Don Lemon used this video to illustrate why Trump needs to take his press everywhere with him. The press says they have to know where Trump is for national security reasons, which I think is ridiculous because the Secret Service is present with him. The examples they give as to why? Well, first is 9/11, and the second? The second is the possibility that one of the nutty leftists they’ve ginned up with talk that Trump is Hitler will harm Trump, possibly kill him.
Now did the media make those kinds of comments when Obama ditched his pool to take his daughters to a water park? I don’t think so. They didn’t show a Reagan assassination attempt, the most extreme reason a POTUS should have a press pool, with regard to Trump. That is the most extreme example Don Lemon could use, and he went there. It’s notable, of course, that Don Lemon runs a 2 hour show nightly that is very anti-Trump.
