Donald Trump kicks out Reporter! Nice. lol

"I am a reporter, an immigrant and a citizen. I have a right to ask a question." - Jorge Ramos

But he lectured instead.

So what do you want a free press or a press that fawns?

Great point. The RWs certainly were upset when they thought the press was fawning over Obama.

And I don't think the press is fawning over Trump. I think they see him as a phenomenon.

They see him as ratings gold rather than a phenomenon.

You are right. People will tune in to him and just listen to what he says. The interesting fact is they like what he says and he is the only one saying it. Many if the other candidates are essentially "done."

Nonsense, real press conferences are at times the only chance you get to flesh out a response. Speaker Boehner makes a point to only answer people who raise their hands and ignores people who speak up, sometimes that is the only way you get noticed.

Read what you wrote.
You said Boehner ignores people who speak up and answers those who keep still. and raise their hand. So, why wouldn't Ramos follow protocol?

It's the job of journalists to uncover news for their readers. When a public figure makes that difficult, it generates different strategies to make them speak up about what interests their readers. The easiest way is to shout or confront, but people like Trump are skilled at partial answers and press that cut meetings short when it appears they may compromise themselves. Getting the word out is difficult and cutthroat, what you saw was not unusual in the least, Donald Trump making the comment go back to Univision was not.

Trump has the longest press conferences than any other candidate. Why didn't Ramos just raise his hand and wait to get called on? If Trump was going to end the conference without calling on him, I could see him standing up and calling out. But not during the conference, no.
He broke the rules and was escorted back. Trump even welcomed the guy back to the conference. He then raised his hand and was called on. Was it that hard?

He probably should have, but he is a reporter. They are known for doing this kind of stuff. DT's behavior, IMO, is not very . . . presidential. He seems to lack some self control. Of course, he is a LOT more important as a presidential candidate than some reporter.

he's not a reporter..he's a talk show host and an activist for illegal invaders.

As I have said before...Mr Gracie has been a democrat forever. Not any more. He said he is voting for Trump.

Remember LBJ? He used to have reporters come in and interview him while he was in the bath tub! And he came right out and said "I've got those ******* where I want them. They will be voting Democratic for the next 80 years." Or something to that effect.

I agree. They are not, as it should be. I was not happy at all when certain members of the media did actually seem to "fawn" over Obama. I don't ever want to see that again.

I agree. That was the most unusual thing I have ever seen. After the Jeremiah Wright videos, how could anyone other than blacks vote for that guy? It threw me for a loop.

That's because you're politically ignorant.

Because it was a conflict of interest. Ramos knew that when he pulled that stunt. Repubs don't want Trump, Dems damn sure don't. He's getting it on both sides but so far, he is doing just fine in my opinion.
He is not a politician. That's what we need now. He can't be bought.

Isn't it both? If you want to be president you need to be seen as a problem solver taking care of the country not administering to partisan hacks. If you don't have the finesse to deal with problems all you are going to do is light fires.

I saw a report that Ramos's daughter was a Hillary Clinton staffer....

Link below is by way of Drudge...



Jorge Ramos, the amnesty activist moonlighting as a Univision and Fusion journalist, revealed in June that his daughter is an employee of the Hillary Clinton campaign.


Credit: Instagram/Jorge Ramos

In a statement on the Fusion website, Ramos wrote:

As journalists the most important thing we have is our credibility and integrity. We maintain that, in part, through transparency with our audience, our colleagues and our critics. That is why I am disclosing that my daughter, Paola, has accepted a position working with Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.


SURPRISE! Jorge Ramos’s daughter works for Hillary campaign

And the report was from Ramos himself so how is that a surprise to the asshole at Drudge who wrote the headline? What is your point?

 

[paddymurphy]

Well, if you're not supposed to be here, whats wrong with being told to get out? In general I mean, not necessarily Ramos....

So, if you are Hispanic, you are not supposed to be here?

 

[paddymurphy]

Trump, who is an American citizen, told a foreigner to get out of his country.

I fail to see the problem?? ......

He did not tell a foreigner; he told an American citizen.

I couldn't agree more. I almost feel sometimes as if DT thinks this is some kind of a joke or something. I don't know. There is just something about him.
