(2,108 posts)And yet the pro trump supporters take away is: see, the media just finds one little misstatement and hammers it on and on.
It just doesn't matter. The bar is set that low so long as they win.
Solly Mack
(90,794 posts)Just to see his face explode into anger.
Sanity Claws
(21,862 posts)I wouldn't have answered that question the way that journalist did.

(494 posts)Anything but you're the president smh
Caliman73
(11,755 posts)That he actually only won the battleground states by 80,000 votes with clouds of suspicion surrounding claims of voter suppression by the Republican election officials in charge of those states.
He "won" the EC by 80,000 votes. That is not a huge margin.
maxsolomon
(33,432 posts)He's not even that good at bullying.
"You're the President" is a perfect response.
Bernardo de La Paz

(3,231 posts)and he started ragging on Hillary. The woman cut him off and he whimpered "oooh oooh sorry" and then went on fox the next day "the woman was so rude. I told her off though". big big man.
Caliman73
(11,755 posts)"Well, whatever you say... supposedly you're the president."

Vinca
(50,319 posts)It doesn't matter what it says, I'm really 20 pounds lighter. Trust me. I have the best numbers.
Salviati
(6,009 posts)At least according to the 'Failing New York Times', and you know, facts. As far as elections go, his victory puts him in the 20th percentile, so probably about the same place he is in hand size rankings...

(10,927 posts)He seems to consistently ignore reality in favor of his own version.
If we're attacked or something, will he just ignore the facts and do nothing? Will he blame somebody else?
That's what I find scary about this.
Dark n Stormy Knight
(9,771 posts)he was supposedly given, then tries to change the subject. It doesn't matter if you had a "substantial" win, you oleaginous weasel. You didn't have a more substantial win than those you claimed to, which was the topic at hand.
Cha
(297,861 posts)MF Lies.
Tarheel_Dem
(31,245 posts)The same goes for his inexplicable defensiveness with the Jewish reporter on the threats to Jewish institutions.
If you have to keep repeating that you're not a racist, or anti-Semitic, then something's wrong.
keithbvadu2
(36,980 posts)Had a guy come into the office and about every third statement was "I'm a Christian" as he tried to explain that something was not his fault.
His neighbor told us that he got fired from a gov't job for stealing.
Tarheel_Dem
(31,245 posts)"I'm not anti-Semitic" either. I prefer to be judged by my actions, not by my words. When someone becomes so defensive at the mere suggestion, they're hiding something.
Beartracks
(12,821 posts)The problem isn't that journalists have actual facts; the problem as they see it is that the media is "attacking" Trump with those facts. And when he responds with, "Meh, whatever," they just eat that shit up.
His believers have been bred over the years to think facts themselves aren't important anymore. And that's a problem for self-governance.
