Stupid "press conference". Don't know if he's controlling Mike's or what. No pushback.

(34,661 posts)Corporate America,including the Corporate Media,is worried about their mega Tax Breaks going away.
Oh let's not forget what is more important than a truly functioning Fourth Estate,Ad revenue in the Billions. Recall the analysis of the 2016 campaign season. All the Media bragged about their mega Ad Sales profit and how Trump drove those profits,and btw,they got their mega Tax Breaks which will produce Campaign dollars for every Rethug who gave them those Tax breaks.

(34,661 posts)It has to be grass roots organizing and the use of Social Media. Watched the super positive effect in real time of Social Media Campaign in NV 4 District. All those Young folks tweeting and texting was one fantastic site to behold.

(42,770 posts)Of his presser. Just takes chutzpah like AOC. Set up a microphone. Rebut!
WE are allowing him to spew without response. Bad on us. Millions probably heard only his side today. You can say it doesn't matter but it does!! Everyday a lie should be exposed.
We can't just hope the press does it. Especially when media savvy trump controls the sound and cameras

(34,661 posts)two Major Newspapers,will give the Microphone to their top money maker. Here is what is not happening,Nancy Pelosi as well as other Dems are having almost daily fact based News Pressers which are not being attended by or reported by these same Media people.
What seems to be happening in real time,is the final days of Trumps nightmare,and his own stupid remarks. Trump is scared to death of what he created and he is now acting his so called Base necessities.

(42,770 posts)Even get anyone to cover it? That is absurd.
Trump is not scared..not one iota. I wouldn't be either if I controlled the news, had NO One disputting me on camera, Democrats trashing Biden when he's sitting there.
