Trump makes a joke, liberal news outlets go nuts

Last night Donald Trump spoke at the annual Gridiron dinner. While at times serious, he took the opportunity to poke fun at a lot of people, himself included.  Among the remarks:

“So many people have been leaving the White House,” Trump said at one point, joking about this week’s spate of White House departures. “It’s invigorating since you want turnover. I like chaos. It really is good. Who’s going to be the next to leave? Steve Miller or Melania?”

Referring to his son-in-law Jared Kushner’s loss of security clearance, he said, "We were late tonight because Jared could not get through security."

Addressing Vice President Mike Pence’s supposed hostility toward the LGBT community, he said, "He is one of the best straight men you're ever going to meet. ... He is straight. Man." Trump also said, "I really am proud to call him the apprentice."

And perhaps the best one;
"I just want to say this, this is one of the best times I've had with the media — this might be the most fun I've had since watching your faces on Election Night."
There was a lot of humor. That's not how it was reported in the Moronic Media.

CNN:

President Donald Trump bemoaned a decision not to investigate Hillary Clinton after the 2016 presidential election, decrying a "rigged system" that still doesn't have the "right people" in place to fix it, during a freewheeling speech to Republican donors in Florida on Saturday.

In the closed-door remarks, a recording of which was obtained by CNN, Trump also praised China's President Xi Jinping for recently consolidating power and extending his potential tenure, musing he wouldn't mind making such a maneuver himself.
"He's now president for life. President for life. No, he's great," Trump said. "And look, he was able to do that. I think it's great. Maybe we'll have to give that a shot some day."
Mediaite:
President Donald Trump seemingly voiced interest in making the commander-in-chief role a lifetime position at a closed-door fundraiser on Saturday night, praising Chinese President Xi Jinping for recently consolidating lifetime power in his country.

“He’s now president for life,” Trump said at Mar-a-Lago in an audio recording obtained and published in transcript form by CNN. “President for life. And he’s great. And look, he was able to do that. I think it’s great. Maybe we’ll give that a shot some day,”

The Mediaite piece came complete with a stern and serious looking Donald Trump

The difference is that Nixon and Agnew were wrongdoers. Trump has done nothing wrong.

They were only “worse” because they won, and Nixon and Agnew were not Trump and Pence.

And that was Liberal Democrats acting like ‘hyenas’ during Nixon and Agnew.

Liberals just can’t handle not being in charge and leaders...they have a problem being in second place...

WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THESE LIBERALS IN TODAYS WORLD , STAY IN SECOND PLACE...

The man has a way with words that is hardly equaled.

Am I the only one who thought he was spoofing about the people who really wanted Zero elected for life? Like the MSM?

I turned on FNC this morning to see if there was any ACTUAL news that happened over night.

Since I, by choice, don't have a TV to watch, I've found a quick perusal of libertydaily, orbusmax and One America News Network is all it takes to get up to speed.

Of course, if you're a glutton for punishment, there's always, Drudge, Google, Bing and Yahoo :)

Trump deserves a good laugh after the meat grinder he's been through.

The ones who need to get a life are the media and the Trump haters.

They take themselves too seriously.

Trump is like Moses, and the MSM/Hollywood culture is like Pharoah. Trump is turning their rod into a snake, and their water into blood. And they’re like “Uhhhh, how did he do that? Must be the Russians”.
