Members of Trump’s country club packed close together to attend the president’s news conference.
The crowd clapped and cheered the president as the news conference suddenly took on the feel of a small Trump rally. “To me they all look like they pretty much all have masks on,” Trump said before going on to double down on his claim that the club members were actually there to protest the media and that’s why they were exempt from the state’s rules that were put in place to stem the spread of Covid-19. “They heard you were coming up, and they know the news is fake.
Aside from the clear public health issues, the optics of POTUS addressing his country club members who pay at up to $350,000 to join while millions of Americans don't know how they'll cover rent this month as expanded unemployment benefits have expired is—an interesting choice.
