It’s hard to argue that Donald Trump and the media don’t enjoy a symbiotic relationship of sorts. They need each other.
But maybe Trump’s starting to get a bit tired of the media’s schtick.
What's the price of oil, journo???

At today’s White House COVID19 presser, one journalist really wanted Donald Trump to address the price of oil. But he didn’t do his homework first:
REPORTER: "Checking on oil again today—"
TRUMP: "Where is it today? Give me the price."
REPORTER: "I am not sure, to be honest."
TRUMP: "How can you ask a question, when you don’t know the price?"
REPORTER: "I will look it up—"
TRUMP: "Let me just go to somebody else."

Honestly, can you blame Trump?
Trump bizarrely refuses to take a question from a reporter about oil because the reporter can't tell him what the price of oil is pic.twitter.com/9zBJ50cRxd

Nothing bizarre about it. That reporter wasn’t prepared to ask the question he wanted an answer to.
