#3 "The meeting was a total disaster."

That depends on your viewpoint - from mine, I'd call it a complete success.

#4 All of which were triggered, had to run to their safe space and blankies and teddy bears.

Don't forget the warm cocoa and the petting dogs while you're wearing your Pajama Boy onesies, you bunch of fucking wimps - now get the fuck outta here! I have a bum leg, and I'm so certain I'd kick you candied asses from here to Nantucket fucking Island.

We won, deal with it, as another politician might say.

#5 Copyright back to 28 years, debundle cable and satellite. They'll feed the pain since they're all part of a conglomerate that has been living on that rent-seeking for generations.

#9 Since the MSM has already claimed that Trump is a planetary extinction event, it's kind of hard to see where they go from here.

"He's a planetary extinction event and he isn't nice to us!"

He's also put the MSM in a trick-bag: after this meeting if they say bad things about him it looks like they're retaliating; and if they don't it looks like they're afraid of him. What would Insty say -- Troll Level: Galactic Grandmaster?

#10 David Muir asked how are you going to cope living in DC while your family is in NYC?

None of your damn business, Pretty Boy.

#11 Trump also *bypassed* the media by issuing a video describing his transisition and plans for the first 100 days.

#12 The meeting was off the record, meaning the participants agreed not to talk about the substance of the conversations.

And here it is. So, liars.

#13 "It was like a f‐ing firing squad,"

So no shit, there I was...

#14 Brian, the trick is to move serpentine.

#15 Trump also *bypassed* the media by issuing a video describing his transisition and plans for the first 100 days.

He ought to stream his inauguration as well - no MSM broadcast.

#16 I really love the rope-a-dope he is playing with the media. Not only does he sidestep them to give an untampered message to the public, he also causes them to winge themselves inside out and gives him press about things he would rather have them report on.

He is playing them like a fiddle.

#17 Donald Trump is Bricktop: "Do you know what nemesis means?"

#18 All these alphabet channel people sh!t in their messkits when they did not cover the election so that people could be informed. Instead they were the propaganda arm of the DNC. Now they want to get back in. Problem is that once you betray trust it is almost impossible to get it back. Trump is done with them. They are washed up as far as he is concerned. He doesn't them. Just let em cry, maybe they won't pi$$ so much.
