I have heard people disagree with this. They think 45 would be perfectly content to have Faux Noise as the only "press" at the press conference.

Let him do it. He would only embarrass himself further. More people would see the sham of it all.

And why wouldn’t they? There are no scoops to be had at the briefings. They are lied to by SHS or that other guy every single day. I guess faux would still be there because they are the tRump tv. The rest of them should skip the briefings.

If FOX won't go along they should be reminded that sooner or later a Dem will be in the WH.

Jim Acosta was acting like a real reporter when the Dotard started disparaging an American reporter and news outlet on foreign soil - an internationally-recognized news organization!

I guess these low-rent people in the White House can show their ass just about anywhere.

When SHS dodges a question the next reporter needs to abandon their question and re-ask the same question...
...and on down the line till she answers it
