When you deal with rabbits, it doesn’t take much to teach them not to screw with you:
Donald Trump put NBC’s “Today” show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie on the defensive Monday during a live telephone interview when he called the network out for promoting a CNN poll over an NBC poll because the billionaire had a smaller margin in the CNN survey. The exchange occurs at minute 4:36 of the 5:35-minute interview.
“The only poll you didn’t put up was the NBC poll where I’m way at the top, I’m much more than double,” said Trump. “I don’t understand why NBC is using a CNN poll, which was also a good poll, I’m leading by a lot.
“Why aren’t you talking about your own poll? Why are you showing a CNN poll, which is very good, but not as good as the one you put up yesterday?” Guthrie acknowledged that “I should have mentioned the NBC poll by name.”
Trump didn’t let it go. “You put up the CNN poll, you didn’t put up NBC poll and you’re the ones that are paying for the NBC poll so I don’t get it other than in the NBC poll is a very good poll for Trump.”
The CNN poll, conducted in the days after the second Republican debate, found that Trump continues to lead the pack of GOP presidential candidates, but that he dropped eight points, going from 32 percent support to 24 percent. In that same poll, Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina jumped from 3 percent to 15 percent.
In the NBC poll, Trump’s margin over Fiorina was much larger (29 percent to Fiorina’s 11 percent) and the billionaire gained 7 points from a month earlier when that poll showed him with 22 percent support of Republicans and independents.
God bless Donald. It is no wonder he is on top. No other candidate has the balls to fight back the way he does. Now this bimbo will think twice before she tries to take him down again, and so will every other aspiring leftist shill in the media. Hopefully Donald is also teaching every aspiring politician a lesson in how to win as well.

Screw with Trump in your paper, he cuts your press credentials and you get no coverage.
Man, this guy knows how to win. I haven’t been this happy about politics since… I dunno. Sometime in the 80s, when I was too young to know any better anyway.
It is amazing how enthusing it is to see the fight beginning, isn’t it?
