Trump may be a lot of things but he's no coward.
You realize you are talking about a man that can't fire anyone in person. He fires via Twitter. Trump is the epitome of cowardness.
Oh and Mueller had a bronze star and purple heart.

He has the press right where he wants them and right where most americans want them. They are simply sore that POTUS wont give them standing by making an appearance. They need his appearance......because they are weak.

Let's state the obvious here. Obama was spectacular at these events and Trump doesn't want to be out classed by Obama.

Bravely bold Sir Orange
Sir Orange ran away
(No!)
Bravely ran away away
(I didn't!)
When danger reared its ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled
(No!)
Yes, brave Sir Orange turned about
(I didn't!)
And gallantly he chickened out
Bravely taking to his feet
(I never did!)
He beat a very brave retreat
(All lies!)
Bravest of the brave, Sir Orange!
(I never!)

And Carter was a saint, but neither were very good Presidents... Obama hardly would do anything right, but in the media he was their darling and could not do anything wrong, so it was a good old boys get together for Obama. With Trump hes been non stopped attacked since day one with about 90% negative reporting, so why should he indulge them. Why should he play up at all to the whole Hollywood/Media circle jerk?

Trump has to keep up the image of us vs. the media. Without that, he'd be lacking a target to take the heat off of his own mistakes.
When you research in-depth the whole media vs Trump thing, one of the first things you find out is that he's been friends and supporters of most of the high level people at these networks for years.
But hey, I'm sure it's just him versus the world.
