1. Probably around 20-percent of Americans now watch the White House 'events' from Youtube, Twitter, or C-$PAN....raw and complete. We don't watch the evening news folks chop it up or select something to hype their 'theme' or message. We talk about this to the folks who don't watch the raw coverage. We also talk about the poor behavior of journalists.
2. If you waste 60 seconds (two-hundred words) talking about your alternate 'facts' before getting to the question of 30 seconds (ninety words), then react shocked when the President dismisses everything with five words....then you probably weren't prepared for your profession.
3. Your facial expression 'game' makes you look childish and immature. The camera is catching everything and the Tulsa barber, or the retiree from Miami, or the bartender in Cleveland is just sitting there and laughing his ass off.
4. Wasted four hours on getting one good 'gotcha' question to dump on the President? That's the best you can do with your time? Really?
5. Most regular people are not that impressed with journalists today. Wonder why?
6. Personally, I'd limit the room to a dozen midwest newspaper journalists and maybe some semi-retired comedian from Vegas.
7. Finally, I would make an estimate that out of every ten-thousand viewers watching the whole thing from a Democratic-voter prospective....your act is influencing them to question things, and may be five or six folks each day from that ten-thousand....are flipping their votes to Trump in the fall. Maybe it's not a big deal, but if he appears forty times over the next few months....that's probably another one-million voters nation-wide....that weren't supposed to vote for him. Thank about that.
