The romance between the press and Mr. Obama is one thing that has been lost in the transition to Mr. Trump. The mainstream press displays a sense of entitlement to its prominent position at the White House, and that’s about to be challenged. That they are not happy about it is an understatement.
It’s not that these people do not wish to cover Trump, they most certainly do. He will make news regularly, and aggressively covering the news is what gives these organizations their ratings and, consequently, money. So, as much as a significant part of the press despises Trump, that does not mean they want their access cut off.
However, times are changing, and Trump has no intention of backing down from confrontations with the media — in fact, he seems to thrive on it. Not only that, he is prepared to take steps that will take them down a few notches. More on page two.
They should require it for every government member and throughout their term. Clearly, some are on something.

Every Democrat will fail and that’s a good thing
Oh that should be a fun day let’s find out what meds they’re taking
should require it for Congress and all Federal employees
make sure Congress gets some drug testing because I believe a majority of the demos are on drugs or alcohol
Federal employment requires drug testing initially and annually. Even contractors are subjected.
Good!
I have to pass a drug test for my job, why shouldnt they??
This will never work they are protected under the 1st amendment. When I worked for the DRF all trainers..owners and workers must be licensed and ate subject to random drug testing. Because we were a newspaper we were not subjected to being licensed because of freedom of press issues. I see some form of this being used when it comes to this plan.
Start with Pelosi, Waters, and Warren, they must be smoking some good$#%&!@*
