If the media won't confront tRump about being a liar for saying he knows nothing about WikiLeaks...

then they should demand that he be removed from office due to having dementia and being unable to fulfill his duties for office. Anyone that said they love WikiLeaks 141 times only 2 and a half years previously and now says they don't know anything about WikiLeaks is definitely suffering from extreme short term memory loss. The media or Congress MUST confront tRump on this statement that he knows nothing about WikiLeaks. He either has to publicly admit he's lying, or be removed from office due to suffering from dementia.

he won't let them. He has the last word and always cuts them off. There is nothing they can do there. However, for that lie to be so easily illustrated, and the straight face and bewilderment in which he said he knows nothing about WikiLeaks, he has to be suffering from dementia. If he had said it with a smirk, we would know he was lying, or kidding. But he said it stone, cold serious, like he'd honestly never heard of WikiLeaks. I was shocked seeing it on the news. If you gave those clips to a psychiatrist he would be committed for evaluation.

Mr Trump - during your campaign you said you loved wikileaks and mentioned them over 140 times. We can show you clips of your comments about wikileaks. How can you now say you know nothing about wikileaks?

Directly ask him. Why don't they do that?

he would just ignore it was even asked and never call on that reporter again. That reporter's career would be toast, at least covering the White House. That's why I say they should ask the congress people if they are concerned that pResident tRump has forgotten that he stated he loved wikileaks 141 times during the campaign and now doesn't remember them. Do they fear he may be suffering from dementia? His demeanor answering the question was very serious. He did not appear to be joking.

unofficial official kick off to Campaign Season . Our Corporate controlled Media appears to have put a lid on the afore mentioned questions. Out of fear of losing mega billions in Trump Campaign Ads.

And the biggee is,all those massive tax breaks they helped past through their bought and paid for Congress in 2016.

Many have mention this possible scenario .
