The President vs the Free Press

What question about Russia could possibly be asked that hasn’t already been asked? Acosta is a giant dbag and a showboat. Absolutely nothing new is covered st these news conferences and I would say Trump is more generous with his time than a lot of presidents previously.

The press kissed the ex-rodent in chiefs ass and why not, most of them loved him and and were donating to his election/re-election efforts as well as the rest of the pinko left wing communist bedwetters who run for or already are in office.

The press talks about respect and civility all the time yet when the Prssident asks them to sit down they start acting like a monkey flinging their poo at visitors. They want everyone to treat them like they are paragons of virtue and that they have all Americans best interests at heart, which couldn’t be further from the truth. Most are bought shills for the liberals/dems and they rarely can get out of the starting gate without being disrespectful and whinny punks. The difference now is Trump dishes it right back out and refuses to be a defenseless punching bag like his predecessors were.

How often do they celebrate anything this guy has done? Over employment, raising wages, stock market run, lowest unemployment for minorities since they kept track of such things and on and on. They just continue to nitpick and whine about any little slight Trump commits and beat the Russia deal like a dead horse. It would be laughable were it not so sad.

The vast majority of stories about Trump are negative and while he continues to commit forced errors no one in politics, either party have done so much bad that 92% of the coverage should be negative.

The media and their handlers are still pissed that he beat the shebeast and they are trying to do everything possible to help the people who’s pockets they live in to make sure Trump is defeated in 2020.

The huge majority of the media are gutless, backstabbing, whinny little bitches who aren’t reporters at all. They are activists and shills for the people who think like them and a pain in the ass for anyone who doesn’t.

Well, if Amee Vanderpool says so, then that settles it. BTW, the "staffer" is an intern who was doing her job, which is to keep the microphone moving. Should Acosta get 10 minutes? Regardless of how Trump behaved, once he demonstrated he wasn't going to answer another question from Acosta what is the point if letting him stand there and grandstand?
 
Members of the press who aren't consistent grandstanders like Jim Acosta have, on more than one occasion, commented that Trump is many times more accessible to the press than his predecessor.
No president in my lifetime has been attacked more viciously by the media than Trump in or outside the WH. Obama certainly wasn't. When he entered the room for his few and random news conferences, the press all assumed the kneeling position with open mouths in front of him. The gargling sounds drowned out most of what Obama said.

There might be some reasons for this.

-He was a reality TV star before he was POTUS
-He is rude and disrespectful to those who question him/disagree with him.
-He makes up disparaging names for people he doesn't like.
-He has never been politically correct, and clearly enjoys going against the grain when it comes to being politically correct.
-He repeatedly makes statements that are incorrect or meant to mislead. When called on those statements, he doubles down.

But, as a Trump fan, you know all this. It is one of the reasons you love him. I have never understood how Trumpsters can constantly high five each other when Trump goes on the attack, while complaining when he gets "mistreated" by those he constantly attacks. I'm not sure what world you live in, but when someone around me acts like a douche/ass/jerk, it is pretty difficult to reign in my inclinations and continue to treat that person with kindness and respect.

Oprah is a presenter/correspondent for 60 minutes and has been for a couple of years. She's an employee of CBS

OK. I still think Murdoch to Oprah is a better comparison. Hannity talks politics almost daily for public consumption. Oprah rarely is focused on political discussion.
 
I think he's in Oprah's area of media influence. Nobody is bitching about her being a shill for democrats

I agree, but he tries to paint himself with the legitimate news press brush whereas Oprah is now pretty clearly just an “entertainer”.

Except now that I think about it, Oprah is still working on 60 Minutes on CBS, right?

Probably a completely legit comparison given that.

Lol
 
When did Free Press = Jim Acosta personal rights? When Trump restricts the entire or at least swathes of the corps, I'll stand beside you. But when its ALWAYS the same, belligerent individual being punished, then maybe its the individual. I notice Trump chided Alexander (NBC reporter) but somehow he didn't lose his credentials. He's sparred with a number of reporters, but none of them lost their credentials. Somehow its only Acosta each and every time?
 
Satire like The Onion.
What part of the name Babylon screams Christian to you?
Equal opportunity offender. Check the Bee thread in the future. They have lots of great Trump digs.

The Babylon Bee is a satirical evangelical Christian website. The site is famous for over-the-top satirical stories focusing on well known pastors, celebrities, and politicians. It was created by Adam Ford and was launched on March 1, 2016. In 2018, Ford sold the website to Seth Dillon. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Babylon_Bee

Are you implying that its unChristian to use Satire? Or are you upset that even Christian's can poke fun (clearly in jest) at others? Or is it that you believe that only Dems can make fun of Republicans and a Christian org poking fun at a Dem is off limits?
