Sorry, Charlie, but no cigar. Those are NOT the same photo.
Top photo has Ryan at extreme left, then Cornyn.
Lower (supposed ‘full’ photo) has Cornyn extreme left, then Ryan.
That does not negate that the CNN commentator intentionally selected the photo without the female, but in the photo-op likely several different photos were taken for various reasons and with various attendees.
Finally someone else noticed.
Why would she be missing from the other photo? I agree the two photos shown are not the same, but it still appears she was cropped from the top photo unless she was in the ladies room. Youd need to see the video to check the timeframe.
Thank you for noticing that. As well, it does not appear that the woman’s shadow is in the first photo.
Before the meeting took place I read a list of those who would be there, Betsy DeVos was the only woman.
