He's not capable of answering real questions about issues he's either caused, or will be a part of as POTUS, as is evident by the q&a today with Netanyahu.

Trump continues trend of calling on conservative media
He's been responding to bloggers more than to actual journalists.

But you were not curious as to why your hero Obama and Hillary Clinton were treated by kid gloves when it came to questions from the media?

I'm not asking about Hillary since she's not--nor has she ever been--president. Obama did not completely avoid conservative news in favor of liberal news outlets.

I'm asking if POTUS Donald's purposefully avoiding all but conservative news is concerning.

No. You're wrong, or you're completely lying. When did Obama or Clinton ever go on a show or get interviewed by a real conservative news outlet? And on the rare occasion it did happen (and the only one I am aware of is when Obama went on the O'Reilly Factor), of course they were treated very well because of who they were. Has any "news" outlets treated Trump with any respect whatsoever? Ever, in all his years of public life?

They don't "harm him" because his zombie followers would never, ever disparage their Dear Leader. They are more than willing to commit Hari Kari as they follow him over the edge.

Not so much for thinking people.

And to answer your question again, NO.

The same could be said about Obama and both Clintons, and their "zombie followers".
