1. I don't believe that they should attend any of the WH briefings

and the news organizations should pull out of the WH completely. Cover Congress, the various Departments and skip the WH. The poor dear would be lost without his megaphone.

4. Me too, have been saying that for over a year. But the response always is "that'll leave it all up

....the RW press like Fox News".

Doesn't really matter though, she isn't answering any questions anyway.

3. If the press had walked out on this asshole...

...at the start of his campaign, he wouldn't be in the Oval Office today. The press bears enormous responsibility for the outcome of the 2016 election. Not sole, but considerable. They legitimized his farce of a campaign.

"Oh, look. Trump is breathing."
