I had a million thread titles to choose from....

he didn't know what the CBC (Congressional Black Caucus) was. hahahaha Then he asked the reporter to set up a meeting with them. She said No, I'm a reporter, I don't set up your meetings.

Had to put it on mute and get some wine. He's been at it for an hour. OK OK! I agree, just stop it. Feeling like an abused person now

Yes yes yes. Anti semitism being followed up.

and he just called Schumer a lightweight.

Possibly never heard of the Congressional Black Caucus
Patronising tosser.
Good jurno picking up the anti semetic question.....Not answered though.

He is so condescending - he constantly is asking them "do you understand that? Do I need to explain that??"

FFS, they likely understand it far better than him.

I wonder if there is someone in finitely cleverer than me and good on US politics who can suggest how they think this car crash of a presidency is likely to evolve. I find it incredible all this is actually happening

"we're going to stop crime." "I didn't divide the nation"

ABC news saying "what a remarkable window into the state of the mind of the President."

Does he think he is a God? He says he's not going to try and stop crime. He is actually going to stop it altogether.

How?

So what happens when the next gun massacre happens....

Hahahaha... Dermot on Sky says it's one of the most unusual conferences from a sitting Pres he has ever seen in all his life. Rambling, incoherent, rude, and nothing about policies or answers, all about his style of talking.

Astonishing. Dermot says that too.
Hitting out
Bombastic
Aggressive

And no detail. Just a subtext of getting his own back on the media.

All correct.

Ginger I love that ABC comment. Sums it up doesn't it

Okay, I have to ask this. Was anyone REALLY disturbed by him saying this:

"I don't have to tell you what I'm going to do about N Korea. I don't have to tell you what I'm going to do about Japan. I don't have to tell you what I'm going to do about Russia."

He's lost it.

Yes Ginger. And talking about nuclear holocausts too. Saying we've got good nuclear weapons. Russia has got good nuclear weapons. Nuclear holocausts are not good. (you don't say)

Then shrugging his shoulders.

Donald Trump IS helping business. SNL ratings. New York Times subscriptions. And after that press meet stocks in Xanax are through the roof.

He's not just failing to condemn anti-Semitism, he's basically claiming it's all made up and fake. And yet Netanyahu praises him. Sheesh.

Trump asks a black reporter about meeting with the CBC on inner cities: "Do you want to set up the meeting? Are they friends of yours?"

Does he really not drink?

"It was unhinged, it was wild" - @jaketapper on the Trump presser

Ginger
I sincerely hope he is saying that because he doesnt have a clue as opposed to formulating some hair brained, crackpot scheme to send the work into WW3

Well I guess Alec Baldwin has got his sketch written for SNL now...

What would be genius would be Baldwin delivering Trump's speech today verbatim & journalists chipping in with "are you on crack?" And asides like "do you think he really believes this shit?" and "yeah, like that's gonna happen!"

And the fallout begins.....

It's quite hard to get people to read about UK by-elections when the other option is to stare slack-jawed at another Trump press conference.
