Et tu, Matt Drudge

WASHINGTON (AP) — For the first time, President Donald Trump cut off his daily coronavirus task force briefing on Friday without taking any questions from reporters. It may not be the last time.

There have been discussions within the White House about changing the format of the briefings to curtail the president’s role, according to four White House officials and Republicans close to the White House who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. The briefings often stretch well beyond an hour and feature combative exchanges between Trump and reporters.

Trump was angry after a day of punishing headlines Friday, largely about his comment at the previous evening’s briefing wondering if it would be helpful to inject disinfectant into people to fight the coronavirus. That idea drew loud warnings from health experts who said the idea was dangerous and sharp criticism from Democrats.

Several articles ripping him apart.

7. I have been watching Druge for about a month and it has been slowly turning away from pro-Trump

articles, even on the Daily Caller also. Word must be out.. The convention might be interesting.

8. The only Trumphumper I know...

...is also a big DrudgeSucker.

He started turning against MF45 over a month ago, because of what the Drudge-ster was publishing about the Trumpandemic.

11. Apparently Drudge fell out of favor a while ago with Dump

I don’t keep up with GOP cretins and their middle school inner party politics but the times or Politico had a story that was posted here about how Trump has become annoyed with Drudge over the last 6 months.
