Maybe Obama told him in his letter how to do just that.. Seeing he did it for 8 years

Now THAT is hysterical. Did Obama ever let anything bounce off him? He spent 8 years whining about Foxnews, criticizing Rush Limbaugh by name...

I'm still waiting for Trump to get HIS Nobel Peace prize.

Heck, if Obama can get one just for being a black president without having done one thing to earn it, surely Trump is due one as well?

I am a legend in my own mind!

you have to kidding you think a comment like this Obama admitted in a softball interview with Rolling Stone that he “disagrees” with Fox News. No shock there, but added he believes Fox has a “destructive viewpoint.”

is the same your press guy attacking the press corps ??

seems the hate is still strong to even make that comparison..

Trumps policy is to discredit the press and media who he see's as a threat and Obama's was his opinion (no policy)

one is far more dangerous than the other and if you dont know which is and why I cant help


Found these points on line.. they apply to this issue very well seeing many have forgot the rights behavior towards the 43r and 44th POTUS

many called him a muslim ,stated he wasn't born here ,people on the street carried pictures of him as Hitler, openly stated to oppose him at every turn ,

now the right want us to be tolerant move forward denounce protesters get over it accept it

now its your turn to tolerate the ridicule make no mistake every single thing that goes wrong in our country in Now Trumps Fault as mush as many thought it was Obamas

"you have to kidding you think a comment like this Obama admitted in a softball interview with Rolling Stone that he “disagrees” with Fox News"

Ummm...I hate to break it to you, but that is FAR from the only comment that Obama made about Foxnews. He whined about them non-stop, he kicked them off his plane when campaigning in 2008. He also excluded 2 other outlets that endorsed John McCain. You know, because of tolerance and such.

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Vote2...6156794&page=1


Here, Obama tried to exclude Foxnews from the pool of networks that shares costs of covering the White House. This was so outrageous, even the other networks which love Obama, stood up for Foxnews.

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/tipping-p...-for-fox-news/

Where do you get your news, if you genuinely believe that he only took one shot at Foxnews in 8 years?

Obama had every TV station except one, rooting for him. That wasn't good enough, all he did was whine about Foxnews.

Obama was a very thin-skinned, vindictive man who had zero tolerance for anyone who disagreed with him. We are bitter clingers, Foxnews was out to get him, blah blah blah.

PS ^^^^ First of all, Fox omitted the fact that it was the Treasury Department that handled the interviews, not the White House.

As i said the hate is deep with you! and your missing the Point Trump is After all Media .... and it is His policy.......

"You tell people a lie 3 times, they will believe anything. You tell people what they want to hear, play to their fantasies. Then you close the deal."

These are the words of Donald Trump (The Art of the Deal)

That's true, I have a lot of disdain for certain types of people doing harm, while cloaking themselves in liberal self-righteousness.

Again, you don't have to convince me Trump is a jerk. But the facts also show, that the stock market is way up, and he started creating jobs 2 weeks before he took the oath. He is an offensive jerk. But as far as the stock market and jobs are concerned, it appears that he is getting results.

Obama specifically said those Carrier jobs could not be saved, and he mocked Trump for bragging he could save them. Trump did it with a phone call. Tell me what that says about those two men??

"Trumps policy is to discredit the press and media who he see's as a threat and Obama's was his opinion (no policy)"

Obama was not just offering opinion. He tried to prevent Foxnews from doing it's job. That's an attack on the freedom of the press, and that's why Fox's competition stood up to Obama's totalitarian inclinations and told him that he couldn't do that. He was most certainly doing more than offering his opinion. And if you ihtnk those actions are no different than stating an opinion, perhaps you are the one who can't be helped.

You cannot repudiate me by posting evidence that Trump is a jerk, because I am not denying that. We agree on that. Where we disagree, is that you are fine with it, when Obama does the same things. Just like this women's rights march, none of those women care what Bill Clinton or Ted Kennedy did, but they are horrified about what Trump said. So it's OK when Democrats objectify women, it's only an issue when Republicans do it? It's a joke.

We are dealing with the Now.. you cant repudiate me as well by posting evidence of others short comings as an excuses for the justification to Defend The Trump Administration



Trumps Press Secretary and Trump himself said they are at war with the media

Yet White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs acknowledged to Fox News’ White House Correspondent Major Garrett that a low level Treasury staffer made a mistake in attempting to exclude Fox from the pool interviews.

And from this you conclude the following

"He tried to prevent Foxnews from doing it's job. That's an attack on the freedom of the press, and that's why Fox's competition stood up to Obama's totalitarian inclinations"

but Have Zero issues with Trumps Press Secretary statements Or Trumps comments about the media Shocking

Oh, that's perfect! So when Obama blamed Bush for everything that went wrong for 8 years, did you ever fault Obama for not "dealing with the now"? So it's OK when liberals criticize retroactively, but it's wrong when I do it.

And I'm not criticizing Warren Harding here. Obama is not ancient history - yet.

That was funny.

""He tried to prevent Foxnews from doing it's job" The entire press corps apparently agreed with me, because they all told Obama he could not exclude Foxnews this way. I guess you know more than they do about what happened.

"but Have Zero issues with Trumps Press Secretary statements "

I have no issues with those statements? I refer you to post #5 on this thread...I said the following, in reference to the press secretary:

"It was an idiotic thing to say. What gain is there, to lying about something so stupid and unimportant?"

I called Trump's press secretary an idiot, a liar, and stupid. Yet according to you, I have nothing to say about his behavior.

Do you see how blindly partisan you are? You can't even see where I am agreeing with you. Put down the Kool Aid for two seconds, and think.

Yes we were on the same page then another comparison thats clearly Bias

Trump : idiot, a liar, and stupid

Obama : totalitarian inclinations

Id be more inclined to agree if you just moved Trump down and Obama up
