Looks like his Security IS capable of keeping a secret.

Time to put the breaks on the ability of the press to follow him relentlessly. It just ain't right.

Poor Obama...waving his "No one loves me anymore" flag. And where's Michelle??? Bet she's pretty bitc** since Hillary had promised her a job.

In a public place. With his wife and children.

Donald Trump is not President yet. He still has a private life that does not include accepting rules that the lying press creates. Thank God the ruling lying press is being reigned in and just might profit from learning their place. Which is not to tell Trump what he can and cannot do.

I've never been to the 21 Club, but I've seen it from the outside. It's one of the best "old school" restaurants you'll find anywhere. It's got to be the most expensive place in NYC, and they took a lot of grief back in 2009 when they modified their dress code so that ties for men are no longer mandatory. LOL.

Check out the lawn jockey statues mounted all around the front entrance:

Interesting story behind those things ... they date back to a time when some of their regular customers were breeders of top thoroughbred horses. Each statue is for a different stable owned by these customers.

Can anyone imagine Washington or Jefferson or Adams, for that matter, ever submitting to such media arrogance?

It is not important to the co9untry at all for these people to have 24 hour access to the President's whereabouts. That level of information should be reserved, exclusively, to those responsible for the President's security.

We did not elect a gold fish, but a patriot. Let the busybodies live with it.

Like the press knew where Obama was during the 13 hours of Benghazi?

No one was stricter than Washington about meeting with people.

Now I know where the precious snowflakes in academia learned how to be cry-bullies, the LEFTIST MSM demonstrates just that with this story! They just cannot hate enough to reverse this election and it is bitter gall to them. Perhaps the President-Designate (till Dec.12th) should help them with their spleen - Cod Liver Oil?

They are itching to find verbal ammo to propel at him. That is all. One does not invite a snake to dinner.

Donald Trump is refreshing.

The media was hoping to get him on something and to make a big issue of it in the next day’s papers.

This is exactly what I thought of. Didn't he essentially disappear until his Las Vegas campaign event the next day?

It’s probably too much to ask that the State Of The Union be pared back to 30 min or not at all but anything to restore some sanity and dignity after famewhores Barack & Michelle.

Speaking of the State of the Union: it's never the requirement that it has to be delivered verbally, in the Capitol to both Houses and the Supremes. That was a very recent evolution (I forget who was the first to do it). Up until that point, the President had a hard copy of the State of the Union sent to Congress.

Don't know if he'd do it, but wouldn't it be a hoot if Trump went back to the old way?

To get even for this, he should call a press conference, then lead them outside and go to a hot dog stand. He could pick up the hot dogs and lead them back inside.

Then he could eat them at the podium.

At the end he could say, “This is to make up for the other night when I had the nerve to enjoy a quiet meal with my family.

I’m so sorry I hadn’t realized I couldn’t do that without you for four years, because it would upset you so much.

Listen closely.

F off!

Yeah. I’m going to have to look up that “tradition” in the constitution.

Better get used to it, buttercups. President Trump won even with every one of you unfairly attacking him continuously 24x7, so he’s proved he doesn’t need you.

Not only that, but ya’ll have all been continuously attacking him 24x7 since he was elected, so you’ve completely liberated him from giving a damn about what any of ya’ll have to say about him now. What are you gonna do, attack him even harder now?

If Trump needs to speak to us, he can do it through social media, not you bozos, though ya’ll are certainly welcome to report his tweets and such, but of course it will no longer be news as we’ll know everything before ya’ll do.

Ya’ll thought President Trump would play by the old rules whereby he would be a good sport as ya’ll continuously attacked him, and he would just sit back and take it. Well, guess what? President Trump doesn’t play by the old rules. In fact, President Trump doesn’t play by anybody’s rules but his own.

So, no more rides by the enemedia on Air Force One, no more enemedia limos in his motorcades, and no more advance notices about anything he does. Well, maybe not exactly completely no advance notice: President Trump will tweet to us what he’s going to do and where he’s going to go, and ya’ll can read about it when we do.

As I said, better get used to it buttercups. And you have no one to blame but yourselves.

MEDIA ‘STEAK OUT’ FAILS

Didn’t Obungo make a secret trip to Afghanistan at Thanksgiving one year? And didn’t the media praise him for it. If my memory is correct, I expect Rush will cover it today.

[He then should lead him to the bathroom and invite them to watch him take a dump]

I’m surprised the media hasn’t bitched yet about being blocked from THAT! I know they are itching to report on how much TP Trump uses, or how long he washed his hands for afterward! Or that Obama’s s**t smelled better.

Could they have gotten into the 21 Club? Is is a members only club? Were they dressed for it? Could they have afforded it?
