Predictably, they bite.

That's not what the story says, which is, "not possible’ for his staff to speak with ‘perfect accuracy’."

Then you go on to see what Trump actually tweeted:

As a very active President with lots of things happening, it is not possible for my surrogates to stand at podium with perfect accuracy!....
...Maybe the best thing to do would be to cancel all future "press briefings" and hand out written responses for the sake of accuracy???

It should embarrass WashPo to become the Weekly World News. I get a mental picture of a small dog chasing its tail and barking furiously.

I get that from Trump sometimes too.

Really? I sometimes get the impression of Trump as a large dog with large teeth being yapped at by overly aggressive chihuahuas, and him just ignoring it...until he doesn't.

And the Legacy Press automatically characterized this as a threat.

Rather interesting that none of you seem to understand the role of a free press or that of an elected President. Not surprising mind you given the obvious lack of educations displayed here on an hourly basis...just interesting.

Having worked several years in the press, I have to ask you to qualify yourself (Ho, Ho, that's a surprise isn't it?) to make up that lie.

Why don't you tell us, then, since you're such an all-knowing expert?

Damn Tommy it is you that doesn't recognize an elected President.
You have been screaming that he isn't qualified since day one.
Trump was elected you know.
