"According to a White House pool report provided to PoliticusUSA, “The pool was escorted into the clubhouse after Trump and Abe were out of view and then led downstairs to a filing room, where we’re told we’ll be staying for awhile. The door and windows are covered with black plastic so we can’t see out. Photographers were instructed not to take pictures on the grounds of a ‘private club.'”

1. Black plastic sheets

Also work great for golden showers

2. Taxpayers money going straight to his pocket..

7. You've Heard Of OPM (other people's money) Trump Uses APM....

American People's Money.

Your tax dollars at work.

I use to rationalize paying taxes as a good thing. The Government was keeping me safe. Safe water. Combating pollution of my air. Safe and effective medications. Safe cars. Safe roads. Good public schools. Social security. Medicare. Safe workplaces. etc, etc, etc.

I didn't mind paying my fair share as I knew that I was a beneficiary as well.

Now with 45Pee I don't think I'll be getting my money's worth when I pay taxes.

The Repugs and 45Pee are upturning everything that made this country great.

Make America Great Again - my ass!!!!

The biggest lie.

3. Good! Let him feel like he has to barricade himself

And he'll have to live without some of the scenery, too! At least, I hope this is what happens.

[we can do it]

4. Why not just pull the plastic off?

[mopinko]

10. press rolls over and accepts black plastic barriers.

[we can do it]

11. Well, it is taped on.

[Island Blue]

5. Is he on vacation. Again?

Also, it does my heart a wee bit of good knowing that his life is so fucking miserable at the moment.

6. Meh. We can all guess what happens at those AA meetings:

Hi, I'm Don, and I'm an asshole

Hi, Don!

[Cha]

8. hey trump fans.. how you like his stupid hideaway, sneaky ass Now?

[msongs]

9. wonder what would happen if a reporter took down the plastic - banning? arrest? deporation?

[we can do it]

12. Sticky fingers? Suffocation?

[2naSalit]

13. Ha!

Sounds like a bunch of MSM pussies got grabbed by the cheato and didn't dare fight back.

[smirkymonkey]

14. Um, aren't we paying for this little jaunt?

If so, then he has no right to privacy. Fuck him.

[bigtree]

15. is this his summer WH?

[Hortensis]

17. Bullies treat people badly because they can,

and so we see here. It's not all about privacy, or even all about trying to limit the "mean" things the press might say. It's about the 47th kicking down because he can, and because he's really stupid and vindictive. We know this because we know HIM all too well.

HOW stupid and petty-vindictive is this man elevated far, far above his level of competence? In a luxury resort, they passed up various comfortable lounges and instead confined the White House traveling press corps for hours in a file room.

He's already doing a good job of that himself, but I guess we could try to help spread awareness.
