And this, ladies and gentlemen, is yet another reason why you don't want even a non-crazy businessman in the White House. Transparency is foreign to them! Via the New York Post:
Donald Trump spent nearly his full term as president before learning that his daily schedule was being made public — at which point he ordered a stripped-down version of the document, a former aide testified.
The surprising revelation was shared by former White House deputy press secretary Judd Deere in his testimony to the House Jan. 6 committee that was made public on Tuesday.
“Every evening we prepared and released the daily guidance for the following day of the president’s public schedule. Beginning sometime around mid- to late December, the president discovered that, for the first time, my understanding, that we released a public schedule of his to the public,” Deere told the congressional panel investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
Once he found out, he changed it. Of course!
The guidance drafted by Deere for Jan. 6 and approved by White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany read: “President Trump will work from early in the morning until late in the evening. He will make many calls and have many meetings. The President will depart for the Ellipse at 10:50am to deliver remarks at the Save America Rally.”
Sounds like consciousness of guilt to me!
