I like Sean, but it’s kinda like any one guy vs the entire press pool will always get overwhelmed, especially having to go into that shark tank day after day after day.
I say to make them submit their questions in writing.
A source, the source, close to the administration, they say, etc.
Checks out as made up news.
This unnamed “source” has been a busy bee. The source of a million quotes and not a single fact.
Is this The Source (Cole) from Charmed? He was/is a demon — that makes sense.
A source?
An anonymous source?
Seriously fake
I would agree with her on the leaks issue. They absolutely need to stop those leakers, unless the President is purposefully leaking, which I’ve read is a theory. Kind of a “John Miller” situation from Trumps past.
This might be something the First Lady might have said in passing. She may not understand what that press pool is like so blaming Spicer is just the obvious target if any of this is true. I can see where it might have a kernel of truth.
I agree it’s time to change how things are done. Reduce press briefings down to 2-3 times a week; maybe just Tuesday and Thursday. Accept questions in writing and also rotate who gets to ask the questions. Maybe it would reduce the gossip or maybe it would increase it.
One thing for sure though; this gossip aka leaks needs to stop. Our capital is not the place for that nonsense.
I like Spicer but I am not married to President Trump.
The leaks are not Spicer’s problem. Other people are leaking. How is he supposed to know who it is?
I think he gets a bad rap.
He’s been handling the press events just fine IMO.
Someone has it in for Sean. We’ve seen that for months.
Melania is the least of his problems, and I think it’s a stretch to think she’s involved here.
She’s not even in the White House.
DJT has himself a Nancy
Just don’t give Spencer’s job to Kimberly Guilfoyle because she would not be up to it.
Just don’t give Spicer’s job to Kimberly Guilfoyle because I doubt that she is up to it.
It is an easy assumption that the press & communications department at the White House is not up to the daily mortal battle currently being allowed in the Q&A session.
If they do not have *enough* access to the president, nothing can change. They are stuck out there with literally no armor.
TRUMP is a different kind of bird and the traditional press conference is not suited to his presidency. He moves fast and constantly, and that fact is the pivot point. The spokesters can not keep up. Neither can the media.
These media brats are show boating to pad their resume, move up the pay scale and jump their career ladder, while enjoying the camera. That has to be stopped dead. Tables need to be turned, and will be.
“Sources”
Once a week press briefings are more than enough with serious procedure regs. Anybody breaking the rules would have his/her press creds pulled and be barred from future briefings. This would stop the present kindergarten free for all process they have now.
A loving wife cares for and defends her husband.
This is not news!!
One of many examples
Remember Gisele defending Tom Brady after a stunning loss.
