Every other POTUS since the invention of TV could handle press briefings without having a meltdown, but not this guy.

The questions were stupid and inflammatory. How would your react if someone asked you "When did you stop beating your wife?" I, for one, am happy to see a President with the backbone to shutdown ill-intentioned members of the press corps. Treat people civilly and you will generally be treated civilly in return.

Three female so called reporters quickly organized into a wolf pack trying to attack the president with their argument ? They lost their minds trying to grandstand !!! Its never their job to argue with the President !!! Any reporters that didn't get a chance to ask one of their questions can thank the wolfpack's grandstanding which brought an end to questioning !!!
In the future they should act like reporters and not wild animals and remember their job isn't to end the press briefing and prevent others form getting their questions answered !!!

Did you even see this?? No one asked him any "stupid and inflammatory" questions. Once again this president shows he is a spoiled manchild & when he can't handle things he reverts to temper tantrums.
How you supporters excuse this behavior is beyond me. The bar has been really lowered with this guy.

I don't know why Trump gives them a press meeting day after day when all they do is to try and get him with a GOTCHA!

Trump is the perpetual optimist that thinks the media is going to treat him with a bit of respect tomorrow but they are so consumed with hatred for the man that they can't help themselves.





The Lefty media thinks that they are scoring points against Trump for their party but what they are actually doing is turning Trump into a victim, the underdog and people like to help people that have been bullied...





Trump should stop the press conferences and see how the media responds.

She was clearly trying to make it appear he didn't care that people were still dying. It was obvious. Both doctors said the death counts will lag behind case counts dropping. She should know that.

The reporter asked him a straw man question and then proceeded to try to paint him as racist by taking off her mask (shudder!!) Revealing that she was Asian and asking him if there was a reason why he was answering her in that way.

The set up was as plain as day.



And how you excuse this type of behavior from the media is beyond me.

The bar has really been lowered with this reporter.

He did stop them for a while, after he made a fool of himself suggesting disinfectant injections as a treatment for COVID19. Lol. But he just couldn't stay away from the cameras, could he?
