Still can’t believe that Bloomberg violated a firm OFF THE RECORD statement. Will they put out an apology?

I love Canada, but they’ve taken advantage of our Country for many years!

They shouldn’t be allowed near anyone in the White House again. In fact, Trump should block Bloomberg from access.
Why not?
Did you think that Bloomberg is your friend?
If it can be used to hurt Trump, there is no such thing as “off-the-record” - and he should be well aware of that. They did the same thing to Reagan.
I’m not a big fan of the “3D Chess” theory, but this may have been intentional. Trump knows reporters are sleazebags.
If that’s President Trump’s Twitter feed I can’t believe all the barking mad moonbats posting there. He really needs to find another venue. But I guess he’s not allowed by the federal judges to take down their comments or to get off twitter entirely.
PDJT is a master at stealing the news cycle, and using the “fake news” dishonorable, vicious traits to his own benefit.
PDJT is way above their sordid little leftist propaganda league.
He continually turns their intended negatives into overwhelming positives.
Easy Fix,
Disallow Any one from Bloomberg and any outlet that reprinted the off the record quotes from ALL Press events, revoke their press credentials, BAN them from ALL government buildings.
Problem Solved
Well played, Mr. President!!!!
Not only did you prove to the world that the US media is NOT to be trusted, that they will do anything to undermine you, but you got your message out also. LOL
Trudeau and the rest of the Canucks got their “outrage” out of their systems (they had to for home consumption) and now they know where they stand WRT negotions with our President.
Again sir, WELL PLAYED!!
If that is the case, it reminds me of the tactics the US used to break Japanese coded transmissions in the run up to the Battle of Midway.
Put out open radio messages about a broken water pump at Midway island and then listen for the item to appear in Japanese radio traffic. Gotcha.
President Trump: Never, ever trust the press. They are not your friend. If you say it, they will report it in the worst light possible. If they think you say it, they will report it in the worst light possible. If they think they can make it up, even though you did not say or do it, they will exaggerate what they are making up and report it n the worst light possible. They are not your friends. They are not your supporters. They are not friends of America.
1) exposed the slimeballs in the MSM &
2) let Canadia know time is short for a deal
Trump sure is making a big deal of this. It’s almost like he wanted Bloomberg to leak the info.
John Micklethwait, the editor in chief, was at the interview. He had to know. He should be shamed and forced to resign. He’s an America-hating socialist Brit who used to be editor in chief of The Economist, once a center right serious publication and now also a TDS magazine. What ever happened to journalistic standards?
From my understanding they gave the Canadian paper a transcript verbatim of the entire sit down. Wouldn’t surprise me if they recorded it. Obama despised the Press and he had glowing coverage. He had no problem realizing these people are not your friend. The idea this happening is some plan is wishful thinking at best...perhaps Cohen and Omerossa too.
Brilliant move Mr. President. Got his negotiation message out there and knowing the sleazebag press would not take it off the record exposed them again for the lying scum they are. The extra brilliant part of this is it was intended to show that President Trump has the nation’s interest first beyond any globalist agenda. Bravo!
DJT: bloomerg is part of the media. They cannot be trusted.
They are the enemies of America because they purposely destroy our democracy where people (voters) need access to reliable information to decide who to keep in office and who to boot out.
Combine their total control of the TV broadcast airwaves, half of the cable channel, 90% of academia, 90% of Hollywood, and 90% of major social media and search outlets and you have a monopoly that needs to be regulated.
We need an Amendment to the Constitution for our electronic age: Freedom of Political Information Access.
There's no way the Founding Fathers, were they alive today, would allow major communications guardians to block the contrary opinions from even being heard.
This the electronic equivalent of blocking Freedom of Assembly. Maybe when Kavanaugh gets in the Supreme Court, we'll finally have our day to see cases that break this hideous blocking of free-loving voices.
Every smart politician should understand that “Off the Record” statements with the press do not exist.
