Trump Mocks The Press For Missing Rally

Donald Trump
Donald Trump has made no secret of his distaste for the mainstream news media, but Thursday was the first time he ever started a speech without them.

NBC News reports Thursday night in New Hampshire, Trump began his rally without dedicated reporters present — then he laughed about it.

"I have really good news for you," Trump said immediately upon taking the stage. "I just heard that 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 gonna be about 30 minutes late," he continued. "They called us and said, 'Could you wait?' I said 'Absolutely not.' Let's get going right? Let's get going, New Hampshire."

The crowd looked back toward the riser with laughter and gleeful expressions, according to reporters who do not travel with the campaign on a campaign-run and organized charter.

Reporters arrived just in time to hear Trump's signature sign off riff about making America safe, strong, and great again. He made no mention of their entrance.
