Honestly? I think that I would be a PERFECT Press Secretary for President Trump.
100 percent serious.
The "casual atmosphere" that has been allowed to continue for 4 years, unchecked, stops on Day 1. That's a promise.
Every reporter gets a number. On a table, next to the lecturn is a bingo drum filled with numbered balls. I rotate the drum, pull one out, that reporter gets to ask a question. Ball goes back in, rotate the drum and repeat.
I'm only doing 5 questions per briefing, so don't f*** around and waste everyone's time with dumb questions. If I don't like the question, your ball goes in the penalty bucket (meaning out of PLAY) for 2 weeks. If you complain about it, it's 6 weeks.
Unless your number is called there should be ZERO talking. You get one warning. If you have to be reminded again, your ball goes in the penalty bucket for 2 months. The only people talking in that room should be ME, and the reporter I called on. Follow up/I didn't like that answer responses get your ball thrown in the penalty bucket for a month.
Easy as pie.
