re: Trump threatens to remove news networks' press credentials over negative coverage

It's 2018. The reality is that Trump could announce tomorrow that no longer will press passes be permanent. He could simply an ounce that he will take everyone currently in the Press pool and add about 300 more Outlets spread between radio print and television. Then press access could be determined randomly and for those that can't make the trip to DC they can ask their questions via teleconference.

Personally I think that would yield better press conferences long after Trump is gone and it wouldn't Shield Trump from negative questions at the same time.
