TRUMP attacks reporters: "You're actually sitting too close. We should probably get rid of about another 75-80 percent of you. I'll have just two or three of you that I like in this room. I think that's a great way of doing it."

1. please tell me they got up...

and walked out...

5. Nope. And even though he said they were sitting to close to one another no one had

The intestinal fortitude to point out how close he and his band of idiots are standing to one another.

13. I wish

I can't imagine how they could sit there and take his blatant abuse. He was worse in this press conference than he previous ones. He did, however, have very nice things to say about himself and his administration.

He just can't help himself. He can only talk for so long before he has to insult and slander other people. Its in his nature. And even when he wasn't insulting people and covering his own ass, he was giving inaccurate information.

16. That is what they should have done

but they did not

2. Funny, I feel the same way about tRump appointees in the administration

3. His butt kissers.

That is when it falls apart. Cracks are forming now!

4. He told a couple of them

He told a couple of the reporters to leave because they were sitting too close.

6. more projection on the part of the orange asshole. nt

[frazzled]

7. Why not move to a larger room for these press conferences

so that the reporters can spread out more? Why not hold them via video conferencing, like the rest of the country is doing right now?

[crickets]

11. Because that would make sense. It would also involve thinking/caring about others. nt

8. Greenwald and Snowden were unavailable for comment

[underpants]

9. Sitting too close? He and Pence usually stay in every camera frame

With 4-6 people basically rubbing shoulders.

10. If Helen Thomas were still alive,

she would have spit in his face.

[PatSeg]

14. Oh, if Helen Thomas was still alive,

she would have had her White House credentials pulled in the first month of his administration!

[Demsrule86]

12. They need to stop going to his fake conferences.

15. translation of everything Trump said today...
