Real time UPDATES HERE

  • 11:15- before taking questions, Trumps spokesman addresses the Buzzfeed head on- catch words being "fake news". implications being Trump wont take questions o nthe topic as a lawyer will also be speaking later
  • Mike Pence takes stage at 11:17
  • Trump takes stage 11:20- starts low key and thanks the news organizations for not publishing it. takes swipe at Intel agencies casting possibility that they were behind it. - cant be true, it was never classified and public
  • 11:22- economic topics- self promoting on Car companies.- Ford would disagree with Trumps characteristic likely
  • drug company reforms touched on
  • Humility watch: more like tethered down
  • Superlative watch, Greatest, huge, best, incredible, massive ... albeit less effusive in his speech
  • ever notice trump has surrounded himself with a ton of marines? They are spook haters by nature and the most loyal military in coup or slander campaigns

Questions:

  1. Did he have a summary of the report adn related follow up- RESPONSE- I CANT TALK ABOUT CLASSIFIED STUFF.. THEN GOES INTO CALLING IT FAKE. 
  2. NOW ADMITS THE HACKING WAS LIKELY RUSSIAN IN ORIGIN
  3. DNC was asking to be hacked.. rnc took better defenses
  4. Question: Putin effect?- RESPONSE- PUTIN DENIES IT, TRUMP  REDIRECTS ONTO THE THINGS SAID IN THE WIKILEAKS RELEASES 
  5. QUESTION: Did putin help you? trump: "If putin likes DonaldTrump, thats a good thing"
  6. talking points seem to be redirect to the facts released, changing the narrative from putin is your pal to "do you think im putins pal?"
  7. Takes credit for anything he can. like knowing about cameras in russian circles
  8. Question: can you categorically deny any Russian ties- YES, nothing personal or business
