Trump missing from public view since Memorial Day [View all]

Trump Has Been Shielded From Public View For More Than A Week

President Donald Trump has not had any public events on his schedule since Memorial Day, and has barely been spotted at all by the press corps since his three-hour doctor’s appointment at Walter Reed last Tuesday. Trump has sat down for interviews behind closed doors, but has yet to put himself in a situation where his stamina may be scrutinized since the appointment.

Today is no different. The president has policy meetings and “Executive Time” on his schedule — even a “Rose Garden Club” dinner — but no public appearances.

His doctor’s appointment allegedly yielded nothing to be concerned about.
