Trump: 'We've learned how to live with' the 'fake news' media

Trump on Friday railed against the media, joking that his administration and its supporters have "learned how to live with them."

"Look at the number of the media back there. Fake news," Trump said during a rally in Lebanon, Ohio, his third rally this week.

"You go back and they’ll say, did he say this or that or this," he added. "That’s okay, you know what, we’ve learned how to live with
them. We don’t like it, but we’ve learned."

Trump has repeatedly railed against the press throughout his presidency, continually referring to them as the "enemy of the people" and frequently lashing out at publications and their reporters, including The New York Times and CNN.

And twinkletoes is campaigning. For an election more than 2 years away.

I suppose it is pointless to remind him of:

I would rarely leave the White House because there’s so much work to be done,” Trump, 69, tells ITK. "I would not be a president who took vacations. I would not be a president that takes time off.”

“You don’t have time to take time off,” Trump adds.

Or this:

“@BarackObama played golf yesterday. Now he heads to a 10 day vacation in Martha’s Vineyard. Nice work ethic,” Trump tweeted in August 2011.

Trump said last year that he wouldn’t have time for golf if he became president.

“I’m going to be working for you, I’m not going to have time to go play golf,” he told supporters in Virginia.
