Trump clashes with media in first news conference

buzzz worthy. . .

President-elect Donald Trump held his first press conference from Trump Tower in New York on Jan. 11. The PEOTUS indicated he has avoided pressers because many news organizations do not report news concerning him fairly, which has in some ways forced media to gather quotes from Trump from Twitter, changing the way presidential news is traditionally covered.

Things got heated between Trump and CNN's Jim Acosta when he refused to allow the reporter to ask a question, claiming his outlet reports "fake news." Acosta fired back with, "Since you are attacking our news organization will you give us a question?"  Acosta shouted the same question several times. Trump never answered.

One of the more pressing questions about Trump is whether there is a conflict of interest in him running the country and his business.  Trump said he could run the country, but does not want to.  He said his sons will run the Trump organization and will not dicuss it with him.

Sherry Dylan was invited to the podium to explain there is not a conflict of interest in the arrangements Trump has made.

To a question about the tax documents he never disclosed, Trump said he does not think the American people care about his tax returns.
