For the past four years, Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy has been repeatedly ignored or quickly shut down during White House press briefings, including being snapped at multiple times by Joe Biden.
But Thursday night, during an event at Mar-a-Lago, President-elect Donald Trump allowed Doocy to ask multiple questions, and responded to each one.
Trump was hosting a dinner and meeting for Republican governors across the country at Mar-a-Lago Thursday night, after returning from a trip to Washington, D.C. where he had met with Republican senators, then attended the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter.
During the meeting with the governors, Trump allowed Doocy to ask questions for a full 10 minutes.
Doocy asked about Trump’s nominees’ chances of being confirmed, and asked about all the billionaire tech CEOs flocking to Mar-a-Lago to “kiss the ring.”
He also asked Trump about world leaders calling Trump, about a potential meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation announcement.
Doocy also asked Trump whatever happened about the drones that had been flying over New Jersey.
“I’m going to give you a report on drones about one day into the administration, because I think it’s ridiculous that they’re not telling you what’s going on with the drones,” Trump responded.
Trump then invited West Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin to speak about drones over West Virginia, and other governors jumped into the discussion as well, as they all sat around a U-shaped conference table.
At the conclusion, Trump asked Doocy, “Does Biden do this kind of a news conference?” The room erupted in laughter.
“This is my longest ever interview of a president,” Doocy replied.
“We have nothing to hide,” Trump assured him.
