they're qualified for (which no longer exist) and a way for their fading legitimacy to vault back in the spotlight (hence the election of the orange in chief).
Can't wait til the Daily Stormer gets to ask Trump when he plans on exterminating the Jews.
So we got a problem, Someone has pointed out that Nixon could have survived in today's polarized climate because of Fox News. Meaning that Ergo, we not even see an impeachment because Most of the Conservative media is convinced that this is Deep State throwing a hissy fit about Trump.

The GOP could run Charles Manson and people would still vote for him if he promised lower taxes than the other guys.

[QUOTE=Llamaguy;51827153]Thank goodness FOX News <> Congress.[/QUOTE] How do you know The GOP doesn't watch fox news or other Conservative media.
[QUOTE=Llamaguy;51827153]Thank goodness FOX News <> Congress.[/QUOTE] Fox and conservative media et al don't have power over Congress but if they can help shape the narrative in a way that makes a push for impeachment seem less palatable by the voters.
FUCK THIS SHIT it's starting, Conservative Media is starting to defend trump from the Allegations.

Trump won. Clinton lost. Those in the electorate and the government need to deal that there’s a new sheriff in town. If they don’t like it, well, they have to wait until 2020 to vote Mr. Trump out of office. That’s how our constitutional republic works."[/quote] See you in the impeachment hearings, fuckers. Also in 2018. And also pretty much every day because we're going to protest the absolute fuck out of your shitty administration.
