Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Imagine if lies by congress resulted in the same kind of prison sentences as lies to congress.

You got it backwards, duh.
I'm sorry you have such difficulty distinguishing between Obama and Trump. I'll keep that in mind before I reply to you again.

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Is Trump still sticking by his support of HPD Chief Acevedo?
"What a job you've done. I'm proud of you," Trump told Acevedo while giving the keynote address on Wednesday at the Major Cities Chiefs Association and Major County Sheriffs of America joint conference in Washington, D.C.

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Ideally, the President would walk out of the press room if a reporter is rude, ending the press conference. Give the press the opportunity and obligation to police themselves. If they refuse, they all lose. The WH can post press releases on the WH website and cut out the middleman. The mainstream media is becoming as obsolete as buggy whips anyhow.

However, I don't think Trump has the willpower to walk away from the spotlight, so a technical solution run by the WH staff will work better. They can get mics that can be cut off remotely and use multiple microphones. Have one reporter "at bat" and the next one "on deck" and if the batter strikes out, cut off their mic and turn on the mic for the next reporter.

Even better, don't give a mic to accoster in the first place. :evil2:

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

The midterm elections are over. The people have spoken. Maybe now the Senate can get down to the business of confirming the remaining nominations without further delay.
