Oh, also, hard-hitting questions? The front row of the White House Press Room should look like this:
Rachel Maddow, Chris Hedges, Jeremy Scahill, Lee Pappa, Bill Moyers, Cornell West.
Otherwise, go fuck yourself, Brit. You and yours are Court Stenographers, too dumb to know that you just got given the finger by the single most powerful human being on the planet. ON NATIONAL FUCKING TELEVISION no less.
