    He holds one every day, as he signs new executive orders, from the Oval Office to boot!! I’m watching the one from today and eating this up. Great stuff. President Trump has held more press conferences in 12 days than Biden did in four years.

    He sure doesn't back down from questions. Biden always tucked his head and ran when the first question was asked.

    Of course he does. Narcissists seek constant attention.

    No, you don’t. You can change the channel or website to something else. With Biden, I couldn’t simply change the channel or website to get answers from him, because he never held press conferences. He was an empty suit.

    Tell me you would rather have someone who tells a bunch of lies then runs and hides before anybody can question him about them. Biden was a joke.

    Giving Trump credit where credit is due, the man is a natural performer and loves slinging nonsensical bullshit. Apparently his latest shtick is making a statement that includes a noun, a verb and the acronym DEI.

    I would rather have an empty suit as president than a pathological liar like Trump. Biden didn't give press conferences because he didn't have to. He was not a drama queen like Trump. The government operated smoothly because people knew what they were doing and they did their jobs without interference. Biden would never put a recent high school graduate in charge of government I.T. and watch as the spam e-mails rolled in and stopped all work.

    I agree Biden is the biggest fraud, 50 years of frauding the tax payer. But Trump is close behind and catching up fast.

    Is there a reason that you always ignore the time that Trump hid in his bunker?

    The takeaway here is that the Democrats are going to have to put someone up who's not afraid to hold a press conference if they ever want to win the White House back. JD Vance, who would likely be in line in 2028 is a take on all comers as well. You won't beat him with "our internal polls show we're up by a half a point, we don't need to do interviews or press conferences." But carry on mocking Trump while thinking there's nothing wrong with a president or a candidate going out of their way to hide from reporters. I suspect Dems such as you will be so busy dealing with your TDS that you won't figure out the very basic concept that Americans want access. Americans have more access today to just about everything compared to even 25 years ago. Hiding from reporters isn't going to cut it.

    this is totally correct. He craves and needs attention like oxygen. Any attention. Dear Leader just fans the flames using performative outrage politics. Now DEI is the new enemy. It wasn’t a issue before, or under Trump I. Now, because Dear Leader says so, it’s MAGA’s outrage du jour
