This is a pretty glorious middle finger to the media. Between this and his Twitter, it's pretty clear Trump has no intention of allowing the media to be a middle man between him and the people. What do you think of this?

One issue here is when you do this it means every single media company will spend all day looking for dirt and they tend to find it.

[GodEmperor]

Awesome. Love it

I think you bought into Fox News rhetoric a little too vigorously, Trump makes himself look like an idiot all on his own. No "liberal bias" or "media spin" needed, just look at his Twitter. He acts like a child.

Interesting to see that comments and upvotes/downvotes are disabled. I thought the alt-right considered that censorship and pitched a fit anytime anyone on the left did either of those.

Is this another instance of, "It's different when Trump does it!" hypocrisy?

Also, only halfway through and this is painful to listen to. It's like listening to a third grader say what they'd do in office and chuckling because they clearly have no idea what the hell actually goes on.

"Clean" coal? lol, glad people are still pushing that myth. And he thinks coal and shale will bring millions of "high paying" jobs to boot.
Two regulations removed for every one added? Hello arbitrary and absolutely dangerous policy
Day one executive actions? I thought Obama was evil for using those and that the GOP didn't want to use that kind of "dictatorial" power
Investigate abuses of the visa program? you mean the programs he's extensively used in hiring so many foreign migrants to work at his companies?
Ethics reform? Has he even looked at how corrupt and how many conflicts of interest exist with him, his children, and some of the early picks he's made or is floating?

What a complete and utter joke.

Because clearly that have nothing else to do at all, and that there aren't huge conflict of interest problems with Trump given that he's refused to detach himself and his family from their company during his presidency. Including him wanting top-secret clearance for all his children who will be running his company because...I don't know. And him having Ivanka sit in when he met with Prime Minister Abe to send the message that the US government and Trump's businesses are closely related. Or him possibly already pressuring foreign leaders to give in to his business demands, which is campaign has denied but I don't think anyone believes given how they've been the single most dishonest presidential campaign in the past century, and perhaps ever.

How can you give a presidential address when you're not the President yet?

I've heard to much of Trump's BS during his campaign to feel like watching anything he says without it being condensed. To much "hot air" and not enough material.

[Underverse]

Uh, no, he did this so he could read the speech written by his advisors off a teleprompter, because he's a shit orator.

You can tell, because he used the word 'bilateral'.

Naw, he read of queue cards. Remember, he wants to ban teleprompters because people sound like robots when reading from them. That's why he uses queue cards, they're way more authentic.

[GennGreymane]

Uh.... okay?

[Underverse]

Lol. He does sound like a robot.

[Teph]

It's hard to take him serious.

[Linkedblade]

Why didn't you just post the YouTube link

[Crissi]

So instead of filtered Trumpidity, we get unfiltered Trumpidity. Its still the same Trumpidity, to point and laugh over.

[Dezerte]

At least then you can't blame it on media bias whenever he says something stupid.

[Dug]

-The lobbying thing is such bullshit. Pure lip service. He failed the drain the swamp just stop saying it.

-Steel, coal, shale just lol none of that is coming back. Sorry podunks but you all got conned

[Darkeon]

I can't help but to laugh at all the Trump haters in these threads. So hilarious!

[Bullarkie]

No mention of when Mexico will start construction on our new wall.

[sarahtasher]

Just to be sure, you DO know that you could watch all POTUS adresses already ? (C-SPAN and co)

That's never stopped Trump supporters from denying stupid shit he's said in the past when it's been pointed out, so it's not like that would change.

"No, he's note a white supremacist! He just retweets factually incorrect white supremacist propaganda! Gosh, stop being so mean to him!"

No mention of when Mexico will start construction on our new wall.

I know, he's already walked it back and implied that parts would be a fence rather than a wall, and other parts would have no wall at all. It's almost like he lied through his teeth to sell that to a ton of gullible people who honestly think that somehow he'd be able to get Mexico to pay for his fantasy wall. Almost...

You are right. It's hilarious to say people scream with foam in the mouth ''corrupt media'' when someone said something mean about Trump, while they believe like the Gospel Alex Jones and Breitbart.

If Milo snapped his fingers and gave the order to believe that heliocentrism is ''SJW'', the usual people would start immediately tweeting LULZ KUPERNIC BETA CUCK !
