Yeah, this is news!

quote:

President Trump traversed a wide political chasm Tuesday evening when he personally welcomed George W. Bush, his occasional foil, to Blair House, the presidential guest quarters across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House.

But the actual distance was just 250 yards — a route Trump and his wife Melania traveled in the presidential parade limousine, with a motorcade of at least seven other vehicles.


quote:

The weather Tuesday was overcast and cold, but there was no rain. President Trump was the only one of the four to wear an overcoat.


Guess who saved gas and the environment by walking that same distance

quote:

A search of Internet archives found at least six occasions when President Barack Obama walked from the White House to Blair House. The search did not immediately find any times he took a motorcade, other than when he and Michelle left Blair House after spending the night on Inauguration Day in January 2009


They are mad about this
quote:

Like his predecessors, Trump also took a motorcade to the recent lighting of the National Christmas Tree, on the Ellipse — though Trump left the press pool behind after his speech when he returned to the White House, with the reporters stranded outside in frigid temperatures, reduced to tweeting their displeasure.

I imagine he doesn’t want another progressive terrorist like James Hodgkinson to take a shot at him.

Kind of like an airport hair cut?

There is no end to the lunacy on both sides. I imagine it’s much safer for the prez to ride. His walking might present some idiot an opportunity to confront him in the street and cause an incident. Not just Trump any President. Folks on the left and the right gotta have their knickers in a knot all the time....

Sounds safe to walk across Penn Ave with leftie loons protesting everything in pink hats.

The secret service is worried about TDS.

The media must have a real self selection problem occurring, as the people involved in this field really process events differently from most of society.

My flight out of Birmingham was delayed nearly five hours because of that haircut......that unscheduled delay Fuked up the entire southeastern traffic flow for hours.

On the Trump trip, I would bet it was on the advice of the SService. When we say Trump has balls, we probably have no idea how much. The friggin guy is doing all this while probably receiving more death threats than any previous president.

It’s really not up to President Trump whether he takes the limo or not. That is the Secret Service’s call.

And no, former president Obama walking has a different level of security just like Trump will have when he is a former president in 7 years.

So it’s a disingenuous comparison by WaPo. More fake news.

Given the extremism on the left and their demonstrated propensity for violence and shooting elected officials they disagree with I am not surprised. The SS probably told POTUS to ride not walk for security concerns.

Maybe the SS advised him to take the car.

Never know where some liberal shooter is hiding out in DC these days.

This is silly.

So tilted.

Guess you don't pay attention to him on the rally trail.

Obama didn't last a week.
