Questions to the democrats were cream puffs. Like What's your favorite thing about the whitehouse?

Mr. Trump's questions were really tricky. Like Explain why everyone hates you.

Questions like:

Reporter: Do you still believe that President Zelenskyy is a dictator?

Answer: Did I say that? I can't believe I said that. Next question.

(I do agree with teh point of this thread. President Trump has been much more forward facing to the press. Part of it is that he never met a voice he loves as much as his own)

Trump loooooooves the spotlight. You can tell how happy he is when he’s being asked questions and he calls flaunt his power. Not a jab, I think he just loves it!

It helps that he pays no price for lying, inconsistency, or not having a coherent policy.

Those are the very things that keep your average pol wary of too much press interaction.

Ha true, hadn't thought of it that way. Remember the times when a President would awkwardly be quiet so as not to say the wrong thing or misinformation? Not Biden specifically but in general...being afraid of saying the wrong thing. Trump? He says ALL the things. Truth, lies, jokes, insults... I give him credit, he's been self-aware for a while "I could shoot someone on 5th avenue and get away with it"

I really noticed it with President Obama. He always was very "calculated" when speaking, pausing a bit before making any answer.

That's one of the things that people like about Trump. He frequently talks utter bollocks, bullshits spectacularly, and lies like a cheap Japanese watch, but it's not filtered. He knows what his fans like, and he gives it to them.

For certain people, it is less about truth and more about the message and how it’s delivered. "I remember about the rabbits, George"
