So how about the whoppers in this mornings press conference? Good laughs.

Yeah, the press got rocked. It was awesome.
how do you mean Ravael? I didn't get to watch.

Trump was having a lot of fun at this press conference, and he lit into the media and called them out on their crap. You probably wouldn't accept my take on it, though, so it's best to read/watch the recap and decide for yourself.

That does sound pretty entertaining, as there is a lot of hypocrisy involved.

A press conference involving the media and a major politician? I don't think a zero-hypocrisy interaction is even possible.

If you are a trump fan he owned and also schooled the media, then he steamrolled them and made them eat the white poop. (stepbrothers style)

if you aren't a fan of trump nothing he said made any sense and everything he said was a lie and he will probably be impeached tomorrow

you'll catch the highlights/lowlights on whateverr fake media source you subcribe to.

and then foney will post a simpsons gif

Well, at least he named a qualified person for Labor Secretary, had he named Acosta from the beginning he would have cruised through confirmation.

Donald Trump’s combative, grievance-filled press conference, annotated
WaPo

Not really annotated, they just highlighted the "alternate facts.

I would bother to take more seriously the claims of his supporters that say he is devouring the press and winning or something if he could at least conjure coherent sentences.

Look don't take anything he says literally I mean those are just words that come out of his mouth... read between the lines and then when something good happens that's what he really meant and when something bad happens that's just the liberal msm and their facts I don't like...

The prepared remarks are mostly comprehensible, but the Q&A is just unhinged. My favorite part was when he asked a black reporter to set up a meeting with the Congressional Black Caucus because they all know each other, apparently.

But the "tone" in which he asked it. So hateful like the facts I don't like.

All this can be summed up as such:

He [Flynn] didn’t have to do that, because what he did wasn’t wrong — what he did in terms of the information he saw. What was wrong was the way that other people, including yourselves in this room, were given that information, because that was classified information that was given illegally. That’s the real problem.

Is it ok to release classified information that has not been declassified as long as it had a political motive to it?

Or is it ok when it's against Trump?

I didn't realize that the DNC emails were classified (not that I care at all, but still.....).
