Trump Slams White House Correspondents’ Dinner as ‘Fake News Prom,’ Will Hold Michigan Rally Instead

[txradioguy]

Just giving you the actual history of what Reagan faced, young lad. He faced a turd party opponent from the GOP. He faced a hostile media. He faced democrats, too. He probably had those within his party, leaking negative crap to the media about his every day.

And here you are repeating the unverified crap that was being leaked back then?

You're not giving any kind of unvarnished truth...you're peddling in gossip. 

The thing we agree upon, is he was a great President.

Yes we agree on that completely.

[goodwithagun]

Wow. I believe you have little memory of Reagan's times, when he was regularly accused of sleepwalking through his Presidency.

Dozing during meetings. Quitting in the afternoon, as if it was a mere 9-5 job. Remember? I do.

Once again, the mythology regarding Reagan exceed the reality.  And the Trump Bashing Obsession clouds the sanity, history, facts, in this Room.

Fake news!

[truth_seeker]

Seriously.... if you have to put Reagan down in order to build Trump up, you've already LOST the debate, IMO.

If you really believe stating what Reagan was accused of during those times, is "putting him down," there is not much I can do to make it clearer for you.

Well it sure as hell wasn't flattering.  Or are you now going to pretend it was?

You would not have gotten any static for that post had you not included these words:

All that I stated was true, and much more. You could look it up for yourself.  For me it comes from memory. And from having a book of Reagan's own hand written notes. And from being an adult voter in 1976, 1980 and 1980. Not to mention his time as California Governor before his Presidency.

Yeah... well.... I once walked out on a guy I had dated for a year because he made the mistake of bashing Reagan...lol.  Big mistake!

I think that's what's known as a backhanded compliment.

[txradioguy]

All of those accusations about Reagan came from the Dems and furthered by the MSM.

The Dems that actually believe that crap got their eyes opened after actually dealing with him in meetings in the Oval Office.

You're repeating Liberal unsourced BS to try and make your boy Donnie look better than Reagan.

I paid close attention during Reagan's time in office. So don't try using your seniority and senility as some kind of advantage to remembering the Reagan Administration better than I did.

And that shows exactly what ianwrong with you Trump worshippers.

How good or bad my day is doesn't revolve around what the chair warmer at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue does on any given day.

It's nice and sunny and a gorgeous day here on the banks of the Ohio River.

And it has nothing to do with anything Trump has or hasn't done in the last 24 hours.

You need to find a better source for your happiness.

I swear people are too wrapped up in this stuff.  My husband's family had a big family get-together last night at the usual place, there was good wine and food and a huge amount of fun.  Today, the husband and I found a park with hiking trails we didn't know existed.  Apparently no one else knows about it, either, because it was deserted, so we're taking advantage of having it to ourselves for as long as we can, lol.

The thought of actually being unhappy (or happy) based on politics, politicians, or any other person I'll never meet is...well.  Not healthy, I'll say that.

If something good comes from it all, then great.  Our employees are doing what they were hired to do. 

You guys have a good Sunday afternoon and evening.

@CatherineofAragon Likewise, I don't make and break friendships over politics, either.  There are a few exceptions to that rule, but it's not my doing.

I agree.  There are more important things than politics.

The cognitive dissonance around here regarding Prez Trump's success (North Korea)  is enough to make any lucid MAGA supporter go postal at times.

Ya don't gotta be a MAGA head to see that.  I, for one, am pleased to see good things happen, and like Reagan, I don't care who gets credit for it.  I'm not ready to pop any Champagne bottles yet, but things look a lot better than a few weeks ago.
