YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On Thursday, Donald Trump held his first solo press conference as president. He began by announcing he had nominated Alexander Acosta to be labor secretary nominee, but then soon began an extended attack on the media, accusing CNN and other outlets of pedaling fake news. We air excerpts of the press conference, which went on for 77 minutes.
