This is your new president, America. His administration spends their first day in office whining because the media accurately reported how few people turned out to see him inaugurated. He is the most unpopular president to take office in modern history, and he's pissed because the media reported it.

The reign of the Adolescent-in-Chief has begun.
If this was a movie it would be funny, but as it isn't not so much.

I didnt vote for him, and I agree blatant lies are not good. But I would put the Benghazi lies in a much worse category.

I really don't think he's going to last that long. He's a very weak person. Most bombastic bullies like him are. I don't think he's going to be able to handle the pressure.
So he'll either self destruct in some fashion (looks like he's a drinker ... that bloat of face, etc. - in any case a very glutinous and indulgent person) or do something so outrageous ... cross the line in such a huge way ... that even his die hard supporters cannot continue to deny the fact that this guy is nuts and potentially dangerous and at some point he'll be impeached and removed from office.

I just don't get stuff like this. I'm not a Republican or Democrat, just someone who believes in free market capitalism and other economic issues. But there are pictures and videos...so how is the coverage wrong. Seriously, there weren't large crowds at the inauguration. Can someone who is drinking the Trump kool-aid explain this thinking to me?

This absurd stuff also makes me start hating this administration. Srsly, why are you complaining about the media reporting the truth.
This is a very important question.
Maybe it's been answered in this thread, but it deserves to be answered again.

It's a disinformation campaign.
This "size of the crowd" issue is a small one. But, it'll pay dividends for him later.
Trump is taking office amid a slew of scandals and impossible promises.
By discrediting the media now he's setting the stage for later when the media reports damaging facts about his administration.


Every third-world dictator knows this trick.



Clinton and Trump were two horrifyingly bad candidates that represented all that's wrong with American politics. The election of Trump is getting more disturbing every day.

Well, as I've read the posts here, NO ONE was comparing the two!

I think the media is going to learn how to cover him and he won't be allowed to continue this b.s.. Or he'll continue but the media (and the people themselves) will learn how to be a lot more discerning and intelligent about the information they're receiving.
It may take awhile but i'm already hearing very intelligent and articulate media folk who are well aware that they have to up their game and that they are dealing with an entirely different scenario re; trump.
And it's getting more disturbing but along side of that is the ground swell of awakened and awakening protestors who are in it for the long haul i believe.

Well Sean Spicer is being mocked on Twitter now. It might have been the "Period!" that did it.
