He was asked about the bombing on the girls' school in Iran just now

[senseandsensibility]

His answer was "I don't know about it."

Yeah, we know. You don't know about it or anything else you big floundering blob of incompetence. Tell us something we don't know.

I hope he starts answering every question with those words. Every single one. Do you think then that the press will stop centering their "stories" about what he says and start covering what he does? Nah, me neither.

1. There were no follow up questions

Imagine if Biden had said something like that.

[Deuxcents]

2. Yeah, and that's what gets me. The media does not follow up or support each other by staying on point

If reporter A asks a question and they don’t answer or ignore, reporter B should follow up on the same question or issue. Keep their feet to the fire/issue

[dem4decades]

5. They've gotten rid of any serious reporters, now it's just hand picked loyalists.

[senseandsensibility]

9. That is true

I don't usually waste time criticizing the WH press corps questions because of that. On the other hand, other outlets like CNN and NYT, for example, do not need to center their coverage around what he says at these charade "pressers". Cover what he does!

3. They're afraid he'll give them ill-fitting shoes

The collapse of functional press around Trump is mind-boggling.

No other POTUS could get away with this

[MIButterfly]

6. "They're afraid he'll give them ill-fitting shoes."

Thank you for the good laugh, leftstreet! I really needed it.

[riversedge]

8. haha

[maxsolomon]

4. How could there be?

The WHPC is stocked with RW Media so that there can be no follow ups.

7. I think the

Press and GQP are “mostly” afraid of the raging Pearl clutching Butch Graham and him unleashing all his masculinity on their asses just before he faints on the White House stained couch. The one JD rapes for pleasure while Donny Is golfing and Vance is readying himself, to be appointed dear leader after the Cheese Berder stroke ends Daddy.
Trump can’t beat up nobody. He is a near dead pig.
But Lindsay…..his red faced, spiked hair when spewing spit and screaming how great Trump is, presents a dangerous situation.
Never underestimate a chihuahua with rabies, or one with a sexually transmitted disease eating and rotting his skull meat, from Epstein Island. That dog’s will bite.

10. You have a way with words

Don't ever change.

[Traildogbob]

13. "I know words, I have the best words".

The likes of which no president has ever said.
That I can tell you. Thank you for your attention to this matter. TDB! 🤜🏼🤛🏼

[MustLoveBeagles]

14. ...

[obamanut2012]

11. He knew about it two days ago

[senseandsensibility]

15. Good point

Another example of why whatever flows out of his mouth is absolutely meaningless.

[YodaMom2]

16. I was just about to say that.

Knew enough to try and blame Iran, claiming that they somehow got their hands on Tomahawk missiles. But when confronted with the fact that he was the only one making that assertion, he retreated once again to “I don’t know”.

It’s another one of his “tells”: any time he claims not to know, he’s lying.
Any story he tells that begins with someone calling him “sir”, he’s lying.
Every time he claims whatever he’s done is the most, biggest, best, etc., he’s lying.
And so on…

[tanyev]

12. Well, then. Could you send out whoever is actually running the country and does know?

Why don’t you keep yourself busy by counting up how many pairs of Florsheims you have in the stock room?

[Martin Eden]

17. I thought he knew more than all the generals??!!!

Now he's more like Sgt Schultz from Hogan's Heroes (who was actually a decent fellow, for a German prison guard).

[senseandsensibility]

19. That's so 2024. Now it's

great leadership to know nothing and care even less. Try to keep up, please.

[Orrex]

18. The press won't call him out until there's no other choice

and even then, only after they've made sure that it won't hurt their bottom line.

[aggiesal]

20. As I understood, he was asked about the bombing of the Girls School report ...

He responded "I don't know about it", meaning he doesn't know about the report.

I'm not trying to defend that Mierda47.

I don't know if a report has been released, but maybe the reporter was asking when the report would be released, but screwed up the question.
