Considering how much he brags about his "success" as a businessman, one would think those questions would pose no problem for the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

Doesn't mean he has to LIKE the questions. But it does mean he has to keep his cool and respond like a grown-a$$ adult. Trump can't do that.

All of us as adults have had to learn to deal with people who annoy us on the job. It's time for Trump to grow up and do the same.

I sure hope we never again see any of posters defending Trump's behavior have the AUDACITY to refer to Millennials as "weak" or "spoiled" or "childish," etc, because they have no business doing so (no, I'm not a Millennial).

They can ask all the stupid questions they like, Trump won't roll over like Bush. We see them for what they are and opine accordingly. If you think what reporters like this are doing is reporting then you and I have a very different opinion on what it is to be a reporter.

Go Trump.
Exactly. What's so wrong with that? Nothing!


These libs are blaming the victim, Trump. Aren't the libs anti-victim shaming? Hypocrites!

I think he ran to promote his brand and to be able to whine, after losing, that "the system is rigged" until taking his last breath.


I don't think he thought there was a chance in H E double toothpicks that he would win.


There is a picture of him in his 'war room' on election night when he realized he was going to win. He has a 'deer in headlights' look on his face in that picture.
Couldn't agree more. Remember when he met with Obama at the White House shortly after the election? LOL. He looked scared to death. He knew damn well he was in over his head.

And he's never had the capacity to keep his cool the way Obama almost always did.

So asking for assurances for Americans who are scared is a stupid question. Got it.

The man asked a simple question. Blaming? Shaming? No. He asked what Trump would say to assure Americans. As usual, he's got nothing.

If I responded the way Mr. Trump did to a customer or media asking ANY question, I'd be fired.

This is what happens when you have a president who thinks he has ultimate power.

Why do you continue lying? It's been pointed out many times what was actually asked.

Expecting a President to be "above it" is one thing, expecting him to lay down and take the abuse is another.

Asking "why are you giving people a false sense of hope" is pathetically partisan, Report based on the facts. There's a way to get answers without creating a lie and expecting it to be answered.
Are there problems with the reporters too sometimes? Absolutely.

But the President of the United States is the most powerful man in the world. He should display leadership. It is the duty of the press to question everything the government does. If you want to say they treated Obama with kid gloves, fine that’s a problem. But to say any government official is treated unfairly is nonsense. There are better ways to answer that question.
