Watched Trumps live news broadcast. Got to say he knows how to take command. Especially how he passed over reporters by telling them they worked for junk news organizations. I can see a refreshing era of you either report accurately or you don't get included.

Geez. Don't you mean our refreshing era of "cherry-picked news", by which I mean, only news that Donald Trump sees fit to comment on that makes him look good? Any news he doesn't like is just fake news.

Oh good, he's taking cues from third-world tinpot dictators!

command? That is what you call command.? Hide behind a woman lawyer and her specious defense of a not-too-blind trust? Refusing major media outlets questions because of your FALSE assertion that they had leaked unproven allegations. They did not, they merely reported that such allegations had been presented to Trump and Obama which is TRUE. That was a full on assault on a free press. Step one in attempting a fascist takeover of the US.

Woody probably has a closet full of brown shirts ready to go.

How leftist. Next thing you now you'll be having book burnings. Nothing from either you except innuendos and character attacks. And slick I was referring to how Trump commanded the press conference. Yet you drag up some non-related instance. You would hide behind a atty. if you were being sued also.

Oh, there's no question he commanded it. But did we learn anything useful other than the fact Trump is a bully who only says things or takes questions that support his bully pulpit?

Perhaps you should of listened as he took a large number of questions and he answered them.

actually, he didn't take very many for a first press conference. At all. Moreover, he snubbed one major outlet over a lie of his own making, threatened a reported with ouster(via his press secretary) for no real reason, repeated his own lies and did ZERO by way of clarification of positions, transparency around finances, which are clearly still far off the mark, didn't produce his income taxes as long promised. Great conference!! The Best Ever, really!!

The guy is a joke, and his apologists are idiots. I simply cannot be more charitable.

When you're actively supporting a piece of human garbage who has never shown anything but sheer incompetence in any of his public dealings, you lose any claims at "character" in the first place. Don't vote for utter wastes of oxygen if you can't take being called on it, maybe.

here's your command, Woody:

Donald Trump has not yet done anything for which it can be to blame.
In contrast to the Winner of the Nobel Prize 44 US President Barack Obama.

Think Mr. Putin will be happy if Trump decides to leave these troops that Obama is currently deploying into Poland?

Listen, you're a little detached from reality. What the ★■◆● is Poland? Who cares? Russia can destroy the entire planet

I thought so. Welcome to WWIII.

TC...Yes, it's in Russian. But from the heart.

Too bad we both now have leaders who's idea of statesmanship and friendship is to wield their manhood like proverbial swords of power and damn the consequences.

It is not we have started. 20 minutes, and the United States will only radioactive ashes

As would you, and the whole world would be fucked. That's why MAD is a thing, and why nobody outside of wingnuts like TB sees it as a possibility in the 21st century. Your point?

I get the impression the average citizen in Russia may not actually know other countries have nukes…would explain a lot of sigma’s boasting.

Is that what the Russian people want? To nuke the U.S. and destroy the whole world because our idiot leaders get into a dick fights?

EDIT: So is Russia perhaps doing a little more cyber-war BS against the U.S. already?

Illputinati confirmed.

(Thank you, I'll be here all week!)

for those that missed the actual press conference, Gary Trudeau has provided an accurate rendering:

It was also one of those idiotic Trump commercials that masquerade as a press conference. Trump water, Trump wine, Trump steaks. Gag me.

This is the USA media made out of molehills. Computer viruses of Ukraine together with United States is interested in much more than Russia.
Russia is doing everything quickly and seriously. Russia is not the United States, Ukraine or Europe.

Was this picture taken during the primaries or after the election. If during the primaries I'd say good business sense, if afterward I'd say tacky.

You know woody, I think that photo was from his March press conference, so you might be right. I can't find any reference to that stuff at his most recent press conference and I can't find the original link to the photo I posted. However, that pile of papers and folders he had lying on a table beside him as a prop could've been just been bought at an office supply store and were blank for all we know. He wouldn't allow anyone to look at them to verify they were what he said they were.

sigma, the Russian people are good people, but you need to take what your own leaders say with a little more skepticism, think for yourselves sometimes and don't automatically swallow everything they tell you is the truth. What your government does in the spy and espionage business is certainly far more aggressive towards the U.S. than they would ever admit to the Russian people in public. Putin used to work for the KGB, so he knows how to bend the truth or manipulate things to get what he wants. I certainly don't swallow some of the propaganda and rhetoric our country's leaders shove down our throats at times, especially even more now since we've just elected a serial lair and egomaniac.

By the way, this is the type of thing Putin does to silence his critics. If you don't believe this, then you'll never learn the truth.

tunnelcat, you could have said at least one reason Russian aggression?

Crimea maybe?

Crimea has long been a Russian federal district. And the most amazing thing is that almost only Americans and Ukrainians are outraged about it. It's very interesting why )

So this is why Mother Russia had to send troops in?

Fear Not, Sigma. The US is about to elevate a blithering idiot who agrees, with you, that Russian aggression has not happened. In fact, this Orange Colored Dolt once stated that Russia had never invaded the Ukraine.

Pathetic babble. This is exactly the view of Slick?

Sigms, you have to understand that slick is a Democratic party operative and their avowed goal right now is to de-legitimize Trump with a eye to removing him from office.

well Sigma, you're close. I'm trying to restrain my true feelings to keep within banning limitations here.

Trump doesn't need one iota of outside help to be delegitamized.

Well, it will be a precedent for that. I do not want to believe it, but if I understand correctly that the Americans controlled the shadow economy

The man did not understand that he was a victim of the USA media.

the 'man' is way over his freaking head, in a lot of pools at once, and is too stupid to realize it in time.
