Trump & Pence Meet With Far-Right Radio Host Michael Savage

[Initech]

Days before blasting comedian Michelle Wolf for her “filthy” jokes about his administration at the White House Correspondents Dinner, President Trump played host to a radio personality who has claimed that Democrats want to “enslave” white people and once lost a television program after he called a caller a “sodomist” and told him he should “get AIDS and die.”

As we’ve mentioned, far-right radio host Michael Savage scored a meeting with Trump in the Oval Office last week, which he said lasted 30 minutes. He also tweeted a photo of himself meeting with Vice President Mike Pence and said that he was at the state luncheon honoring French President Emmanuel Macron.

Last year, Savage claimed that he spent “over an hour” speaking with Trump in a visit to the president’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

Trump appeared a number of times on Savage’s nationally syndicated radio show during his presidential campaign, where he speculated that Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia had been murdered, wondered why many Jewish people supported Barack Obama, boasted that Russian President Vladimir Putin had called him “a genius,” called for “tremendous surveillance” of mosques, claimed that immigrants are often “not well people” and assured his supporters that he had no plans to moderate his message.

3. Yet President Trump has held one - that's right, one - press conference during his administration

And that was more than a year ago. I wonder why the folks in the media don't ask about that? Certainly when something they deem important catches their attention, they can be quite vocal about it. Like when a comedian mentions their prone obeisance to the current administration and their feelings get hurt because someone noticed it.

Are presidential press conferences a thing of the past? Have the popular media settled for government by Twitter feed? Did we have a vote on that, and nobody noticed it?
