They don't mix well.
That's the deal.

Trump lies and demands that his press secretaries do the same.

There is a Stephanie Grisham sighting on Fox & Friends, can a press conference be far behind!

more fake news....

Obama was hiding out most of the time.



Trump triples Obama in reporter Q&As, but gives half as many interviews

From that piece: "Grisham did not respond directly to the challenge, but told CNN’s Jake Tapper: “If you have $200,000 to play with, why not just help children because it’s a good thing to do? Donations to charity should never come with strings attached.”:
The bold really ticks me off when people say it. It is like, "We will take your money to buy more books for needy children, but if we decide to spend it all on Incredible Hulk comic books, that will be OUR decision."

Phooey on that! If I give a large sum to charity, I want to be able to specify how it will be spent -- unless it is just a "general" type of donation.

But, but Obama!


This is the record coming up on one year, what's the problem.

There was a sighting this morning on Fox & Friends, boy that took some courage, I guess appearing on Fox now passes as a press conference.

He may not have official press briefings but he is always speaking to and taking questions from the media. He is very accessible.

Yes usually with a helicopter in the background, great venue for a 5 minute press conference.

That's ok...we'll pass. The press has been rendered MR IRRELEVENT -- much like the guy who is taken dead last in each year's NFL draft.

Stephen King just needs to stop. I don't want a press briefing from whatever totally obvious liar that is now passing for "press secretary." It's just pure entertainment to watch that mess. I'm glad they don't do it anymore. It's just one lies carnival show out of the many that we already have.
