Will any White House news reporters today ask Trump where his health care plan is - the one he's promised since 2016?

Trump's latest promise was to unveil it by end of Aug. - that's today.

Where's the plan?

#Obamacare #ACA #PreExistingConditions

Who is going to ask Trump about #KyleRittenhouse?

This is not a news conference. This again is a taxpayer-paid, propaganda-filled Trump political campaign event.

Why are taxpayers paying for this?

@FEC?

Trump has not mentioned #KyleRittenhouse.

Again, not a news conference but a taxpayer-paid, propaganda-filled Trump political campaign event.

@whca, when are you going to stop these? Reporters don't need to be there when it's not a news conference. And it's not. It's a propaganda fest.

Two words on Trump's claim about his people "doing a good job" in #Kenosha: #KyleRittenhouse.

Meanwhile, 183,500 Americans are dead from #COVID19.

Over 6 million people in the U.S. have been infected with the disease.

And where is Trump's health care plan - the one he promised four years ago.

#Obamacare #ACA #PreExistingConditions

Trump supporter, #KyleRittenhouse, shot & killed two people.

Trump is refusing to acknowledge that.

Trump just called #KyleRittenhouse an "interesting situation."

My gosh.

Again, not one single White House news reporter asked Trump where his heath care plan was today. Not one.

And those reporters sat by & let Trump go on & on with propaganda at what amounted to a taxpayer-paid, propaganda-filled Trump campaign event.

.@whca, why aren't you shutting down these events?

@FEC, when are you going to step up?

.@whca reporters, you are there representing all of us.

When Trump is ranting on, interrupt, ask if it's a news conference. When it's clear it's not, get up & leave!

When it's a taxpayer-paid, propaganda-filled political event, news reporters should not be passive players.
