Several reporters were photographed palling around with President-elect Donald Trump over the weekend and some of their viewers are not happy about it.
Mediaite notes that several reporters including CNNs Jeremy Diamond, Politico cofounder Mike Allen and NBC Newss Hallie Jackson attended a private party at Trumps Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida over the weekend, where they had an off-the-record chat with the president-elect.
At one point during the evening, Mike Allen posted a photo of Trump and the reporters in attendance on his Twitter account, where he also described Trump as relaxed and chatty.
This photo set off major alarm bells for many people who decried major media figures getting cozy with Trump especially after he made attacks on the media a staple of his campaign rallies.
In response to Allens post, several of his Twitter followers absolutely let him have it, and accused him and the other reporters in the room of selling their souls in exchange for access to Trump.

(3,290 posts)but unless I am mistaken, in the picture circulating, the pimp is the guy in the long red tie and his, we'll call them employees (whores is such a nasty word), are shown having a good old time before hitting the streets. I guess the liquor eases the feeling they are selling themselves as the nation watches in disgust.

I found out Trump Winery is in Virginia. Odd since New York State has a bit of wine industry. Maybe they wouldn't do it on the cheap.
