RUSH: You know, I’ve noticed something that Trump does with these press conferences, and it was hot. It was like 86 degrees when he started. He was out there 38 or 40 minutes. It was 90 degrees when he’s wrapped up and headed to the helicopter. He was sweating profusely but not nervously. Just hot out there. He had sweat dripping down the face; you could see it starting to sweat-stain the dress shirt the president was wearing.
But the hair remained intact and did not become helmet hair. It didn’t get wet. The president has that down pat. But you know one of the things I noticed? You know, there’s no White House press briefing anymore. They don’t do ’em. They don’t get together in the pressroom and 1 o’clock every day with the media asking questions. Guess what we don’t see now? We never see the media on TV. We never see them. Trump has totally taken away their star turns.
He comes out of the White House on the way to the helicopter, he takes questions on the way, but the camera is always on him. We never see the Drive-Bys. All we do is hear them. And I’m telling you, they sound like a bunch of spoiled-rotten, impolite kids, all of them shouting their inane questions at the same time. But you never see their faces. Trump has taken away their face time in context of White House press briefings.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Now, throw this picture up, Brian. We put a picture here in the switcher. For those of you watching on the Dittocam, this is what I’m talking about.
This is what it looks like now. Trump leaves the White House on the way to the jet. That’s the Drive-By Media, the press gaggle, shouting their questions. You’ll hear it in a minute. “Mr. President! Mr. President!” They’re shouting like a bunch of little spoiled rotten kids. But none of them are on TV anymore. He has taken that away from. This is a still-shot photo. This is not a video still shot. The only shot that was made available on TV today of this press availability was straight on the president from behind that gaggle of Drive-Bys.
President Trump Delivers a Statement Upon Departure
We’ll post this at RushLimbaugh.com shortly so you’ll be able to see it there. Not all of you are watching on the Dittocam. But this is not happenstance. It’s not accidental. This has been done purposely, you know, they had these people like Jim Acosta and April Ryan and the rest of these egomaniacs showing off in the pressroom simply trying to make names for themselves.
Who could ask the rudest question? Who could express the greatest amount of disgust for Sarah Sanders and Trump? So they simply took it away from ’em, and this is what the press gets now. And they are not on TV. And believe me, particularly for the television Drive-Bys, being on TV is everything. Face time is everything, and the Trumpster is artfully denying them that which they love.
Since the Women Acoster, this was a better idea.
Takes the spotlight off the loser media, I like this
Looks like a ballgame crowd there!!
That’s a lot of people.
They don’t get together in the pressroom and 1 o’clock every day with the media asking questions. Guess what we don’t see now? We never see the media on TV. We never see them. Trump has totally taken away their star turns.
...
They don’t ask questions. They debate on behalf of the Democrats.
Ari Fleischer suggested a year or two ago that the WH stop giving the crooks face time.
Another thing Trump does is he gets the generators on the helicopter going so it’s difficult to hear the Leftist pigs. That’s a good one too, and it seems to keep them from debating.
Reagan used to use the helicopter so he could ignore Sam Dolnaldson’s questions.
This is one reason why I despise all the purse dogs here on FR yapping about all the reasons they won’t vote for Trump in 2020. It’s pure stupidity.
I love him, I’ve never seen a president work this hard in my lifetime, including Reagan. I love what he’s done with the economy, I always wanted to see how a business man would do it, and I’m not disappointed!!
Here’s the presser on the WH youtube channel. Everyone who voted for Trump should be subscribed to the WH youtube channel.

Check out post 7, what Rush didn’t show is the crowd of citizens, bigger than the press.
If they don’t get face time it will effect their salary.
No more nice A/C for these creeps. And I can’t wait until it is 15 degrees F outside and they have to wait an hour for the President. Glorious.
Since Sarah Sanders left, I have never even heard from the new press secretary. In fact, I don't even remember his or her name. But this is obviously by design.
The treatment of Sarah Sanders by the WH press corps was absolutely despicable. The WH press corps deserves to stand outside in the heat and I hope DC has a very cold winter as well.
Come to think of it, I haven’t seen April Ryan’s pig snout in a couple of months.
“This is one reason why I despise all the purse dogs here on FR yapping about all the reasons they won’t vote for Trump in 2020. It’s pure stupidity.”
I’m seeing it more and more here. FR has become a haven for trolls. We need sharper mods who have the courage to give them the boot.
I love Trump too but I love 2A more.
Trump could fall over tomorrow from a stroke or something. Then what are you going to do? It’s the principles that endure.
Think of it this way, if he blows 2020, he can try again in 2024.
Amen on that. Best president of my lifetime, and that is not intended to diminish Reagan in any way. But Trump has been awesome. If he gets his full two terms, he will have fundamentally changed America for the better. In fact, it could be argued he already has done that.
Trump not being around is much different than him running and doorknobs not voting for him in 2020. I just had a long argument here with someone who said they would do that. I think that would be utterly stupid to hand 2020 over to teh democrats because you for mad at trump and then sat on your dead butt instead of voting for him.
Wow.
He’s like a rock star.
In a suit :)
Most of them work for TV stations. Seems to me like Trump isn’t keeping them from “TV Face Time”; Their employers could give them all the “TV Face Time” they want.
Watch the video of the scrum in post 7. The new press secretary is the gal in long dark hair with aviator sunglasses, Stephanie Grisham. She’s the one who shoved the NK bodyguard aside when Trump was at the DMZ. Here’s the video, she shoves the guy at 00:35; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcbxD4ynLIU She did that so the US press could get into the room with Trump and Kim. Awesome!
Also watch the black guy in the scrum video - he’s nodding in agreement, and getting a big kick out of trump taking it to the press.
