The White House tried to move a reporter to the back of the press room, but she refused. Then Trump walked out.

The Donald became over exposed giving daily pressers. The pressers devolved into a Sarah Huccabee Sanders fiasco with WH correspondents making speeches, asking gotcha questions, demanding Trump confess to failure and then distorting his message.

Trump did very well having pressers with a helicopter in the background. He should return to that format.

ps.

The press has lost too. Their partisan behavior is despicable.

‘And it’s time to move to OPening up America !!’

except a governor tried to do just that, and Trump’s unhappy with him, and lets the whole nation know about it...

Its like the republican presidential debates being hosted by liberal commie network cretans, makes no sense. Do the rat debates have republican conservative hosts like rush, hannity, tucker, ingram? Yet at these press conferences they allow these cretans in to try and trip up the president and badger him

the national political class operating out of DC has very effectively isolated Fox News as a wingnut outfit, while burnishing the reputations of the traditional networks...the people you mention would be dismissed from the start if they attempted to moderate a presidential debate...

Obama personally banned WND’s Les Kinsolving outright... Not a peep from the WHCA.

I thought you kind of had to do what they say in the White House.

The Press Corps assigns seating in the room.

These are the same dishonest people who will “moderate” the presidential debate. They will also leak the questions in advance to their preferred candidate. There will be no consequences when their dishonesty is discovered.

I agree. Trump should adopt the approach used in the NFL Draft for his pressers. Send them all home and make them Skype in. He selects one at a time. No more shouting or interrupting him.

Penny’s Tom Wolf has questions mailed to him, then they are fed to him, and probably answered by, his handlers.

Why does the OAN lady stand in the back?

Get the press f***ers OUT of OUR White House!

I agree that Trump needs to follow Newsom’s procedures for press briefings. They become increasingly hostile and the only reason the press critters are there is to poke the bear.

Better defensive posture ? Working with Leftist Loons, one can’t rule out a physical attack.

Why does he call on them? Doesn’t Trump get to call on the reporter to ask the questions?

The pressers should be done via Skype (due to Wuhan Virus). He selects whom he wants to ask the question.

Remember at the beginning of his administration, he had “lesser known” news sites ask questions ? What happened to that campaign promise?

He should do it on line where they can moderate the briefings.
