Considering he needs someone else to order his fast food for him, answering questions from the press in even a semi-coherent manner might be a touch demanding.

That and he’s also a pussy of such epic proportions that even Georgia O’Keefe would struggle to depict him.

They should fire the AV guy who set up those two displays and didn't color match them.
Yeah, cause that matters when watching a slurring buffoon reading gibberish off cue cards.

Yeah the right hand one was not orange enough.

Unrealistic.
Seriously, would you have set up two monitors on a presidential stage with the colors that far off?
There should be no monitors on the stage, he should be able to face the press.

This.

He probably chickened out last minute and they had to down to Costco and get a couple of Vizios.

Yeah why would anyone want transparency and the president to speak to the people directly?
The press are just democrats

They’re not the people

They’ve disqualified themselves

Trump is right to ignore them

Doubtful. They need some time to shoot the statement and set up the video displays in the press room. This was planned by handlers/whitehouse staffers who likely thought they were protecting an unhinged POTUS who they knew was in no state to face the press or go off script. My bet is he insisted on handling this himself and this was the compromise because they knew he'd be a disaster off script in front of the press in his current state.

That’s a pathetic copout.

More likely, Trump does not have the intellectual ability or cognitive function to answer unscripted questions with any depth or thought.

But that’s cool. He reflects his base.

I would fully expect to see more and more of this kinda thing with his handlers hiding him from the media. It's going to be like a publicist trying to keep a spiraling celeb away from the paparazzi. If he's still POTUS in 6 months from now I'm willing to bet that the headlines will be "Where's Donald?" We'll get to a point where he won't make a public appearance for a long stretch of time as they keep him sequestered from the media and his whereabouts/well-being will be the million dollar question. The Alex Jones types will think he's dead or being held captive.
