Come on. Get a pair. So far a couple of ladies kept asking their questions while Trump was trying to shut them up.

(5,523 posts)The reason I pointed them out and not the newsmen was there was a lot of coverage of "Him" putting them down. They made "Him" look even smaller than he is. Thanks Ladies.

(58,785 posts)they're not? Those "ladies" are hardly the first or the only, questions like that are asked all the time and I don't see the point of this.
Trump's mental disorder almost certainly makes him literally incapable of blaming himself for anything. You will never hear him say he's responsible.
Anyway, while you're complaining about those journalists, what about the ones covering congress? Why aren't they going after the senate Republicans who are every bit as responsible?
The legislative branch passes laws the president is required to carry out. McConnell has instead been blocking all action he can get away with from the very beginning. Think January!
In the beginning that was ALL action. Only as the death totals grew and millions were forced out of work did McConnell & Co. pass economic legislation that they tried to use as a channel to divert more of the nation's wealth UPWARD. They have continued to block all Democratic attempts to take real action to control the pandemic.
WHY? WITH WHAT GOALS? As authoritarians around the planet use the pandemic to grab more power.
In MI, as the virus rages a QUARTER of the workforce is filing. That IS depression level.
