A lot of people here blast Trump because he fights back with those who slight or insult him. Apparently they think Trump should just ignore all criticism, kind of like tying his hands behind his back while everyone is allowed to take a swing at him.
The funny thing is, posters on here almost ALWAYS fight back when someone else insults their post. Shouldn't they practice what they preach?
Oh the HYPOCRISY!
He should learn to pick his battles. At this time, he looks like a bully.
"President-elect Donald Trump was not told about unverified reports that Russia has compromising information on him during last week's intelligence briefing, according to a senior intelligence official with knowledge of preparations for the briefing.
A summary of the unverified reports was prepared as background material for the briefing, but not discussed during the meeting, the official said. During Trump's press conference Wednesday morning, the president-elect said he was made aware of the information "outside that meeting."
A 35-page memorandum published by BuzzFeed on Tuesday includes claims that the Russian government has been cultivating, supporting and assisting Trump for five years — even obtaining compromising information in an effort to blackmail him. (BuzzFeed is partially funded by the parent company of NBC News.) The document, which was not prepared by the U.S. government, contains obvious errors. It was originally generated as part of opposition research by anti-Trump Republicans and then shopped by Democrats."
"Two U.S. officials told NBC News that materials prepared for Trump in advance of last week's intelligence briefing included damaging allegations from the memorandum — unverified by American intelligence agencies — about his dealings with the Russians.
Officials prepared a two-page summary of the memo for Trump's briefing Friday at Trump Tower in New York. The summary was an "annex," or addendum, included in the "supporting documents" that accompanied the classified briefing report.
While multiple officials say the summary was included in the material prepared for the briefers, the senior official told NBC News that the briefing was oral and no actual documents were left with the Trump team in New York. During the briefing, the president-elect was not briefed on the contents of the summary.
"Intel and law enforcement officials agree that none of the investigations have found any conclusive or direct link between Trump and the Russian government period," the senior official said."
you mean CNN actually released the report that was leaked from our intelligence agencies? OMG! I was so wro....oh wait. no im not. CNN reported on EXACTLY what it was, and where it came from. they were reporting on the news. Not their opinion, not something they made up.
Seriously, if you want to call out someone as being wrong, back your argument up. Otherwise you're just the guy standing on a corner yelling.

Of course he should just ignore it. I hold my president to a higher standard. If he's going to get down in the mud like the rest of us, then he shouldn't be president. Suck it up and and take the high road. Some may just respect him more if he did that. Lashing back makes him look week. Did Obama ever lash out at all the insults he and Michelle received the last 8 years. And there are too many to list. Obama was a class act and let it roll off his back. And this is what I expect of my next president. Unfortunately, this won't be the case. Who knew Trump was so sensitive that he couldn't take any kind of criticism at all. Republicans catch phrase these days is calling democrats snowflakes which really makes me laugh. We just elected the biggest snowflake to our highest office.
I would like to see Trump tone it down a little because he does come off as being defensive. On the other hand, it works both ways. If the liberals and the media were more accepting of the fact that he WILL be the president and stopped trying to undermine him at every turn, that would certainly help.
Most of Trump's comments are responses from the things other people/sources say. It has gotten to the point where you just can't tell what is true, or not true, and much of it still looks and sounds like the liberal left hasn't gotten over the fact they lost.
Trump doesn't remember his own words even when documented and lies all the time. Yet the "liberal" media never calls him on it. I think he has gotten off pretty easy. Or do trump's lies not count? If is it just better to use alliteration and use the phrase "liberal liars."
