You want the real truth? He got up there and didn't really say anything at all. Took a few questions, got a little snarky with a couple reporters, and then put some broad up there to talk about the "Chinese wall" that he was implementing between him and his businesses.

Isn't that about right, DT?

More or less.

I think my synopsis from earlier, however, will prove to be accurate not just for this particular farce, but for each and every appearance hereafter.


Did he come back up after she got done talking? I clicked it off because she was boring me to tears.

Yes, and it got appreciably worse. Enough so that, in all candor, I find myself currently feeling a bit ill.

This was a disaster. This Russia thing may be his undoing but there needs to be more there before we can do what is needed.

My favorite part of his was when he got indignant when a reporter referred to the Mexico/USA divider as a fence. Trump nearly blew a gasket.

"FAKE NEWS! It's a wall. And Mexico will be paying for it...eventually"

They will find out more about ties to Russia. His businesses are totally in bed with Russian oligarchs. It will get worse.

If he is impeached what do you think the reaction would be? I think the Republican Party would be dead. It would splinter and there would be all sorts of ugly incidents like shootings and riots.

As far as I can tell there is no proof but his words lead you to believe that it may be true. Stating that Putin ordering a hacking to help him makes Russia an asset is one of the craziest statements a president could make.

That number is all Americans not working, including children, retirees, and the disabled. It's cherry picking at its finest.

Ted Cruz loved to point out how the number was rising, and that was all Obama's fault. Of course, anybody with a functioning brain understands that baby boomers were retiring.

I find it impossible to not have some belief, at the very least an iota of belief, that there are some folks somewhere, maybe Republicans, maybe Democrats too in a bipartisan effort, that have been, and currently are now, working very quickly and quietly with others in the intelligence community (coat driiiive) - and probably not just ours - to give this delusional and smug sonofabitch the ol' Nixon heave-ho tout de suite ... though I don't necessarily believe that they'll give him a chance to go away peacefully and try to save face.

I was home for lunch and watched 5 minutes. This was the part I caught. Part of me wanted to make some popcorn and
sit back and watch. The other half of me felt like I was driving through a gapers delay on the tollway to see what kind of
damage a jackknifed semi had caused. It was a bit embarrassing. What a tool.

The Republican Party would be fine. They will abandon him when the true smoking gun comes out and Mike Pence will take over and do decent enough.

I think Republicans and Democrats would be able to unite to impeach him. Trump would bring the country together in ways Obama couldn't!

There will be 4 years of this hostile media relationship. Will media be bewildered in 2020 when he wins again?

Kellyanne Conway is literally the only person from the Trump administration that should ever speak.

Oh kid, he just might be in on it too ... digging up dirt on Trump I mean.

I don't see how he wins.

He called himself the Best Job Creator God Ever Created.

He's writing the attack ads himself once his 4 years run of failure is done.

Pence can at least appear like an adult. What he says may be unsavory, sure, but at least it's not like listening to a dimwitted jackal looking for its next victim.

His disastrous presidency will be the fault of Barry. FOX has already blamed him for any future terrorist attacks during the Trump administration.

He won't win 2020, because the people can't stand to watch another year of Schwarzenegger doing The Apprentice.

He was caught on tape bragging about how he grabs pussy as he pleases. Dems would need to find a candidate that is likeable and not a doc brown looking socialist.

I look at it the other way: I can deal with Trump being a fool because I'm afraid of what Pence will be able to do by "speaking like an adult."

Right, b/c people are/were more worried about getting a paycheck. It's always the economy and Trump's policies aren't going to help the people who voted for him.

Thinking down the road, if I don't go lie down in the middle of it before then, another almost certain consequence of this run of ... I don't know what to call it and I know lots of words and phrases, great ones, ones you've never heard of, believe me ... is when the pendulum does finally swing the other way again, while there may well be some degree of sanity and, hopefully, common decency restored, as well as the evaporation of feelings 'trumping' facts, the just as annoying and dangerous (imo) SJW crowd - and their ilk - will be even more insufferable and divisive than they have ever been, which is just another stack of shit on the pile of despondency and makes one wonder about why one should bother with anything at all anymore.

They just need to nominate the Liberal Donald Trump in order to beat Trump. So... Sean Penn, I guess.

just imagine if you added all the people posting on messageboards/facebook/twitter/SOCMED during the 9-5 hours? it could be spot on, assuming your semantics for "not working" match mine =P
