Anybody Else Ready To Demand Resuming Regular Presidential Press Briefings? (interviews, weapon)

[jeffrow1]

Its been about a year and Stephanie Grisham has yet to hold a single press briefing. The regular press briefings were a way to answer questions that the American people have on a regular basis. Guest visits to One America and Fox don't count for obvious reasons. Given the current state of affairs the people deserve regular, non 240 character answers to questions. Why are we paying for a press secretary and press office to not have a daily press availability?

[atltechdude]

Because our POTUS is an autocrat loving fascist wannabe who prefers to disseminate the news himself, not enable a free press.

[Annandale_Man]

The daily press briefings don't benefit anyone other than reporters trying to make a name for themselves attacking the president rather than asking relevant questions. There is no requirement to talk to the press.

Half the liberals are screaming in rage over President Trump tweeting his announcements, sometimes many per day.

The other half are whining that he doesn't tell the press enough about what he's thinking and doing, and how the country is doing etc.

Only in America.....

I think the issue people are expressing is that by limiting press briefings he is minimizing having to answer tough questions. When he tweets, it is a one-way communications. The interviews he gives tend to be only with "friendly" organizations.

Perhaps the press should subscribe to Trump's tweets. Then they would get all the information that normal people do.

Problem solved!

no

Why


ABC, CNN, CBS, NBC, MSNBC will report anything you want to know
and some they have not thought of yet.

TRANSLATION: Liberal fanatics (in this case the press) aren't getting the opportunity to lie and smear the President in front of a Presidential audience any more. President Trump has taken away their most frequently-used weapon against him!
