How is this in the slightest presidential? He has turned the presidency into a trash show Duck Dynasty style. To the eternal shame of our nation.

Very modern presidential, Donny.

Back to my morning, covfefe.

24 ( +25 / -1 )

"But I'm president, and they're not," he said.

Says the aging baby boomer, the 'modern president' who obviously can't handle the pressures of the office a minority of Americans elected him to represent.

He's reverting back to the days of his childhood when after throwing a fit mummy, daddy and the family servants would bring him new toys to play with. It's disconcerting watching his melt-down, his further descent into dementia.

Reminder: Trump has the code to weapons that can destroy large parts of the world.

OMG...when is this guy going to grow TF up?

"But I'm president, and they're not," he said.

A good rule of thumb in life is if you have to tell people your title to get respect, you are never going to get respect.

Trump campaigned on the claim that the US was an inch away from falling completely apart...and now he's using his time not to fix the problem, but to mock news agencies that report on his incompetence. He's the mental equivalent of a 13 year old internet troll picking fights with others from the safety of his mothers' basement.

19 ( +21 / -2 )

While the world gazes in horror at the antics of this grotesque man, the gang of white supremacists, Christian jihadis, theocrats and billionaire anti-democrats that pulls his strings are destroying the US.

It's very sad to see once-great countries like the US and the UK hurtling into the abyss.

You elect a reality TV performer, you get a reality TV performance.

What are the odds on the Donald never realizing the irony of using footage of a WWE fight (which is staged and hence, fake) to call out someone else as fake? My money is on never.

DT keeps on trolling.

That keeps everyone busy, especially the media.

They shouldn't run for the bones DT is throwing at them.

They are not going to win.

They should stick to investigative journalism and reporting.

Pathetic, petty man. Utter trash.

Grow up.

And like clockwork, the inept media falls for his shenanigans. We clearly don't have any real journalism anymore. Everything is about ratings and more ratings. By giving trump more airtime, medias only making him more popular. He comes off as an underdog and we all love an underdog. My thinking is the hurt from his win had completely clouded minds to rationality. Everything is about how one feels now. Zeus help us. It's going to be a bumpy ride!!

He really makes America look bad as never seen before @ the worldwide stage, is this his definition of being "great again" ?

Hey we've been told by people on here that they don't care what the international community thinks of him... I hope when he is dissed again at the next big meeting they don't have any complaints.

Everyone calm down.  It was a parody joke.  When other Presidents make fun of themselves it is viewed as funny and classic.  What's the difference between this gag, and the White House Press Dinner that Trump skipped where the Presidents make jokes about themselves and others and sometimes go into places where it may seem appropriate.  I seem to remember the libs were up in the air when "W" made jokes, and they were saying he set the world on fire and all he can do is stand there and make lame jokes about it.

Even when then candidate Nixon went on the show Laugh In back in the late 60's and said "Sock it to me" some felt that was un-Presidential but it helped him when the race back in 1968.

It was a doctored video from years ago when he was a private citizen, let it go.

Press Secretary Sean Spicer said the Donald's tweets are the official statements of the President of the United States of America, and "the tweets speak for themselves". Is the media wrong to cover the official statements of the POTUS? Is it the media's fault that he is writing childlike tweets and throwing temper tantrums on Twitter rather than making meaningful policy statements? The President is acting like a entitled kindergartner and name-calling people and the media is supposed to be talk about his policy initiatives that the President himself does not have the mental capacity to understand and never discusses in the first place?

Everything is about how one feels now. Zeus help us. It's going to be a bumpy ride!!

Yeah, why should we care about how people feel when the POTUS demeans women and makes sexist and childish remarks. No one should care that the President openly trashes the independent media, the institutions of the US, and makes a mockery of the US at home and abroad.

It was a parody joke.  

It was parody? See, I don't think so. On the heels of Trump and his handlers talking about how Trump is a fighter and he punches back, as well as his illusions of grandeur, I would not at all be surprised if Donny thinks he's sticking it to CNN. He's not. This just makes Trump look like a pretty big idiot.

Agree or not, the fact that we're not even sure if he's serious or not is pretty gobsmacking.

I'm perfectly calm dude. Calmer than you are.

It's comedy! All in good fun actually. What is it with the left and Donald Trump. They laugh hysterically at all the ridiculous spoofs that Alec Baldwin makes (which was funny in the beginning ,but oh so tired now) and the Trump team comes up with this little piece of video candy about fake news, (which CNN has totally been busted for) And they go ballistic. Take it easy and just mind your time for another 7 1/2 years. Hopefully by the end of his Presidency the CNN fake news station will be no more!

-16 ( +5 / -21 )

Well we'll see if he can keep this pace, but my guess is that people are going to endlessly bait him into outbursts.

When you call yourself a 'modern day president' on Saturday don't come up with a dad-joke on Sunday. Actually laughed when I watched the vid, 'at' DT himself.

Awesome video! Gave me a good laugh over the weekend. CNN having a meltdown about how this promotes violence. yet Trump assassination play is art and beheading of Trump of is free speech. Both are fine and to be applauded. But any old wrestling video? Lost their mind

If my memory serves me right, many on the left shouted down both of the examples you gave. Many on the right also shouted down the infamous crosshair map from Sarah Palin.

Let's not generalise, shall we?

Back to the topic, what do you think of the president of the United States tweeting stupid, low-life trash?

Back to the topic, what do you think of the president of the United States tweeting stupid, low-life trash?

The crosshair thing was debunked like 5 years ago and NY Times is being sued for that.

As far as the President tweeting stupid things, I dont think it is stupid- I think this specific tweet is hilarious. Call out fake news CNN by tweeting fake wrestling? Thats pretty high level thinking there. Pro wrestling has millions of fans in the USA, is on TV constantly, has pay per views and the owner is a billionaire, so I dont think it is trash.

Actually Michael Moore sent the theater a 10,000 dollar contribution, as one example. CNN encouraged people to go see it. but ok.

It's becoming increasingly clear that he's mocking the office of the president. He wants a bigger title: he wants to be like Putin, Oligarch for Life.

Presidents have constraints; they're wimpy in comparison. He's mocking the office, trashing it, saying he's bigger and better than a mere president. Commander in Chief? Pfft - a yesterday title. He's the Supreme Generalisimo.

Either that or his slide into dementia is going faster than predicted. He's over 70 and long been overweight. Fortunately he's no longer allowed to drive a car on US roads.

The testy tangerine troll with his toilet tweets is unwittingly and in a perverse way reinvigorating the US political system both by desacralizing the absurd, sacerdotal aura surrounding the POTUS as well as by slagging off the MSM , which ironically puts the world's most cited moron on the same page as "the world's most cited intellectual", Noam Chomsky, who years ago demystified the US media revealing the naked propaganda model at its rotten core. Trumpcare is an egregious symptom of the country's social malaise, and by making the good citizens of the USA as mad as hell so that they can't take this any more, T's greatest service to the nation might be the faintly audible gurgling and sucking sound of the detritus from a disintegrating GOP disappearing down the drain of history.

Journalists before NEVER attacked a sitting president, make sexual remarks or tried skewering him on a day to day basis. The MSM have become a complete joke of moans and desperations and petty gutter attacks.

Either that or his slide into dementia is going faster than predicted. He's over 70 and long been overweight. Fortunately he's no longer allowed to drive a car on US roads.

How old is Hillary and might I add, she's not the skinniest person she once was so many moons ago. By the way, when you are Hillary of Trump, you don't need to drive, but the cool thing about Trump, he's got his own helicopter and 737 jet! Why on Earth would you want to drive???

Yeah, interesting that CNN was trying to get Twitter to disable Trump's account under terms of service. Wonder if he could get the FCC to look into pulling CNN's license for consistent fake news? As he is so close to and cozy with the head of the FCC, Im sure he can easily do that. Oh, wait....that too cozy relationship was fake news too.

No other president has been such a clown. Journalists are responding to his statements and actions, and they need to hold him accountable as much as possible.

Otherwise, people (or worse yet, children) will think it is normal behavior. Unfortunately, there are too many people who think it is normal behavior.

So Trump, a trashmonger of appalling standing, pumps out endless stupidity and bitchiness on Twitter while baiting the media who don't like him, and then his supporters complain about harsh treatment.

Keep playing the smallest violin in the shop until the attacks reach the insane and filthy level of birtherism.

Haha, good one. I never once heard anyone questioning a president's birthplace, religion, or patriotism. I never once heard a president derided for using a teleprompter, wearing a beige suit, or throwing a baseball like a girl. I never once heard a president referred to as a sissy, a fascist, a socialist, an atheist, or the Antichrist.

Nope, never.

I'm sure that now there's a real manly man in the WH, America's enemies are shaking in their boots. They know that this titan of the twitterverse means business, and he will not let anyone damage his ego.

Was the MEDIA saying these things daily? Was the MEDIA ignoring actual news items to keep pushing fake news such as the Russia narrative?

But hey look at this, NATO is starting to pay the money which Trump demanded them to pay. The secretary of NATO even credits Trump directly for making this happen at last. Funny how that happens....Yet all the media wanted to talk about was him supposedly pushing someone and the French president's childish attempt at a handshake battle.

Yes, these things were the staple of FNC and others for years. The bitter vitriol against Obama is what gave us President Trump. The supporters of Trump are just reveling in what they feel is payback for the "evils" of the Obama years.

Readers, Obama is not relevant to this discussion.

Is this some perfect world notion you learned about in your undergrad years? Get real. If you want media outlets to only report events the way you want them reported to reflect your individual perspective, there are many to choose from. Stop expecting all reporting to be done the way you think it should be.

Why do rightists and those from countries with state controlled media constantly attack the for-profit free press? Is freedom really that great a challenge?

are exactly why this is not funny. Allowing some government agency to determine which news is "fake" and predicating licensing on this is what Russia and China do. What is scary is that it's not unimaginable that Trump would consider doing so if they continue to so get under his skin.

He will not stop because he constantly requires an object to attack as that is all which defined his chaotic "intellect". Whether it was Obama or Clinton, he was relentless - but who is he going to attack now? Congress? The Supremes? Himself? - nope. So he goes after the press. A person who cannot control themselves before modern times was called an "idiot." Etymonline has its definition as "early 14c., 'person so mentally deficient as to be incapable of ordinary reasoning." That's what we've got.

Otherwise, people (or worse yet, children) will think it is normal behavior. Unfortunately, there are too many people who think it is normal behavior.

Im from California, nothing that goes on in that State is normal anymore, but kids think so. Like believing the government should take care of you. What kind of crap is that?!

To add to that, no other president as far as I can remember has had a history of wallowing in a trash conspiracy theory so radioactive, much of the trash right media wouldn't even touch it.

Well, we never had a president that was sneaky like that last one, that never happened either, smart, dignified to some, but sneakier than a fox. Nope, I'd rather have a president that's in your face than in my hen house.

While he is tweeting, he has signed 41 bills into law. I doubt any of you can name even 5 of them, because I couldnt. So I would recommend that people read the laws, not his tweets. But do whatever you want, cause Trump is winning the media battle. CNN cant even get 1 million viewers at night time for any of their programs.

http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/q2-2017-ratings-fox-news-is-the-most-watched-cable-news-network-for-62nd-straight-quarters/333380

And then there’s Fox & Friends, Pres. Trump’s go-to cable news program. F&F not only is +48 percent in total viewers and +64 percent in the A25-54 demo compared to Q2 2016, but the program is on track to have its highest-rated year in network history. It ranked No. 1 among the cable news morning shows this past quarter, per usual.

Ok, so basically you want everyone to get a one-sided liberal point of view. How partisan of you.

I can listen to Chris Wallace at Fox. He at least laughs when trying to put the news in the best light. However, he can't even stomach what the rest of the people at Fox puts forward as so-called news.

Those I cited, including Breitbart which publishes right wing filth, are not even reporters.

All they publish are commentary that espouse the most blatant conspiracies. How much more one-sided can you get when your supposed balanced reporting isn't even based on facts? How anyone could listen to that is beyond me. But then again, I don't watch "professional" wrestling, which has the same target audience.

they miss everything else. In fact I think Trump can tweet and be President, what a tweet takes 15 seconds? 

Actually closer to 5-10minutes judging by the intervals between tweets. Probably has to do with his small thumbs.

H.J.Res. 42: "Disapproving the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to drug testing of unemployment compensation applicants"

But my point is that while the media says Trump has done nothing, he has done a whole hell of a lot, just Twitter obsessed media missed it due to Twitter and Russia. Does the media even do news on their own anymore? 90% of the so called news these days is just Twitter reactions.

There are press briefings every day except when the President is on travel or speaking himself somewhere. Media just mad that sometimes it isnt on TV, because they want the clip of themselves speaking to power or being snarky for their YouTube or Twitter account.

They seem to lose interest in asking the same gotcha question over and over once the TV cameras are off. This can be seen by Jim Acosta CNN total meltdown and unprofessional behavior in a recent off camera brief where he kept interrupting his colleagues and screaming for cameras to be turned on.

Gender pay gap is deceptive at best and nonsense at worst. Once you compare the actual jobs and number of hours worked, it goes away. A woman standing side by side with a man working the same exact job, the same number of hours and with the same qualifications/degrees doesnt make 22% less.

Oh look, H.R. 321: "Inspiring the Next Space Pioneers, Innovators, Researchers, and Explorers (INSPIRE) Women Act" which you think is unimportant would actually help with that supposed gap by getting more women into STEM (if they want to). Thanks President Trump!

You obviously didn't see the photo of Mika at Mar-a-lago.

Yeah, saw the picture. But it is a very specific thing that Trump mentioned. Really unusual to be that specific if it were just made up. At first, both of the couple even denied she had a facelift but then they changed it to that she had some work done under her chin.

So it wasnt a facelift but a chinlift, yet last I heard your chin is part of your face? Ok they can play word games on that one if they like. Regardless, no one really cares about those people and that tweet by Trump was pretty much a waste of everyone's time, including his. Nothing wrong with saying it, but it didnt really serve any major purpose as far as the fake media effort.

http://edition.cnn.com/2017/07/02/politics/white-house-gender-pay-gap/index.html

The average salary among men working in the White House was nearly $104,000, according to an analysis of the White House's annual report to Congress, which was released Friday. For women, it was $83,500. That's $20,500 less on average.

The disparity is primarily due to more women filling lower-ranking jobs. Half the men working at the White House make $95,000 or more annually, while half the women $70,500 or less.

So the White House supposedly has a 20% pay gap too. Because women in lower ranking jobs make 20% less than men in higher ranking jobs?? of course they do! should women in lower ranking jobs make as much as men in higher ranking jobs? thats nonsense.

No. Not specific:

...to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year's Eve, and insisted on joining me. She was bleeding badly from a face-lift. I said no!

Is exactly what Trump wrote. That's not specific.

Agree, yet this article compares higher ranking jobs of men to lower ranking jobs of women.

Lower RANKING jobs, which means it is either NOT the same job or NOT at the same level. The 20% in this article is comparing $104,000 average of high ranking men to the $83,500 average of lower ranking women to create a 20% difference in pay (the gender gap). There should be a 20% gap in this case, due to level of the positions being different.

The specific CNN fake news claim of a White House gender gap should be the next retraction/correction after the holiday. Proves my point that CNN will say anything they want unless someone actually looks into it and calls them out on it. It is so obvious that they are not comparing similar jobs while claiming gender pay gap.

In fact 17 people have the same title of Associate Director, 7 women and 10 men. The 7 women make $68,847 on average while the men with that title make $59,400 on average. Maybe the pay gap can be explained by differences in experience level/number of years of experience. But that is never allowed when they are trying to explain why men make more so its irrelevant to explain these women making more too.

Anyway, Trump's off to Europe later in the week. We'll see if he tweets "All of Europe press FAKE NEWS!"

Hey the media is just fighting back.

No, the corrupt corporate propaganda media is not "fighting back", they are on an unhinged anti-Trump spree and have been from day one, like their globalist paymasters, because their clever plan to plant a supposedly clownish Trump as an easy-to-destroyed target for the establishment puppet Clinton backfired. So, instead of the 8 years of sycophantic swooning over Clinton (continuing the Obama years), we are now lucking at 8 years of a deranged hysterical hate spree by the fake media. Except this guy does not bend over and take it like the typical politician, but fights back. And has the social media to bypass the CNN goons.... and they hate it! And I love it. I want to give this guy a high five. By the way, have we seen any comment from CNN about their staged muslim "anti ISIS demonstration" in London? You can find the behind-the-camera footage on Youtube and compare it to the ridiculous propaganda that they broadcast. Get out the popcorn, is phantastic! But I suppose your mainstream news outlet that is foaming at the mouth at Trump did find to report on that...

The Journalists are okay when the Medias are campaigning with hatred and insult against Trump but they didn't see to be okay when Trump fighting back. Donald Trump was not traditional US President and he was businessman and show businessman as most of those TV hosts and journalists.

To be fair, all parties must be stop bitching each others and don’t let children copy their out of control behavior and character.

These days Journalists are narcissists and they don’t bother about Journalism Ethical standard. They think they are better than other peoples and knowledgeable person. The supporters of Hillary Clinton were not accepting well about Hillary Clinton lost in Election. The jealous and hatred have coming out from Hillary Clinton’s supporters because they didn’t accept and believe Clinton lost was true.

So they are finding any clue which can damage Donald Trump’s presidency and his character. They insult Donald Trump by daily basic via their professional. It’s a pure hatred and jealous. It’s nothing to do with basic journalism.

I’m not Donald Trump’s supporter but I felt sympathy for Trump after watching countless insulting and hatred campaigning against Trump by Talk show hosts and their guests on TV and reading in Online news and blog. The Journalists should be role model for children but they have misguided children by bullying and insulting by using their professional. Some TV hosts and guests are describing President Trump as psychopath and using all the nasty words they know on TV. They are spreading hatred against American President. Some children watched these TV shows and some children were heard from their parents. Some journalists were gone too far by reporting faked news.

Where’s a moral and ethical standard of Journalism?

You may hate or dislike Donald Trump but he is American President. At least, they need to respect President titles and let him do his duty as President of America for sake of nation.

I want to ask those journalists just one question. Do you want to teach your children about hatred and jealous or love and peace?

CNN has every right to defend themselves against Trump, who is attacking them. Who wouldn't do that? And it's about time we had media who will stand up for the little guy to keep the billionaire President in check. Trump is just a wuss for complaining about it to begin with. Other presidents, especially Obama, didn't complain. If Trump had any accomplishments they would spend more time writing about that.

The good news is that Trump's approval ratings are down again. Newsweek is reporting that support for Trump's impeachment is now higher than his job approval rating. And we can thank the media's hand in that, exposing him for all the world to see.

Trump is attacking CNN. Why should they post anything good about him? When does he ever praise them for good reporting?

Come on, CNN went way overboard and Zucker knows it, that's why they had to recently let a bunch of people go. One thing about ANY news network, they will stand by their journalists as long as they are honest, truthful and show professionalism, if they have to back them up against any allegations or litigations coming their way, but on this one they couldn't. CNN had too many stories it had to retract and when that happens, you bet someone will get canned.

The three journalists included Thomas Frank, the writer of the story; Eric Lichtblau, an editor in CNN's investigative unit; and Lex Haris, who oversaw the unit, the network had earlier reported. 

The Russia-related story, published on Thursday, reported Congress was investigating the ties of a Russian investment fund to an aide of President Donald Trump.

CNN had reported an internal investigation by its management found that certain editorial processes were not followed when the article was published.

Also, there is firing of CNN contributor: Reza Aslan did not have his show renewed for his outlandish rants against the president, so CNN is in hot water now and with the looming merger with AT&T once they buy out CNN it's unclear what they will do with CNN and management, does Zucker stay or go.

CNN lost ALL credibility and solidified what Trump was saying about the network all along and CNN can't say otherwise with what's happened within the last few months.

Nothing wrong with CNN criticizing Trump, they should but they need to do it in a fair way and they haven't been doing that. They were caught lying and embellishing stories in order to get ratings now they they got caught and now you have this shake up at the network.

He only criticizes what he likes to call "fake media". Why should they do anything other than follow his lead?

Well, if CNN and the other networks want to be taken seriously by the public and this president, they just need to be fair and leave the personal attacks. What happened at msnbc was way overboard and he's sick of it and even if it is to a point embarrassing, when it gets to that level, Trump is just not going to take it. Again, criticize away, but leave the ad hominem attacks and Trump might simmer down.

The good news is that Trump's approval ratings are down again. Newsweek is reporting that support for Trump's impeachment is now higher than his job approval rating.

Liberals want a lot of things, impeachment won't happen and the Dems know it, why they have to moan and tell the public this fake garbage when they know they don't have the votes.

And we can thank the media's hand in that, exposing him for all the world to see.

For the fake news? It shows by how a bunch of these nut jobs are getting their walking papers. I would never call for any honest journalist to be fired, but what happened at CNN and now with Joe and Mika. Disgusting.

One of the fired ACORN workers sued O'Keefe for invasion of privacy; O'Keefe issued an apology and agreed to pay $100,000 in a settlement

-On January 9, 2017, Project Veritas operative Allison Maass was filmed attempting to bribe members of Americans Take Action into inciting a riot at Trump's inauguration

-On June 26, 2017, O'Keefe released a video on Project Veritas' YouTube channel that showed John Bonifield, a producer of health and medical stories for CNN, saying that CNN's coverage of the Russian investigation was for "ratings" and that the coverage was "mostly bullsh*t".[147] The video identified Bonifield as a "supervising producer", but left out he is a supervising producer of CNN Health

How do you know the nature of their comments? You don't even watch them.

Your information comes from Trump's tweets and his apologists.

I've listened to Joe and Mika. They haven't once attacked Trump's wife or child.

They have said some very informed things about the Trump and his family (mainly Jared and Ivanka, but occasionally the two brothers when they make public fools of themselves) who are in the spotlight and who are lying on a daily basis for Donald. Those comments were primarily on policies or on his outlandish behavior.

I don't recall anything personal, except maybe Trump offering to marry Joe and Mika now that he was president. He offered after Jared Kushner offered, a move to upstage Jared. They demurred about the offer because they didn't want their marriage forever associated with Trump.

Not much of what they have said put Trump in a good light because he is an idiot.

Regarding CNN lies??? Three people were recently fired for publishing inadequately documented work. That means CNN lies on a daily basis? No. You're watching too much Trump WWF.

Almost everything I have head on CNN has been reasonable and backed up on other news outlets. Sure, they hold Trump to his lies, but that is what a news organization should do. CNN also isn't just a bunch of commentators, like the sources for the alt-right. They have actual reporters.

Do you know how I know when Trump lies? When his lips are moving.

Really tough talk, Trump has crosshairs. Look out. He's a real tough guy.

Has nothing to do with being tough, it has everything to do with, I'm not taking your slanderous crap anymore.

Face it, you don't have any original thoughts and are just repeating what Trump's apologists told you.

You guys don't either, just the typical bashing, I hate Trump and nothing more to offer.

Writing an editorial in the WP about the whole thing is not treading lightly.

I saw them speak last week, they didn't seem like they were afraid or treading softly at all.

That's what they do, I get it, they need the circulation and those "clicks" Chi-ching!

Tried to find a list of Fox "News" lies?

That'll need deep dive sub to find them.

Hmm, negative inference.

Mika was speculating about Melania putting up with Trump. That is not especially disparaging. Sounds more like gossip.

Sure, she shouldn't have said anything, but they do know each other. They've known each other for around right years.

That speculation is pretty obvious to many people. Furthered by her staying at Trump tower (sure for Barron) instead of the WH, slapping Trump's hand away in public, and not speaking out on cyber bullying as the first lady who is supposed to be leading some kind of program against it, yet her husband engages in cyber bullying and outright bullying...

Did a Google search. Not seeing it. No trends. Nothing endemic like the alt-right. A couple of spins from alt-right sites who don't like the report.

Trump and the alt-right lie as a matter of policy. Now that they are policy makers, they still only know how to lie, so no real policies except reverse Obama.

Oh, I hadn't realized they moved their studios undersea.

Here you go, top 10 fake news from CNN in video format for easy viewing

Do you ever check out your sources before you post them?

What is the Duran?

The Duran was started in 2016 by a group of professional journalists and media gurus. We ask the questions and analyze the stories other media won't.

Sounds very transparent. I for one would like to know a bit more about the Durant.

Where are they headquartered?

Nicosia, Cyprus.

Yes, that Cyprus. The one with apparent Russian connections.

I can't make this stuff.

And they use CNN's integrity in firing staff that went too far as some sort of evidence CNN is all lies, while at the same time ignoring that Fox "News" only fires staff for sexual harassment, while letting lying go on unimpeded.

How so?

Mika was speculating about Melania putting up with Trump. That is not especially disparaging. Sounds more like gossip.

That's totally different she can create as much gossip as she wants, Mika's always done that and for the life of me, other than being the partner of the so called conservative Joe, I don't know why she is on that show. She should be sitting on the panel with the gossiping Queens of TV "The View" she'd be in perfect company with with Goldberg and Behar.

Sure, she shouldn't have said anything, but they do know each other. They've known each other for around right years.

Yes, so she could've called her up and say it to her face. I mean, I was taught to tell people directly how I feel and have done so all my life, Mika could've done the same. 

That speculation is pretty obvious to many people. Furthered by her staying at Trump tower (sure for Barron) instead of the WH, slapping Trump's hand away in public, and not speaking out on cyber bullying as the first lady who is supposed to be leading some kind of program against it, yet her husband engages in cyber bullying and outright bullying...

I am absolutely astonished! None of us know what the details of their relationship is and to spout this garbage without a shred of evidence is petty and fuels the beast of disinformation. It's NO different than when some of the conservatives were spreading that birther rumor without a shred of evidence. No one in the Trump camp confirmed or admitted to anything of the sort.

Since the media is controlled and comprised of 98% of liberals, why would it???

Trump and the alt-right lie as a matter of policy. Now that they are policy makers, they still only know how to lie, so no real policies except reverse Obama.

Dunno, dude....from them Wikileaks cables there was a whooooole lot of lying going on over the last 8 years that is now coming up to the surface like a decaying fish.
