many things have to change...

Can’t wait. This should be good.

Maybe Helen can come back and sit in the front.

Guess it’ll never happen, but I’d like to see him ignore the circle jerks like the Gridiron and WHC dinners.

Best election ever. I'm sure we'll have the "Fireside Chats" sort of discourse.

I can also predict that you will never see Trump with his feet up on any desk at any time.

This is a great idea. NY Times has 6 assigned to the WH press corp that needs to be cut down (by 6).

The WashPost should have all of their WH credentials pulled

Shut it down. It’s outlived its usefulness. There’s no sense in fielding questions from Democrat operatives masquerading as journalists.

All you need is social media – Twitter, YouTube, reddit AMA’s, and maybe crowd sourced questions on greatagain.gov. Even the occasional Townhall will be fine. We don’t have a media anymore so he might as well just Interface directly with the people.

The new Trump administration White House press room rules.

Select seats by daily lottery.

Glad they seem to be on this. The rule should be no special treatment for anyone.

Make the “old media” sit outside in meeeeee-shell’s wookie-garden during press conferences. That’s a good start.

How about a weekly briefing instead of a daily. It is long past time to stop acting like we need have daily update on the Presidents day.

I want Eleanor Clift.

Didn’t get to see her eat crow on The McLaughlin Group. John expired a little too soon.
