I mean, with power comes responsibility. No, not addressed at Trump. CNN has a lot of power, and the consequences of abusing that power were displayed last night. This is just an extension of that. I don't think Trump or any president takes issue with media seeking the truth as much as when they push a counter narrative without good facts. Sure, administrations and politicians like to spin things. But the story was so absurd and unsubstantiated that it shouldn't have been published as it was by CNN. Buzzfeed isn't the same caliber as CNN. If CNN wants to be held to a certain prestige, they have to hold themselves to a higher standard than buzzfeed. Or they will be treated like buzzfeed.

Didn't watch but ended up reading a transcript. Some testy exchanges, ridiculous superlatives, but overall, not something I have any concerns about.

Except that isn't how the press should act and it certainly isn't how a president should act.

Unless you are Forge and have a wet dream for chaos, you should not be happy with this.

The reality is CNN needs the access. Even fox news went soft on Obama his first few months when his administration was talking about how hostile they were to the admin. It basically is a warning shot. Not one necessarily saying you have to give favorable coverage (I'm sure Trump would fully support that), but it definitely warned them for playing fast and loose which is what they did.

Seems the stock market liked what Trump had to say in his press conference.

Dow is down 175 today. So, today the market doesn't like what Trump had to say? Help me out here with the logic.

One of the more ignorant comments about markets on here.

Ahhh, common on man. What's wrong with going full Godwin in your first press conference since being elected?(well, pre-press conference tweet to be exact)

Can Godwin be called if Hitler is referring to himself?

but it also means that after a brief honeymoon he might struggle to enact a real policy agenda, insofar as he has one. governing is quite different from campaigning, and for him it's a lot less fun, and he's likely get both frustrated and bored.

Wow, all the way down to 19,807... holy crap... what will we do?

One of the most irritating habits that developed with the 24 hour news cycle and internet is people who monitor the market daily. They seem to be under the impression that what occurs on a daily basis will have a YUGE affect on their retirement 20 years out. If the market isn't crashing the market is fine. And a 175 point drop, in today's numbers is a blip.

In addition, if the market is down because of what The Donald said who gives a rats ass. Maybe some of the corruption in our country, corruption caused mainly by the links between government and big business and politicians will be put in check. That would be a great day and would MAGA!!!!

What a nightmare this press conference is. I keep looking for a silver lining. Trying...
