I wish the press corps would act as a group to develop questions and the order in which they are asked. Then whoever he calls on can ask the first question on the list. When he deflects or lies the next reporter asked the same question and so on until he answers the bloody question relatively well.

dianajane.bsky.social•82 days ago

They could put the list on something like Google Keep that can generate checklists. Check that question off and the next reporter called on asks question 2. The madness of asking questions and allowing blatant lies to stand is a large part of how we got to this dangerous, stupid, stupid place.
