>>But what exactly should a question about it of been at this press conference? I mean what possible question could they ask her?

They had no trouble asking about Flynn at least 10 times with the same answer from her each time. Maybe ask whether the bump stock ban is Sessions' legacy. Maybe ask whether there's other initiatives in the pipeline that previous administrations steered clear of. There's lots of questions a neutral journalist could ask.

>> Meanwhile just a few hours later he claims to of defeated ISIS and is making a HUGE HUGE international mistake on that -

Actually it was one of his campaign promises. Ask Bill what he thinks about being constantly at war, and surely "America First" doesn't mean "Syria First" or "NATO First." The other point is that there are 2,000 US troops in Syria compared to 14,000 in Afghanistan despite the US declaring its intention to pull out of Afghanistan by 2014. Putin made that point too, btw, so lets wait and see.

Putin also suggested that having US troops in Syria is illegal since they were neither invited by the Syrian government (as Russia was) nor authorized by the Security Council. Could he be correct? Meanwhile various naysayers say that withdrawal = handing influence to Russia and Iran, but others say that's inevitable after the US sided against Assad while Russia and Iran supported him. Assad is close to declaring total victory in Syria and you don't need to be a rocket scientist to predict political allegiances going forward. Who was it that sided against Assad again?

>>and is also saying that he is not going to sign the bill to prevent the government from shutting down. So yes his bump stock thing got coverage but it's quickly forgotten because of Trump own ignorant crazy actions and words on matters of massive importance.

Saint Clinton vetoed spending bills and caused shut downs twice, so lets hear you call him ignorant crazy. How about the ignorant crazy person who tried and failed to undermine Assad: anything to say about that?

No, because the hypocrisy and hatred is almost uniquely directed at current POTUS for doing things that, as Bill noted, would have resulted in canonization or free passes for predecessors or at least were handled respectfully. But Orange Man Bad. Always bad.

>>The problem you have here is that you complain about 'boycott on good news' when the real issue is that there is simply a very small amount of good news in regards to this administration to report on

Employment figures are looking pretty good, and I heard Trump with my own ears saying that the US needs immigrants to fill roles in the growing economy. Clearly he's not anti-immigrant as you had asserted. Why isn't that news? How about the price of natural gas down by 75% compared to most of the Western world where it's markedly up. Natural gas burns far cleaner than alternatives and is partly responsible for the improving US emission figures that so far are saving rather than costing citizens money as was planned until Trump pulled out of the Paris Accord. Shouldn't it be news to contrast that with France where they're rioting over exciting new fuel taxes imposed by Macron because Global Warning.

What you're really saying is that there's no good news to see because every silver lining has a cloud and its journalists' job to find and promote the cloud if Trump is involved.

>> If he wouldn't of wanted to be president he could of quietly continued to launder money for the Russian mob and bang porn star hookers for the rest of his life

No, I heard he was into having not-sex with interns and raping others, giving $500K speeches in Moscow, colluding with Russians to assemble fake dossiers on political foes, leaking national secrets from illegal email servers and all that other horrible stuff. Oh wait, those were different horrible people, weren't they, but they're on the cool team so the other cool dudes and dudettes give them a pass.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
