Robert_Blair Is it clothing optional?

So when did Oligarchs take over the United States?...and citizens wonder why government no longer operates according to the Constitution and allows an economic 'class war' !

Just like a Klan meeting? They can say all of the racial epithets their small brains can muster in their own white comfort now. It’s amazing how fast this country went downhill after Obama. It’s almost like they want a Civil War.

Hilarious. Smh

Riddle me this: What makes members of the press either more apt to spread the virus or more in need of protection than any of the other people who will attend this event? Could it be....they'll tell the truth about what went on in there

😆

i bet they’re happy!!!

That’s convenient!

Ha ha ha

Será por eso... Si

How convenient 😂

They don't think the white outfits and hoods along with all those burning crosses will go down well with the black community.

Why should the press care, they just make up their own news anyway?

so this will be a convention of equals

“Coronavirus restrictions...”

Bull shit!

Can you imagine what he says when the media isn't there!

How so embarrassing! Meant the Republican Conventions so that Media should not see them.

I love this.

I guess there is just no end to the stupidity of the GOP. Bad choice.

That's alright. It's hardly newsworthy.

Maybe republicans should be banned instead. Due to coronavirus restrictions.

RAJUBIKRAMCHAM3

Yeah right

The very compassionate POTUS has decided that the world should not witness the death of a grand old party...when a tree falls in a forest and noone is there, does it make a sound?

FAKE NEWS Menü of the day!

Coronavirus restrictions...uh huh

sure - that's the reason....

Hahahahahahaha

Barack Obama calls for restore DEMOCRACY to the American PEOPLE by replacing functions of mayor-gouvernor-senator.. by assemblies composed in parity by U.S CITIZENS renewed BY LOT for 1 month giving right to compensatory allowances ($120/day) & training to take up their office

I totally understand the sentiment behind his expression. He's had enough of playing nice.

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Will they be allowed when realDonaldTrump rejects the election result.

the nazi party doesn't want the press around the coronation of the reality show persident

This is not right

Yeahhh, that totally doesn't sound like a meeting at 'headquarters'

That sounds reasonable, doesn't it? Um, no!

Fine. Don't cover it. There won't be any news anyway.

Dictators don't like media even when there is no pandemic. Donnie - we know you. You can't fool us!

Are they expecting a low turn-out then?

Hahaha. That's hilarious and not funny at all

Maybe trump wants to dance 😳

😆😆😆..... hey someone sneak in as a Trumpie, and film with smartphone.

They’re going to put Putin on the big screen.

Due to “coronavirus.” Riiiiiiight.

I'm lost. How are these rules being written? Can't have press at a convention but kids can go to school? Why are people not flipping out over this press ban?!? Things are getting even further out of control.

Show up and force your way in. It really is as simple as that.

TrumpMeltdown TrumpIsNotWell media RNC2020

Silencing all descension .... he is rapidly instituting fascism.

if there is no one there to report it, did it really happen?

Yeah that’s why.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 except maybe for OAN & Brietfart🙄🤣🙃

Riiiiiiight......I'm sure that's why.

The convention should be held at a hospital for the criminally insane

Sure, a convention, a gathering of people, where the only people who cannot attend...the press. What gets to me more than anything is they don't even try with the lies anymore.

They don't want the 'Whole World Watching' the dismal, abysmal display of loathsomeness.

Ban the delegates and visitors.. more effective to prevent spread!

So this whole hoax thing was a...hoax?

Lololololol 🤣

“Due to coronavirus restrictions”......hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

By that time chuds like Charlie and Pubesiac will be offering to wear wires for $100 and a box of frozen chicken tenders.

“Due to coronavirus restrictions” 1. Suuuuure it’s because of that. 2. But sending kids to school is okay?!

HITLER IN OUR WHITE HOUSE Oh no, private political meetings and we are on borderline martial law in so many locations. Secret tabs being kept on journalists. Anyone besides me seeing shades of Hitler?

I don't think they will be wearing any masks.

Blessing in disguise 😷

Nobody wants to be there to see or hear the rants of the orange orangutan

Kek. All the dumb stuff will still leak unless they steal everyone's phones.

Shades ofrussia

Marching to fascism. Safer for the Press though. The GOP with their blatant disrespect for science and therefore face masks can kill you. GOPChairwoman

Good

The GOP is running scared.

Afraid?

'Due to coronavirus restrictions' 😂

'The people lashed to the mast of this sinking ship deserve privacy,' a spokesperson with an entirely pixelated face and digitally altered voice said via remote hookup.

I highly doubt it's due to covid restrictions.

Republicans need to be too!

Trump is simply terrified at the idea of another low turnout.
