Women have been Trump's best press secretaries. I particularly like McEnany. I wish he had her in the earlier days.

It’s difficult to believe that Washington Post and NPR reporters on the White House beat are unaware of the fact that women lead the Trump communications team.
Kayleigh McEnany is the current press secretary for President Trump, the third woman in a row to hold that role for the current president. She is also the third mother in a row to hold that role.
Communications Director Alyssa Farah is a woman who has served in communications roles with the Trump administration for more than three years.
The vice president’s communications director is Katie Miller. She is a woman.
The first lady’s spokesperson is Stephanie Grisham. She is a woman who previously served as President Trump’s press secretary. And Karen Pence’s director of communications is Kara Brooks, also a woman.
Anyone with passing familiarity with the Trump administration’s communications team knows that, in the Post’s phrasing, all of the top aides tasked with speaking on behalf of an administration and shaping its message are female. As Ben Williamson, a deputy advisor to the president, joked:
Much more at the link. But that was different because shut up.

What's pathological is calling the man who ended ISIS, got us out of wars, changed the north Korean problem for the better, started a workable path to peace in the middle East, created more opportunities for black businesses, increased their employment rate, etc "dangerous Orange man bad" and then replacing him with a senile old segregationist who hasn't been on the right side of history or accomplished one single thing in nearly half a century, and spending 4 years attacking and lying like dogs and now saying we need to unite....
That's pathological.

Just curious, I follow DPRK pretty closely.
In your opinion, What has changed for the better?
I guess a better question would be - what has changed?
To me, things are pretty much the same. DPRK is still continuing with its nuclear program, etc
(BTW, even saying the above, I agreed with President Trump and his attempts to try and engage Premier Kim)

Within two hours, there was a statement from Dr. Kevin O’Connor noting that Biden’s foot had been X-rayed and it appeared as though he had a sprain. A CT scan was going to be conducted just to confirm the diagnosis, however.
Then, 90 minutes after that, came this, again from O’Connor…
The point is this: Transparency in matters of health and, well, everything else, is fundamental to a functioning democracy. And we have had the opposite of that for these last four years.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Did it ever come out what was behind Trump's unexplained visit to Walter Reed a year ago?
Only non-witches get due process.

He was donating his bodily fluids for the betterment of humanity. Apparently, Elon Musk is going to use it to power his next space ship.
"Musk" isn't his real name - he changed it to honour Teh Donald's contributions in this area.

No, it isn't.
But the fact is that Mr. Trump went way overboard with twitter transparency.
We will never get that kind of transparency from Mr. Biden.

Maybe you do, but I've seen how you follow most everything else, so its no surprise to me that you had to ask a question with so obvious an answer. I also realize that accepting and understanding the answer requires you to give Trump credit for something positive, and you just aren't capable of doing that. You also try to make everything the same, nothing changes, nothing anyone does moves the needle on anything, yada yada.
But I'll answer your question anyway, although I already know you will disagree and tell me why you are more informed than me, come up with reasons why nothing really changed, and then polish the padlock on the door to your mind.
When Trump took office, the Obama administration had made a huge mess all over the place. ISIS had come into existence as a direct result of the Obama administration's ineptitude. The ridiculous Iran deal was done, and billions of dollars was hauled over on planes by the pallet load, basicallyhelping Iran fund terrorism around the world. It was so bad, so stupid, that either Obama was the most inept fool to ever occupy the presidency, or he was intentionally helping our enemies. Or both.
Regardless of which it was, Kim saw everyone else getting away with everything, sized Obama up as a feckless idiot who didn't have the guts or the ability to do anything about it, and took advantage of obama's incompetence to escalate. He began testing rockets, spending more on nuclear weapons, and was openly threatening to strike the US once he had a missile that would reach us.
Then Trump took over. He canceled the deal with Iraq,, put sanctions on them that hurt them enough that they couldn't afford to fund terrorists as much as before, and smacked Iran every time they tried to be a problem. He killed some of Iran's top people. He destroyed ISIS. And he publicly told "little rocket man" that he had a bigger nuclear button, and if Kim didn't stop threatening to strike the US he would, in so many words, blast North Korea into a glassy hole. Kim saw he was up against a real leader who wasn't afraid of him, and he stopped threatening to attack the US. He hasn't threatened to attack us since.
That's what changed.
Now - if Biden becomes president, he's already announced his plans to go right back to the exact same inept policies as before. So once Kim sees the US has another inept fool in the White House, Kim will take advantage of it again.
But I guess for some, at least no one is hurting their widdle feewings.

Im sure if it had been important, Dr. O'Conner would have kicked his TDS into gear and made sure everyone knew what it was.

President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris on Sunday announced an all-female White House senior communications team, including former Obama White House communications director Jen Psaki as press secretary.
"I am proud to announce today the first senior White House communications team comprised entirely of women. These qualified, experienced communicators bring diverse perspectives to their work and a shared commitment to building this country back better," Biden said in a statement.
And even better, "women of color!"
These seven women, several of whom are women of color, will occupy some of the most visible roles in the administration.
Plenty of hair to sniff! Well done, Joe!
