Trump bucks protocol on press access

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday refused to let a group of journalists travel with him to cover his historic first meeting with President Barack Obama, breaking a long-standing practice intended to ensure the public has a watchful eye on the nation's leader.

Trump flew from New York to Washington on his private jet without that "pool" of reporters, photographers and television cameras that have traveled with presidents and presidents-elect.

Trump's flouting of press access was one of his first public decisions since his election Tuesday.

Trump's meeting with Obama on Thursday will be recorded by the pool of White House reporters, photographers and TV cameras who cover the president.

News organizations had for weeks tried to coordinate a pool of journalists who could begin to travel with Trump immediately after Election Day if he won election. But his campaign did not cooperate with those requests and his senior advisers refused Wednesday, the day after the election, to discuss any such press arrangements.

Trump also broke from tradition as a candidate, refusing to allow a pool of campaign reporters, photographers or cameras to fly on his plane as he traveled to events.

Every president in recent memory has traveled with a pool of journalists when they leave the White House grounds. A pool of reporters and photographers were in the motorcade when President John F. Kennedy was shot and killed in Dallas.

The pool was just steps away from President Ronald Reagan when he was shot outside a hotel in the District of Columbia, and was stationed outside his hospital room as he recovered. The pool also travels on vacation and foreign trips and at times captures personal, historic moments of the presidency.

News organizations take turns serving in the small group, paying their way and sharing the material collected in the pool with the larger press corps. The pool also covers official events at the White House when space doesn't allow for the full press corps.

The Associated Press is among those reaching out to Trump advisers about press access.


There is no "press." Change the headline to "Trump bucks protocol on leftist propagandists" and it elicits a big shrug. Of course he does. Good for him. And fuck them.

That would be highly illegal. An employer cannot discriminate based on race, religon, or creed.


Since when have libtards embaced the rule of law?



The quote from the article
“I want to reaffirm to anyone on our team that is scared or feels personally exposed, that I and everyone else here at Grubhub will fight for your dignity and your right to make a better life for yourself and your family here in the United States.”

Seems to contradict him throwing out everyone who disagrees with his political views
'Or', it offers a window into his severe liberal/progressive mental illness and hypocrisy, given he's ready to throw one group of people onto the street while coddling another through Dem talking points.

'I just pray that the first nigga who tries to assassinate Donald Trump don't miss', another added.

One joked: 'My mom is talking about assassinate donald trump. watch out guy my white suburban mother is coming for you.'

While some also called for the death of vice president-elect Mike Pence.

'If trump wins pls dont assassinate him without getting mike pence first because his ass is fucking crazy,' one user tweeted.

Man, this thread moves along like a freight train.

Back on page 1033 I posted about a report that Trump's 2016 numbers would have beat Obama's 2012 numbers.

And I said that really sounds odd.

As I went back to look more closely, I found this:

The author said whoops, I didn't do the numbers right.

http://www.nationalreview.com/...ve-beaten-obama-2012

from the updated article

UPDATED: Obama 2012 Would’ve Beaten Trump 2016

"Here’s what happened: I used the New York Times vote-record database for the numbers in this post.

Here’s the problem: The NYT database doesn’t have the correct numbers in some states."

************************

The article sounded odd, because it was totally wrong.

The author should have realized that a 6 million vote advantage should have won the needed EVs

So back to the original point.

Why did Clinton lose ?

Because 6 million DEMs that voted for Obama in 2012, did not vote for her in 2016.

The black vote and the young people vote did not support her like they did Obama.

Some of those 2012 DEM votes may have gone to Trump.

I am so glad that Trump won, but this election was razor thin in several key states. It amazes me that several million people vote in a state, and the winner wins by a handful of votes.

Don't ever think your vote isn't important.

Just when you think liberals are stupid, they keep raising the bar.

Trump is not officially POTUS yet, but everyone here knows the Secret Service loves Trump coming into the White House. And they will not ignore these twitter accounts...

Obama the utter classless "cool kid" to the bitter end:

Despite the pleasantries exchanged between the two political foes, Earnest specified afterwards that Obama still believed that Trump was unsuitable to be president.

“Look, the president’s views haven’t changed, he stands by what he said on the campaign trail,” Earnest said in response to a question during the White House press briefing.

Earnest’s remarks contrasted with Obama’s welcome of Trump at the White House, promising to meet the standards set by President George W. Bush.

*******************
The WH spokesperson Josh Earnest would never say that w/o the green light from obama

Often times obama uses his flying monkeys to do the dirty work

Watter's World tonight on O'Reilly had some gems. It's legitimately disturbing to me how brainwashed--and yes brainwashed is not too strong a word here--these intellectually immature people have been by the left.

worth a read.

He says the DEMs are very damaged organizationally from the last 8 years, and we shouldn't fall for their tricks about compromising w them.

He is saying they are actually very weak and we need to wield our superior political power.

The support from both sides and how even the opposition is willing to go along with Trumps ideas, just shows how afraid they are of a strong leader!


Fear of the unknown and a man with a big hammer who is not afraid to use it.

I think a lot of it is empty rhetoric and pure politics.
Even Trump was playing nicely-nice today.


Huum. A little grumpy?

I was also encouraged that Netanyahu and the president of Egypt spoke positively about their future with the United States in a Trump presidency. It looks like he's getting the band back together. Wink The Muslim Brotherhood is not happy.

It looked to me that Obama was engaging in international and national redistribution of our wealth to buy love from internal voters and international enemies. It seemed idiotic to me.

I also remember how the world snapped to when Reagan was elected. I also remember about one president who spoke of walking softly and carrying a big stick.

That Trump plays "nice" is a choice. No one believes he's incapable of strength and dogged determination when needed.

By the way, "politics" is not a bad thing. It is the process whereby what is possible is achieved in our system.
