(60,010 posts)He is at serious disadvantage at them, cause the press asks questions, and even if he ignores all but a few favored "press" it will show.
I am glad he is savaging the press. When he froze out CNN they started to actually report real stuff about him.

I watched video of the comment, can't really tell what Trump meant.

(7,413 posts)In this case it didn't appear to be directed at the press, he answered a question they asked about Iran sanctions. Everyone seemed like they were just going about their business in the video. Seems that's how everyone else in the press took it as well. There are enough outrageous things happening everyday that there really is no need to invent or try to manufacture outrage.

(33,959 posts)they need to report the news....not his propaganda pieces.
Reuters is reporting on him like he is an authoritarian.
There is NOTHING that would get under this thin skin than the majority of media outlets shutting him out and only reporting what THEY uncover. He CRAVES the attention. He would learn a hard lesson.
Too bad the media is more about ratings than facts though.

(2,056 posts)Send press to all his stupid stuff and record it for proof of the shit he pulls...but DON'T air any of it. Instead, fill up the airwaves with protesters, opposition, resistance and everything that portrays him negatively. Show him that he is NOT in charge of the PEOPLE's country.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalin's_cult_of_personality
(The Soviet propaganda) portrayed (Stalin) as a caring yet strong father figure, with the Soviet populace as his "children".
-snip-
The image of Stalin as a father was one way in which Soviet propagandists aimed to incorporate traditional religious symbols and language into the cult of personality; the title of "father" now first and foremost belonged to Stalin, as opposed to the Russian Orthodox priests.
