Why?Who cares? This entire charade of daily press briefings has been totally unnecessary for years and years now.
They should eliminate the position and stop these idiotic briefings outright.
Why?
Because stifling the press is a good thing?
Because limiting access to the WH is a good thing?
Because holding the executive branch accountable to the people is a bad thing?
FAKE NEWSIt has become nothing more than a stage for self righteous reporters. There is nothing serious discussed. It's nothing more than reporters fighting for a sound bite. Clinton's and W's press secretaries both believe the daily press conference should go away, it accomplishes nothing.

"We recommend that President-elect Trump keep the press briefing, but no longer make it a live televised event."
It hasn't been televised live in a month.

It's the same thing.I said press conference. I didn't say briefing.
You're right. But the "daily press briefing" is what that activity is called. It was and still is a "press conference" just with a different label.The press briefing is the main way for print and smaller news organizations to get their questions answered. It is not supposed to be a midday soap opera for TV news or a platform for blowhards like Jim Acosta to scream and throw temper tantrums to get TV ratings.

if Trump fires Mueller do Republicans finally think he's crossed the line and vote to impeach him? The optics would be a disaster to fire 2 people in a row from the Justice Department

Wonder how Scaramucci fits in with this admin.
I think he'll do a great job, though.
He's already "evolved" and has backtracked on his previous comments. He's been trying to delete them - even though nothing really dies on the internet. So no, no longer a Dem/liberal it looks like. Just another apologist and new conservative/Republican.The whole world knows he is a Democrat but if he can serve the country in this role by doing a good job, go for it!
Press should LOVE him, he is one of their own (until that create falsehoods which lead to 3 of the firing last month).
But now he's saying he has evolved from those feelings and has been going through and deleting those previous thoughts. Says allegiance is only to serve Trump now.
Obama "evolved" on his gay marriage stance. Roughly when it was politically advantageous to do so.
But hey- you can only evolve when remaining a Democrat!
Federal govt obsolete. The entire thing is on it's deathbed. Will cease to exist in next 20 years. We can stop all of it's distracting shit shows today and people focus on creating the new intersubjective realities that need to be in place to survive in a post-government post-capitalist abundance-information economy.
