Cult? You were 100% wrong in 1000s of posts as to why he wasn't going to win. This speaks for itself.

He'll be accused of having something to hide and too much secrecy. Then people will really be worried about the government and start coming up with looney theories.

The press says they are there in case something happens and they can report on it. Yet they have been there so many times and failed to report on it accurately. They show more favor to inventing what happened and reporting with a bias to remove the truth of events.

As far as a daily press briefing. Do we really need one. Why not just put out a daily press statement. That would get the job done. Then hold a press briefing as he thinks necessary to keep people informed on news and developing situations. Trump has no legal obligation to the press traditions. They haven't earned any special consideration. The more Trump communicates directly with the people the better off we will be without the bias added by the press.
Please explain how he would communicate "directly with the people" without the press?

I voted YES as I feel Trump should eliminate many of the left wing lying media outlets!

The same way he did it before the election.

Yet another disgusting comment from you.

So...what about the Hispanics, Blacks and Asians who voted for Trump? What about those who are college educated? Do you consider all these people to be "white trash"? If so, that's very racist of you.

Contempt for the American people noted. Lets see how it serves the left if they keep it up until the next election.

Some posters are butt-hurt because they spent months bashing Trump and calling him every name in the book. They told us all that Trump had no chance at becoming president.

Be patient with them. It's taking them a long time to eat all that crow
