Members of the White House press corps became the latest political prop in President Donald Trump's quest to reopen the country on Friday.
The White House Correspondents Association said the administration's conduct "violated the federal government's guidelines on social distancing and needlessly put reporters' health at risk." The White House set up press seats for a Friday event in the Rose Garden, which was billed as a news conference, though Trump ended up taking no questions from reporters. The folding chairs were originally placed six feet apart, just like they have been since April, in accordance with social distancing guidelines.

These idiots were in the protests and had no problem skipping the social distancing.
He was protesting systemic racial injustice. Their objections are racist.
What a bunch of pansies.
Hilarious!
In all reality, they could have done the unspeakable and LEFT.
Left. Get it?
Sigh. I’ll keep my daytime job.
Wait. I’m retired, and rely on wonderful postings like yours!
And I mean it! We neeeeeeed the humor!
Hey, CNN?
Why do you constantly turn dead victims of criminal firearm use into anti second amendment props?
They sound like hurt little schoolgirls.
Well it didn’t work, these riots and the police kneeling to the rioters have convinced me I need a matching pair of AR15’s one for me and one for the wife.
The reason Trump did not take any questions was because they disrespected his position as president by yelling questions while he was trying to sign a Bill. He put his hand up to quiet them and they continued to shout. When he was done, he walked out.
Wow! As I scrolled through I thought it said:
White House turns press corps into anti-social distancing range targets...
No such luck, as it turned out...{:-(

The gay internet is exploding over #LindseyGraham today.
An Army of gay escorts are claiming, Lindsay has used their services for years and are trying to figure out how to get around the NDA he has them all sign.
It is rumored that DC male escorts now Senator Graham as “Lady G”
Ha ha. You’re all going to die. And what will we do without you???
The WH is not the problem and neither is Trump.
The WH Press Corp violated the social distancing guidelines, not the WH.
The reporters were free to leave the area if they didn’t think others were staying six feet apart.
Go TRUMP!
It has been suspected that he’s compromised, much like Justice Roberts.
Talks a big game, gets nothing accomplished due to risk of exposure.
Thanks for nothing, Linda.

the same FakeNewsMSM that has had no problem joining with thousands of rioters - including covid-vulnerable black Americans (according to the covid narrative) - as they take over the streets nightly!
question to FakeNewsMSM: why did you sit in each seat, when you could have sat in one of ever three seats, or simply stood at a distance? jokers.
how utterly brilliant The President took no questions.
If he’s exposed, he’s free from blackmail and can do the right thing. It’s unjust what has been done to President Trump and The People.
