Trump lashes out at CBS reporter for asking about his missing month: 'You know you're a fake -- you

Trump lashes out at CBS reporter for asking about his missing month: ‘You know you’re a fake — you know that!’

Published 6 mins ago on April 13, 2020

At Monday’s White House coronavirus task force briefing, President Donald Trump lost his temper and got into a yelling match with CBS reporter Paula Reid when she asked what he did to prepare for the pandemic.

He repeatedly touted the fact that he instituted travel restrictions from China. When Reid asked, “What did you do with the time that you bought?” the president began shouting at her.

“A lot, a lot. In fact we’ll give you a list,” said Trump, adding that he believes CBS is a dishonest network and “The people are wise to you … you know you’re a fake — you know that!”...................

CBS Reporter Paula Reid asked Trump:

“Tens of thousands of Americans are dead… How is this rant supposed to make people feel confident in an unprecedented crisis?”

Trump responded by ranting some more.

When especially a woman gets under his skin.........

Perfect, and women in congress and the press should be doing it daily......

.........Let's see if Trump pulls her white house presidential credentials, by tomorrow.......

I mean really, if we have to put up with Heir Lardass's Pravda like "so-called" news crap every day, we should at least have some fun fucking with him! Seriously.

Another fun thing would be for the White House media pool and their cameras, to announce to Trump's minions in advance, that the first time he tells a lie, or begins any campaign rallying under the pretense of the press conference being a covid19 news conference, they are all gonna get up and walk out of the room.....

AND THEN HAVE THE BALLS TO DO IT.........

Then the white house media immediately go on screen and on cameras to explaining why they did it.......

My fantasy will.never.happen. Know why? The entire media in the U.S. is 80%+ owned by Republicans, and the reporters value their jobs...Period....The reporters have each fought long and hard to reach that status position, and are gonna be damned if they are gonna lose their positions, regardless of the harm being done by them not doing a realistic or truthful reporting job......

CNN and MSNBC pull the plug on Donald Trump after he plays deranged propaganda video during press conference


https://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/cnn-msnbc-deranged-propaganda-video-donald-trump/27560/


Bill Palmer | 6:13 pm EDT April 13, 2020




Donald Trump opened his press conference today by making clear that he’s not firing Dr. Anthony Fauci. As Palmer Report explained last night, that was never going to happen, because Trump knows firing Fauci would send his approval rating hurtling downward, thus ending his already-weak chances of reelection. But after Trump moved past the Fauci thing, he went completely bonkers while discussing other topics.

Trump went on a completely incoherent meltdown involving Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, and Chinatown that we can’t even begin to figure out how to parse. Then Trump began playing a lengthy propaganda video which pushed the false claim that he proactively shut the country down at the start of the coronavirus crisis. The video used out-of-context remarks from various people like Andrew Cuomo and Phil Murphy, who have in reality been very critical of Trump’s handling of the crisis.

CNN and MSNBC both cut away from the propaganda video, which was literally a Trump campaign commercial, and was full of false and misleading information. .................................

I might be wrong but Trump could lose all 50 states. His help in making sick 100s millions of people,
killing 10s millions of people world wide, as America falls into a depression/recession, and now he is
pushing his hydroxychloroquine snake oil so that he, Jared, and his jailed lawyer Cohen can make
money off of that toxic crap. We and the world should not be going through this C-19 hellscape right
now but Putin put him into the White House and Trump pulled the biggest fuck up of all times in his
handling of C-19. For the love of dog we were part of an international team, Predict, (the black guy's idea)
that had a lab and scientists on the ground in Wuhan, China until Sept. 2019 and they were looking for
coronaviruses but Trump pulled the funding for the organization. The world wide cost for the international
teams was just about the same as we have paid for Trump to go golfing all those time.

Trump rages because he knows he is caught and the CBS reporter had him dead to rights because he
did nothing for 2 + months as the C-19 was coming. BTW I think he knew about it (C-19) in Nov. of
2019 because that was when our intel picked it up.

he actually stop? The research to figure that out is beyond me, but a pro should be able to put it together.

I think the CDC had already been screening people over there too. After China had the lockdowns, how many people were even trying to get here? I bet mostly people that were allowed and also exempt from the restrictions. Did most of those people get in? He may have actually blocked very few people.

and I like to think I did, it had more loopholes than the Volstead Act. "You can't make wine but you can make 200 gallons per year of non-intoxicating fruit juice with any percentage of alcohol you want. You can't buy whiskey for recreational use but you can buy as much as your doctor will prescribe to you for medicinal use. You can't buy beer and you can't make beer, but you can buy hop-flavored malt syrup, corn sugar and brewer's yeast to make hop-flavored malt cookies." (Seriously. The recipe was on the side of the can. Apparently they were awful.) In short, if you couldn't figure out how to get legally stewed every night Prohibition was in effect, it was your own damn fault.

The only people his "ban" actually restricted the movements of were people who didn't want to come to the US in the first place.
