solicit reactions to the tweet of the
day, which is all.consuming,.when
you see it on TV, and see it in the
press in general, my weighing in on
those simply adds to the distraction
from what I think is really most
important and that is the policy
work we're doing in congress,
and the work coming out of this
administration," he said.
Though Jenkins, a Trump-
supporter, said he does not
necessarily agree with every
comment the president has made,
he said the media should be
focusing more of its attention on
policy-driven issues instead of the
Trump's comments. He said issues
like national security and health
care deserve more attention than
the recent media attacks.
"What the president says is
important, it gets noticed and
gets pressed, but my point is the
president speaks about many
different things and there are
things he speaks about through
social media or from the podium
that is very policy oriented," he
said
Jenkins is hardly the first
politician to avoid . questions
regarding Trump's words and
actions. Belinda Biafore, chair of
the state Democratic party, said the.
four Republicans in West Virginia's
congressional delegation have an
established history of avoiding
critical questioning.
, "The great thing about the three
congressmen I've seen is they
sidestep every issue no matter
what you ask them about, if you can
even find them to ask them," she
said. "I saw three different events
speak his mind, and while he wishes
the president might change up the
subject matter or slow down with
his Twitter use, such is unlikely.
%Ve just weren't raised that that
was acceptable behavior," he said.
'~ro this day, I still don't believe it is
acceptable behavior. But again, rye
got to work, as you might think,
around it, or do something. I'm not.
going to condemn somebody, it's
just not acceptable behavior in my
eyes or how I was raised.
'~[ou don't see me condemning or
raising all kind of Cain, I just wish
it wouldn't happen and I think it's
something unbecoming of any of
US ."
A spokesman for Mooney said in
a statement Trump's use of social
media allows him to share his
conservative message, that he did
so on the campaign and it shouldn't
surprise people to see him continue
to do so. He did not respond to
questioning about whether Mooney
approves of the substance of the
recent Tweets.
Different press freedom
associations, meanwhile, are
weary of Trumps' rhetoric in light
of escalating tension between
politicians, the public at large and
the media. Alexandra Ellerbeck,
an Americas program researcher
with the Committee to Protect
Journalists, said lawmakers have
always served as a check and
balance on the executive branch,
and it's troubling to see them
evading questions about these
attacks.
"I think it's concerning that
a representative would dismiss
concerns about press freedoms so
