    Hmmm, they don’t say that the photographer is an objective observer and not subject to readers to take only the photo ops they dictate. Not much money for someone who is required to travel at least 50% of the time. I wouldn’t sell my soul this this administration. As I remember Hitler had a special photographer, too.

    Paid apprenticeship in which you can hear the words “you’re fired” at any time, perhaps?
