Why is he so afraid of the press? In my lifetime a President has never done this before. Has he ever given a reason for not doing this?
1. Why should he
2. The press is opposing him on every level and trying to get him out of office.
3. We're doing things differently now.
4. Twitter works just fine to get his message out.

Because he is a terrible off the cuff speaker and he is not as skilled as someone like Huckabee Sanders in the art of lying to people. Why do a press conference if half of what you say is going to be jibberish and the rest lies and misrepresentations?
Trump is not a very intelligent person, but he is smart enough to know that the more he speaks the more it becomes obvious to everyone else that he is a complete idiot in way over his head. He only cares about communicating with his cult anyway - which can easily be done with Twitter or by proxy via Fox News or white nationalist websites.
probably doesn't want to appear as an idiot who can't think on his feet or remember what his policy was a half-hour ago

I'd bet my twenty buck tax cut that this is the reason.
Though I disagree that he is not skilled at lying. He's had plenty of practice and a lot of people believe his lies.
