As Trump Leaves Press Behind for Steak Dinner, Incoming Admin Already Showing Lack of Transparency
NBC News ^ | Nov 15 2016, 10:21 pm ET | Alexandra Jaffe & Ali Vitali

In a highly unusual move, President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday night left his Manhattan residence without notifying the reporters covering him or giving any indication of where he was going.

The maneuver seemed to deliberately limit access to the media.

The only way the press eventually ascertained his whereabouts was after a Bloomberg reporter, who happened to be dining at the 21 Club, tweeted a photo of Trump and some of his transition team in the Midtown steakhouse.

Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks later told NBC News. "He is having dinner with his family."

So, tweeting to the world where he is, is a lack of Transparency? Ok NBC. Get used to it, you’re irrelevant. The world has moved on.

Well done Trump! Enjoy your dinner, if you can frustrate the MSM in the meantime, some much the better.

All Trump has to do is promise the same transparency as Obama - 0%

Best Election Ever! Watch Trump win over the press. He’s Superman (Clark Kent), Batman (Bruce Wayne), Tony Stark, etc etc, but for REAL!

I bet dinner was great too!

The press had their knives and they weren't planning on using them on the steak.

LOL!

Like something from The Onion.

Trump needs to yank the press credentials of all the Wikileaks exposed leftists (NYT etc) and give it to the real press:

Breitbart, Alex Jones, Fox Business, Hannity, The Donald on Reddit, Rush.

“Transparency” with those out to destroy your campaign and now administration?

No thanks!

Kick them to the curb and go new media.

Internet Fireside chats and continue doing rallies.

They're still throwing their crap against the wall to see if any sticks.

The press had gone insane, they have no idea what to do now.

This is hilarious. They’re so pissed that he didn’t tell them he was going to dinner without them. The press is so out of touch and has such a sense of entitlement. Comical.

“In a highly unusual move.” Really? Who says? Always note the false premise at the beginning on the article, one you must accept to “believe” the rest of the story. Nonsense!!!! A “true” accounting from the bastions of complicity with Hildabeast. Pure unadulterated nonsense.
