JUST STAND UP AND LEAVE

tRUMP shows the WH press corps no respect. He repeats everything.. blah, blah, blah and uses the vocabulary of a four year old.
He needs you. He needs you so much more than you need him. Please, just walk out.

That would be the best news scoop ever, and he wouldn't able to brag about it since he'd be dead.

Keep hitting him with the same question, correct his lies, and demand an apology for the insults. Better to get thrown out than simply walk out.

like a wonderful thing, and in a sane society could happen, they are no more able to doo that and keep their job than a kid behind the counter can ignore an obnoxious customer. They would be fired and replaced in less time than it takes to make what McDonalds claims is a burger. However, those who watch corporate news can decide that they do not want such shit to be in their viewing diet.

I was just about to post pretty much the same sentiments; glad I saw this first.

People are aiming their ire at the wrong targets. The fault lies not with these reporters but with their corporate overlords.

But they're at the height of their profession, standing there in the stink.
