A defiant Donald Trump criticized the news media for letting Hillary Clinton slide without a press conference in more than 200 days as he addressed the press in Miami.

{mosads}”It’s been 235 days since crooked Hillary Clinton has had a press conference and you as reporters who give her all these glowing reports should ask yourselves why. I’ll tell you why: Despite the nice platitudes, she’s been a mess,” Trump said.

“Honestly, the reason is there’s no reason she can answer questions because the job she has done is so bad.”

Trump went on to slam the Democratic National Convention for not mentioning the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria or law enforcement officers and added that the party didn’t “have an American flag on the dais until we started complaining.”
