White House Correspondents Association: 'Outrageous' for Trump to leave hospital without informing pool
The Hill ^ | Oct 4 2020 | BY BRETT SAMUELS

Posted on 10/04/2020 4:26:29 PM PDT by rintintin

The White House Correspondents Association on Sunday blasted President Trump's brief foray out of his hospital room to wave to supporters from an SUV, calling it "outrageous" and criticizing the lack of transparency around the photo op.

"It is outrageous for the president to have left the hospital - even briefly - amid a health crisis without a protective pool present to ensure that the American people know where their president is and how he is doing," WHCA President Zeke Miller said in a statement. "Now more than ever, the American public deserves independent coverage of the president so they can be reliably informed about his health."

without a protective pool

What's a "protective pool"? Do they mean the press pool? What are they protecting?

They are upset Trump didnt inform the media LOL LOL LOL..ya know its hilarious, the same commie media who were b*tching on Friday “Why isn’t Trump taking any questions” as he was walking to Marine One, are upset he took a 5 min car ride to see some of his supporters. He wanted to see them, it touched him so much seeing so many people praying for him, he wanted to see it in person. The same Secret Service members TOOK him to the hospital on Friday, when he was the most sick, the same Secret Service who are within spitting distance of him at Walter Reed, and the same Secret Service members who will be God willing taking him back to the White House tomorrow..but unfortunately the commie media who wants him dead(that is why they are upset) are too stupid to understand LOGIC

If they’re a “protective” force, does that mean they carry?

It’s too bad that the big media outlets did not have anyone covering the huge outpouring of support for Trump right outside of Walter Reed. If they had a reporter there, they would’ve seen the president come by. They don’t want their viewers to know that there is a big outpouring of support for President Trump. ...and no violence.

Trump blew up the narrative and they are losing it, again.

Wanna stop this crap? Shut down White House Correspondents Association. Direct the Secret Service to arrest anyone with those credentials.

They’re just PO’d because they wanted everyone to think Trump was on his deathbed...Meanwhile Trump jumps in his limo and cruises around the hospital area, waving to all those supporters.

What a burn on the media. Chop you low suckers!

The Piranha Lame Street Media gets very testy when they sense blood and can’t get to the flesh.

The gall to not ask their permission!

I worked one legislative session on the Wash State Senate as a committee staffer. One of the first questions I had of a full time staff member was what the Roman numeral 3 meant on the lapel pins the Press wore.

“The Senate is the first house of the leg. The House is the second. And the press are the third”, was his answer
