This is the longest time that we haven't heard from Pres Trump in person since he was president. What's the plan?

throwing a tantrum and sulking, not to mention begging for money from his base so he can continue to lie, sulk, and throw a tantrum.

At all.

Reporters will be ruthless in their line of questioning. His own actions set this up. Nothing he can say will get him out of this mess (good!).

Hide in your bunker Donny boy.

But right now, the president is throwing the mother of all tantrums and nobody left in the White House has the nerve to discipline the big baby.

In that context, then yeah, it makes sense, but that doesn't change the fact the the WH is America's House.

Have a great Thursday.

Also, why ask me?

Thanks for the reminder, Joe.My.God.

WAIT. When asked about whether Joe Biden will receive access to intelligence briefings, Kayleigh McEnany says, “That would be a question more for the White House."

Kayleigh McEnany IS the WH Press Secretary, though she is appearing on FOX as a Trump 2020 adviser.
