I would give everything I own (which isnt as lot) if One person in the WH Press Core...

When Trump talks about his Poll Numbers or TV ratings, would reply to Trump and say.....

"President Trump, people don't give a FUCK about your tv ratings, they dont give a FUCK that you
out rated the Bachelor, they dont give a FUCK about your poll numbers,they dont give a FUCK about
what you think of the media, people are dying, 200K people may end up dying in the USA , this is
NOT about you, you FUCKIN MORON, this is about people life's, this is what people are worried about
and not the DOW JONES."

The White House press corps care more about continued access to the White House briefing room than exposing Trump.

"exposing tRump" an image of that naked statue of him flashes into my mind!They should be brought out of storage, stationed in various parts of the country. He would like that, since he was slimmer then. He has really put on weight since then, especially in his face, neck and belly.

I'd like to hear a reporter ask if he knew "lots of people are now calling you "big butt don" now.

Mr President, if the Dow Jones increased 1000 points, how many lives would actually be saved?

I posted this on March 20th, and I think it bears repeating. As I said, the White House Press Corps, with few exceptions, are a self-serving bunch only interested in preserving their seat at press conferences.

.... with a few exceptions are afraid to ask the hard questions because they might get expelled. In my opinion, that is a chickenshit way to conduct oneself. If all you ask are the easy questions, what is the point in being there. Ask the questions that will make him sweat, and if you are expelled, then at least you got your shot in, and your dignity is preserved. It will reflect a hundred times more negatively on him than on the press. Just once, I would like to see a journalist publicly call him a liar when he actually lies in public. We all watch the new shows where the host will say, " Trump stated such and such, and that was a lie." Guess what? it did not become a lie when it aired on a news show. It became a lie the moment it came out of his mouth.
