are really getting tired of dealing with the tRump attacks on them personally. Who can talk about things that matter when the so-called president takes potshots every single day at the very people who have to report on newsworthy events? TRump sets the agenda daily by acting like a child throwing a temper tantrum. That is hard to ignore. It also works as a great distraction from what is not happening at the White House. Once tRump figured out he could keep things stirred up and keep the focus off of promises he has not kept, he knew he had a winner. So expect more of the same.

The media are on to tRump but it will take restraint to keep from getting side tracked. At some point they have to say enough. They either ignore him 100% (not going to happen) or they persist in asking the hard questions and keep holding his feet to the fire. And that goes for members of his cabinet and staff. Make them squirm.
