Can the white house press corps please start

every question session with trump or Kalie with, can you give an exact date when your healthcare plan will be released ? Can you tell me the latest news regarding the bounty paid by Russia to murder American soldiers ? Follow up with questions about Sen. Johnson and Grassley reviving Russian information to hurt political opponents. And some pressing questions about the virus with some actual answers instead of the standard we're doing a great job. Just a start but if you cared you know.

being a news reader not a journalist. Maybe that's what they want in the end. Face time but no spine or dignity.
