Trump press conference transcript

On edit, mustn't forget h/t to KittyWampus

[femmocrat]

1. First rec!

I think he meant "ass-hat."

[Initech]

2. He referred to himself in his own press conference?

[DesertRat]

6. Yup, a couple of times. In the 3rd person.

Another gem of his from the press conference "No one has ever had crowds like Trump has had."

We're screwed.

[eShirl]

3. you can even see the puppet strings

[Jacob Boehme]

11. And here I thought he was a hand puppet

With Pootie's hand up his..... well, you know.

[aggiesal]

15. That's because Putin is short for ...

Put In.

The Donald is so F#*ked.

[Martin Eden]

4. I'd like to be a fly on the wall at Langley when CIA agents talk about that statement

For once they'll agree with The Donald.

[dmr]

5. Me too

I had to mute the TV while he rattled on with his silly talk.

What a insane difference from President Obama last night.

[Grammy23]

22. I couldn't help but think about the difference between the two men.

Having watched President Obama give his thoughtful and well chosen words of farewell on Tuesday night, I watched in horror as Trump conducted his "press conference". What a contrast! We are so screwed.....

7. K&R.

[Scurrilous]

8. K & R

[Floyd R. Turbo]

9. In other words,....

a tool!

[LeftishBrit]

10. Correct a typo: The last two letters of 'asset' were accidentally put in by mistake.

[Zambero]

12. And That's precisely how Putin perceives Trump

a useful idiot but an asset nevertheless.

[Mister Midnight]

13. Digby: We dont know how much is true, but we know James Comey behaved shamefully

Those salacious reports on Trump's ties to Russia are murky rumors — but Comey's villainy is clearer than ever

[DeadLetterOffice]

14. Yeah, whoever cleared that little gem before hand...

... is likely no longer on Team Trump.

I was listening to the presser in my car and nearly hit a tree when he said that bit -- he is clearly an idiot (not that we didn't know that already...)

[aggiesal]

16. Who's the asset for whom? ...

I believe that McCheetohead is the asset for PutIn.

Idiot!

[malthaussen]

17. There's a reason he only wears red ties.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

[Bob Loblaw]

18. I'd say he's a little

over half right. He is an ass.

[tclambert]

19. That's funny, Donny, 'cause that's exactly what Putin's intelligence people call you.

[MADem]

20. Sorry, Donald--I think Old PeePee The Frog, there, means assHOLE! LOL! nt

[Warren DeMontague]

21. I think it's called a "Freudian Slip", actually
