As you all know, the media is in full-blown SH*T STORM mode about Trump’s meeting with Putin in Helsinki.
I’ll say this… I thought it was sloppy. It was FAR from his best work.
But here’s something else I know… Trump’s policies towards Russia have confirmed that he’s NOT letting them walk all over us. In fact, he’s been SIGNIFICANTLY harder on Russia than “wait until after the election” Obama EVER was.
Here’s this. AGAIN. For the people in the back:
You’re welcome.
Anyway, as he’s prone to do, Trump started his morning with a TWEET RAGE… claiming the liberal media will stop at NOTHING to push and further the Russian narrative:
The Fake News Media wants so badly to see a major confrontation with Russia, even a confrontation that could lead to war. They are pushing so recklessly hard and hate the fact that I’ll probably have a good relationship with Putin. We are doing MUCH better than any other country!

He’s right. This IS reckless.
The Fake News Media is going Crazy! They make up stories without any backup, sources or proof. Many of the stories written about me, and the good people surrounding me, are total fiction. Problem is, when you complain you just give them more publicity. But I’ll complain anyway!

It’s why many of his supporters like him in the first place… he’s not above fighting back.
And then there’s this, which honestly… I think was a good move, despite the hate he’s getting for tweeting a video from Fox.

“Trump recognized Russian Meddling MANY TIMES.” Thank you to @foxandfriends and @FoxNews for actually showing the clips. The Fake News wants no part of that narrative! Too bad they don’t want to focus on all of the ECONOMIC and JOBS records being set.

Will this change the left’s minds? Of course not…
But I’m still all for it. Because while I DO think he flubbed Helsinki… I stand by our President, and I agree with this message.
