(CNN) - After three days at the United Nations meetings in New York City, President Donald Trump held a news conference Wednesday night. It was only the fourth solo press conference of his presidency and was, reportedly, his idea. The goal, ostensibly, was to fight back hard against the allegations made by three women against his Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

But, like almost everything that Trump touches, the 81-minute extravaganza turned into the Trump Show. And what a show it was.

Below, the most quotable lines from the President.

1. "This is quite a gathering. Wow, that's a lot of people, a lot of media."

And away we go! (Also, never forget this: Trump is always aware of how much media coverage he draws because he understands the more media coverage, the more relevant he is.)

2. "They would like to see me lose an election because they've never been challenged like this."

Who's Trump talking about here? The Democrats? No! China.

Not at all. My comment was regarding Chris Sisszilla.

Chris Sleaze doesn't know who president Trump is talking about when he says they want him to lose the election because they never been challenged before. He's talking about media idiots, foreign countries, friend and foe, uniparty douchebags, and every other lowlife who has been taken advantage of America for several decades. That's who Chrissy.

[Alas Babylon!]

Hey Chris Lizard, just deal with it! You’re such a melting snowflake...

The things you find repulsive in Trump many millions find funny and interesting.

CNN is ATT

Nope. The deal has not happened as of yet.

The AT&T-Time Warner marriage was completed this spring soon after a federal judge approved it. But government antitrust regulators filed to have the judge's ruling overturned, setting the stage for a landmark competition case in the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington.

Won't ever read CCN's bullshit, but will reiterate this:

  .. tick .. tick .. tick ..

“I watched the President’s press conference. It was outstanding.”

A fitting followup to his masterful speech at the UN. I’’l bet the $hit that makes up the ICC and the UN “Human Rights Commission” are left wondering who will pay for their apartments, limos and supply of goats in NYC. The only thing I wished that he’d said is: “now that 25% limit on our UN “peacekeeping expenditures” will go down an additional ten percent next year if you don’t clean up your acts.”

FU CNN. MAGA! Trump 2020!

“Snarky liberal garbage”

Yes. And petty. Juvenile.

So at what point do we classify progressives as adolescents ?

Thanks for the update. This thing is quietly dragging on.

Many months ago, I recall ATT investors not happy about the CNN factor.

I recall ATT investors not happy about the CNN factor.

As an inside investor I'm not happy. Yes, it will help my bottom line, but I do not believe it to be ethical. The monopoly angle should be enough to deter the merger. But my thought is that a content provider should not also be a content creator. The gentlemen at the top in AT&T are fairly white hat men, but that may not always be the case.
