Freedom of the press just says they can write whatever they want. It doesn't say they're guaranteed access to whatever and whomever they want. I don't know why he hasn't kicked them all the fuck out but I do hope he does so in term 2 (God willing).

Imagine actual questions that they want answers to.

For instance, what will be the income tax cut for workers and what will be the new cap gains rate. Actual answers we all care about.
