Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump started his rally without the liberal press corps tonight in Laconia, New Hampshire.
Donald Trump joked about leaving the traveling press corps at the airport at the start of the rally.
“I have really good news for you. I just heard the press is stuck on their airplane. They can’t get here. I love it. So they’re trying to get here now. They’re going to be about 30 minutes late. They called us and said could you wait? I said absolutely not. Let’s get going. Right? Let’s get going!”
Of course, the liberal media reporters thought this was a horrible affront to their profession!
HRC didn't wait for her press corps a few times when we flew on two planes. But she never publicly bragged about it. https://t.co/8IOU6r9a0S

Big mistake. This will hurt Trump's poll numbers with the American people, who hold the press in the highest esteem. https://t.co/43EhYKJkyd
