'Fooled the press again!' CNN expert slams media for covering Trump's 'lie'-filled speech

A Democratic strategist laughed Thursday night on CNN when asked if Donald Trump can stay on message before laying into media outlets that he said were duped into giving the MAGA leader free air time at his news conference Thursday.

Keith Boykin told panelists on "NewsNight" that Trump didn't hold a news conference — he held a campaign rally speech at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club — even bringing MAGA supporters.

"He fooled the press again — once again — by claiming he was going to have a press conference. He spoke for 45 minutes before he even allowed a question to be asked. And when he did, he was just filled with lies over again!"

Boykin pointed to a clip in which Trump said, "Virtually 100 percent of the net job creation in the last year have gone to migrants."

Trump then said, without evidence, that he's heard the real number could be "substantially more than — actually beyond that number of 100 percent."

Boykin mocked Trump's comment.

"I guess I need my calculator so I can go shoplifting with Donald Trump because clearly you can't have more than 100 percent of jobs going to migrants. You can't even have 100 percent of new jobs going to migrants. It's not only mathematically impossible, it's just plain stupid."

He continued, questioning, "How does this guy get taken seriously? How is it that he is a presidential candidate for the highest office in our country when he can't even complete a press conference without spewing lies and misinformation and obvious falsehoods?"
