The press is terrible

You know the “liberal” media that trumps claims are so tough on him.....no follow up questions when needed, the next person just asks their prepared question instead of pivoting to a follow up based on the previous reporter....I saw several occasions when his answer required a follow up by another reporter,

1. His Obama gate answer
2. The admirals answer on Fauci and others in quarantine because of contact with people who were positive (then why isn’t Trump and Pence in quarantine?)
