‘This is a peaceful protest!' WATCH Trump rebuke journalist who mask-shamed crowded press conference

Posted By TheNewsCommenter: From Rt.com: “‘This is a peaceful protest!’ WATCH Trump rebuke journalist who mask-shamed crowded press conference”. Below is an excerpt from the article.

During a presser at Trump’s golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey on Friday, a journalist challenged the president’s contention that the coronavirus is “disappearing,” pointing out that even the crowd attending the press event was not adhering to the state’s restrictions. The question drew audible groans from the audience.

“No, they don’t have to, this is a political activity. You’re wrong on that, because it’s a political activity,” Trump shot back, prompting cheers from the crowd.

“And it’s also a peaceful protest… you have an exclusion in the law that says peaceful protests and political activity [are permitted],” he added.

I call it peaceful protest because they heard you were coming up, and they know the news is fake, they understand it better than anybody.

Pathetic that the only place you could get an audience is at your for profit country club where you will lie again about the #TrumpVirus et al. Also, nice try on making it look like people were wearing masks when they actually weren’t until your lackey handed them out. pic.twitter.com/s0dpGTgXgJ
