Last April Donald Trump fired himself as the Coronavirus Task Force spokesmodel<\/a><\/strong>. It was a termination necessitated by the obvious harm he was doing to his already floundering reelection campaign and the campaigns of his fellow Republicans. No one lamented his three month absence considering the fact that, due to his ignorance and ego, he had nothing of value to contribute anyway.<\/p>\n

Trump himself complained that the briefings served no purpose and were a waste of time. “The American people are getting nothing but Fake News,\u201d<\/em> he whined about an event where he was the dominant speaker. That’s quite a confession.<\/p>\n

What is the purpose of having White House News Conferences when the Lamestream Media asks nothing but hostile questions, & then refuses to report the truth or facts accurately. They get record ratings, & the American people get nothing but Fake News. Not worth the time & effort!<\/p>\n
