OMG so now Putin is flexing his muscles with the ship, the buzzing plane, and the missile--all because he doesn't think he can make a deal with Trump right now because it would be politically unpopular.
I think this was something he and Putin planned out to make Trump look good to his base--he can posture and look all "grown up" and still give Putin what he wants when they "negotiate" later.

Deny, deny, deny. CNN is so angry. It's everyone else's fault. Deny, deny, deny. Talk in circles. Spin it. BS. It's exhausting to listen to. It truly is, isn't it? Him and KAConway are hard to follow and I lose braincells listening. I end up feeling 'stoopid' trying to follow the circling, twisting, ranting, raving. Ugh Believe me. Unhinged, he is.

Except that he didn't have the highest electoral vote total since Reagan. Both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama got substantially more electoral college votes (both times!) than he did. So even his continued brag is a lie. Ugh.

I'm honestly just disgusted. He's insulting. Condescending. Rude.
I love that these reporters are pushing him. Keep it up. He gets more and more flustered and then aggressive each time.
Now, his "friendly" reporter asked too tough a question?
He will explode, soon.

I just cannot bring myself to listen to him talk. I always mute it, and watch the news reports after.
That's me. Its so bad that I only end up watching about fifteen minutes total every day.

I think election fraud is his talking point default because the Nazi/Republican/business cabal is going to use that to make voting more difficult to ensure Republican control and all that means for the elite white faux Christian males.

I'm reading that he asked a black reporter if she wanted to set up a meeting for him with the Congressional Black Caucus and then he asked her if they were friends of hers??

He just asked an African-American reporter at the press conference to set up a meeting between Trump and the Congressional Black Caucus. "Are they friends of yours?" lol, posting at the same time as janeliz

I though it was interesting that several reporters kept pressing him about campaign staffers contacting Russia prior to the election. They were very specific and were trying to tie him down with a yes or no answer. Of course he said that he did not have knowledge of such contact.
It makes me wonder if there isn't some information to the contrary floating around out there.
ETA: I realize there are rumors about staffers talking to Russia. I'm just wondering if someone has a source they are working on and they are trying to get him to lie in public before running with the story.

I would love to see a transcript of the press conference. Look at his exact words, the incomplete sentences, the zig zag of his thought process.

This news conference may have just got that ball rolling

If you believe the intelligence leaks, there are transcripts of these phone calls. And the fact he is going after the leaks not the information in the leaks is surely spurring the media to dig deeper, and trying to get him on record issuing a flat denial.

I thought the transcripts were just the phone calls with Flynn? But that would make sense if it also covered staffer phone calls.

Honestly, the more leaks & tweets there are, the better off we're going to be.
