In reply to AA if there is a goooooooood

BTW, Comey knows how to handle a tweeting troll! Don't feed, don't take the bait, simply have a source tell CNN that he is not ascared of the troll.

And now CNN has this red "News Alert" banner up: White House Spokesperson says President Trump's Comey tweet was not a threat, has "nothing further to say on it"

Melissa McCarthy takes Sean Spicer's podium for a test drive @ The Hill

....Videos posted on Twitter show McCarthy slowly driving down the street with a line of cars following her. In the video, McCarthy can be heard yelling "come on!" and "watch out!" to passerby and other cars....

The Hills has one of the videos posted @ the link

Hah, over at WaPo at the top of the page right now:

‘I wish he’d quit tweeting’: Even Trump backers say it’s time for him to stop

Although the president pledged to let go of his @realDonaldTrump account if elected, he has continued to tweet, insisting that it’s the only way he can bypass the media and directly connect with his supporters. Polls show rising concern among Republicans about Trump’s erratic Twitter habit, which has pundits transfixed.

Indeed. What I am actually praying for is that he gets nuttier quicker, so we can get this over with quicker and move on to President Pence. And then you can drag out all your old skills!

In reply to Trump, having temper tantrum,

AA if there is a goooooooood definition of nihilism; Trump just hit it on the head. Or he hit reality on the head.

Just shoot down press briefings.

Answer questions by the press with written answers.

BUT WHO IS GOING TO WRITE THE FRICKIN ANSWERS.

hahahahahahah

Let us pray.

In reply to I read up on this yesterday.

Trump, having temper tantrum about the Comey narratives, is now thinking maybe we don't need press briefings, because nobody can really do his spin for him as good as he can (via Peter Baker @ NYTimes.com @ 12:06pm),

Mr. Trump said on Friday morning that no one should expect his White House to give completely accurate information.

“As a very active President with lots of things happening, it is not possible for my surrogates to stand at podium with perfect accuracy!” he wrote on Twitter.

“Maybe,” he added a few moments later, “the best thing to do would be to cancel all future ‘press briefings’ and hand out written responses for the sake of accuracy???”

The threat may have been just a rhetorical point, but Mr. Trump by his own description likes to be unpredictable and does not feel obligated to follow longstanding White House conventions simply because that is the way things have been done for years. Every president in modern times has been frustrated with the news media at points, but they all preserved the tradition of the daily briefing, if for no other reason than to get their message out. Mr. Trump, with Twitter as his own trumpet, may feel less need for that.

There is already precedent for shutting down news briefings during Mr. Trump’s presidency. The State Department for decades held daily briefings with only rare and brief interruptions in a process that was important not only to inform reporters of administration policy, but foreign governments and even the department’s own far-flung diplomats. But such briefings have largely ended during the Trump administration.

Trump once said he'd keep him

Trump once said he'd keep him on because he gets yuge ratings; now ratings not yuge enough? As alternate reality changes day to day, that Melissa sketch will have to be super improv.
