President Trump enjoys being rude to women reporters who ask him reasonable questions that he doesn’t like. The press needs to grow a spine.

President Donald Trump treats everyone who questions him as the enemy. His rudeness to women reporters is off the charts. He demeans and attempts to silence anyone who asks him normal questions that he finds objectionable because they reveal what a bad job he is doing. 

Some people chalk up his more frequent outbursts, in his second term, as signs of a deteriorating mental state. Whatever the reason, he seems to be spewing invective at questioners with more frequency and with an obvious enjoyment of his privilege to act like an ass, and no one says anything to his face about it. 

The White House press corps needs to take a lesson from their Pentagon associates and leave the White House in mass in protest against Trump’s treatment of their colleagues.
