Trial Balloon · Ep. 190: Trump Is Everywhere

Why Trump Made the White House Schedule Generic

December 27, 2022 · 4:47 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Remember when the Trump White House daily schedule suddenly changed at the end of his term to the president having “many calls and have many meetings” every day?

Former deputy press secretary Judd Deere testified Trump had no idea it was public:

“Every evening we prepared and released a 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. He wanted to change the way we did that.”

“And so what became the new version of the public schedule was basically a couple of sentences about what his day would consist of rather than specific times and titles of events in an outline form.”
