Fraudulent prez

Let's just hope that trump do not confiscate the translators notes, the public have the right to know what went down at this meeting

The Dictator has the Rude Journalist removed from the room, never to be seen again. President Trump would ask them to leave but please send a colleague that knows how to politely interact to take their place.

Kim's probably thinking.......hey, that's my job.

That’s ok they will cover his impeachment hearings.

What is the WhiteHouse and realDonaldTrump trying to hide from the American people? Before journalists were banned by the WH, citing 'shouted questions', they were evicted from their hotel that they set up in advance utilizing considerable time and expense! PhotoOpPartTwo

Our press has no manners. GOOD!

Trump is a traitor!

ElectBetterUSA This White House and our idiot in chief continue to trample on 1st Amendment rights. Trump has established new norms in pushing the limits of the Constitution - interested to see if we the people can move the needle back. We must Resist IMPEACH

How do I love thee...let me count the ways ❤️

Good, freedom of the press doesn't give them the right to interrupt or be rude.

No, because of shouting about things unrelated to the summit. A disrespectful display by the fake media. Vietnam should have arrested them for public disturbance and ordered them out of the country, immidiatly!

My dinner with dictators

Twitler strikes again

Of course they did. He's going to show Kim that he has power too over his minion's.

While Congress Remains SILENT

White House would like to ban all journalists besides Fox News

Check your manners,seekers of a scoop

Media should never actually be the story...and yet off rails screaming/crying fits/mic grabbing- finally called out. EnemyOfThePeople

Good

Dinner for Schmucks

Is it called “manners”?

Excellent.. and they wonder why Khashoggi is no longer with us.

How obnoxious and disrespectful of these so called journalists. Probably part of the fake news media MAGA

FreePress in a BananaRepublic DictatorMeetup Who needs free Press?

Recklessly shouting at hostile nuclear threats to own Drumph.
