>>>>Are you attempting to rationalize or justify Trump's press conference? Do you think Jim Acosta and CNN are the enemy of the people? Are you giving Trump a pass because you voted for this jackass and don't want to admit that it was a huge mistake? Do you know how long Jim Acosta has been in the business or any of his experience? Did you watch the other 90 minutes of that press conference? Do you think it's ok for the president of the USA to be talking to reporters as he did? This isn't about Trump's conflict with this one reporter -- it's a pattern of behavior and dangerous rhetoric when it comes to our media. If you feel the need to be bothered by a member of the press, may I suggest Fox's Sean Hannity - who seemed to think it was a good idea to take the stage and campaign with Trump a couple of days ago in Missouri - then called all the other networks 'fake news'. You see all the problems here right? Or are you saying that this is all ok?

>How did that work out for you?

Would of been fine if there would of been more people thinking like me and less thinking like you lol lol -- but I'd say it's worked out the same for both of us as we both have the same president :) -- except for the fact I won't have to answer to people 20 years from now and have to try to explain why I did something so dumb - so in the long run it will work out better for me than you.

..that being said - Trump's antics (like this insane press conference) has resulted in the dems gaining more than they have since Watergate -- and at all levels of government throughout the nation. I think this invalidates your assumption that this pattern of behavior by Trump is helping Trump for 2020 - or helping the GOP in general. I said that Trump was going to destroy the Republican party -- and based on what has just happened with the mid-term elections I'd say that is indeed happening. And now it's just going to get worse - and quickly too. Think of what just happened in Florida -- they just voted (by over 60% - which was required for it to pass) to allow ex-felons to vote once they've finished their sentence. Ok that is 1.5 MILLION new voters ...and if you examine the demographics of these 1.5 million people it's obvious that almost all of them that choose to vote will vote democrat (and you can bet your bottom dollar that MANY MANY of them WILL vote). Now look how small the margins are in Florida -- taaadaaaa that state is going to go from red to blue -- and if those people could of voted in this election (or many of the last ones) it would already be blue...so that Florida vote could turn out to be a real game changer. The list goes on and on. Trump said he wants to kick out all American's who were born here and who's parents were illegal immigrants. Here is an interesting stat on that -- it makes up 7% of the population. Gee how you think all those folks are going to vote now?
