They'd be ridiculed, then kicked out of the briefing pretty immediately, then their outlet would be banned, at least temporarily, from the White House Press Pool.

They would get no response, would be removed for disrupting others, and their outlet banned and possibly investigated.

There's only one way to find out. Are you asking because you're in the position to do it? Go ahead, it will be epic

Don't forget to ask about the diapers and shoe lifts.

I would laugh my ass off, and cheer that reporter on.

Maybe even subscribe to their website

I mean what if they all did it? Until they got an answer? Every time any of the administration holds a presser the press should get answers to the real questions:

What kind of makeup does Donny use?

What kind of girdle? (Or is it spanks?)

What brand of diaper does he endorse?

Is he concerned about the persistent rumors that Jd Vance is not cis and using the “wrong” bathroom?

How is that a question any one of us can possibly answer? I dunno, he'd get annoyed and walk out?

Not his reaction : the collective reaction

Part of the collective would be slightly amused while other parts would be mildly irritated.
