The faces made in the room as @ChanelRion asks Trump: Is it alarming that major media players...are consistently siding with a foreign state propaganda, Islamic radicals, and Latin gangs and cartels and they work right here...with direct access to you and your team? pic.twitter.com/4eW8RHipY5

And then there's this little femcel.

A friend asks, stunned: "Is this what 'journalists' actually think they're doing? Fighting coronavirus?"

Is that what they think they're doing when they ask the 100th question about whether calling a Chinese virus the Chinese virus is racist? Do they think those questions are synthesizing a vaccine?

I would actually imagine the answers are "yes:" The press corps actually does believe that if they cover the law, they're lawyers. If they cover technology, they're engineers. And if they cover an epidemic, they're front-line medical personnel with notebooks and pocket audio records.

They really are that delusional.

Update:

Someone just texted me this joke: "Fastest way to kill the coronavirus is to convince Hillary Clinton that it will testify against her."
