    Don't you miss the time when conservatives that former presidents came out once in a blue moon to make subtle jabs at the then current president Trump?

    I'm glad Trump has stayed silent as a former president about Biden's job performance. Glad they are logically consistent about it.

    It did happen, read the Mueller Report and the GOP Senate Intel Report. Fortunately for Trump, it wasn't a real criminal investigation..... being president has it's perks.

    Mueller report says Trump campaign figures hindered the investigation when they ‘deleted relevant information'

    IDK.... I know a lot of Reagan conservatives that thought it was just a campaign act.

    I'm not sure if that's the middle there.....

    from the clips I've seen, looks like he did much better than expected and better than how his detractors are reporting it

    Detractors gonna detract

    That's how they get paid. If you aren't hyperpartisan, I don't see how you walk away from hearing that press conference feeling upset. I genuinely enjoyed his answers on China, the border, infrastructure.

    It's a pretty good one but my personal favorite is the swiffer sweepers in Nam

    Pro-tip: You would avoid looking even more stupid if you learned what a Briefing Book was...

    Pro-Tip: You'd look less stupid (if that's possible) if you tackled my point about him being spoon fed versus just spewing non-substantive insults. Typical desperation and deflection.

    Your only point is the one on the top of your head I'm afraid. You are showing a book with pictures and names of reporters on the lectern. Briefing books also contain short summaries of the questions the reporters have asked in the past (including the daily press briefings and scrums) and a short answer or two. That way the person at the lectern not only recognizes and calls on people by name but also has a good idea what they will ask but also can give a prepared response. I've created dozens of briefing books.

    But hey, I have posted this hours ago, and here you come in and repeat the same lame criticism without any real understanding of what your are criticizing. I even posted a picture of the past press secretary's binder which was an effort to help her answer any possible questions.

    But please, continue to provide me more opportunities to belittle you. Its entertaining.

    I like to deflect here a bit

    Mr. Sure Got Mad Hops, would you like to go to this thread and defend your stance? She's calling you unreasonable.
