Regarding the flood of illegal underaged immigrants at our southern border, the journalist asks, not just from Republicans but also some Democrats. please explain...
Don't bother. We recall the president saying he does not do photo ops. We all know that means no point in traveling to the place to access the situation he caused. He has other points to his fundamentally changing America to attend.
He is not interested in photo ops. He told us so. He's interested in solving the problem.
Hugs for the valiant work they do for the patients, mind, not for any sort of photo opportunity. He's busy fixing the problem.
It's simple, telling someone, "Let's do x for cameras" is an imperative to engage in photo opportunity. The opportunity here created specifically for the cameras. It is an obvious ploy to assuage what is perceived as overreactive fear of contagion. Absurd due to it missing and not addressing the lack of confidence in government gripping the country while belying the ridiculous claim of not having interest in photo ops, rather, getting the job done. Apparently this is his job then, sorting appropriate photo ops.
It is a small thing to ask. Is consistency too much? We don't mean consistent gaslighting.

There's probably an evolutionary explanation for the phenomenon that is the modern American presidency but I haven't got the slightest clue.
I'm thinking it's something more along the lines of a subtle alien invasion.
I don't want to be right about that, but in all fairness, the end result would be the same.
Illegal alien invasion I would believe.
President's should stick to broad policy, which I guess he rather did here, with the photo op.
Otherwise they become mired in the La Brea pits of detail. Ill expressed, but hey Meade, I've had a drink or several you paragon of virtue you.
Oh, the robot test seems to be back.

This is the best thing I've ever read by Krauthammer. He's topped himself.

...These shows of calculated outrage — and thus distance — are becoming not just unconvincing but unamusing. In our system, the president is both head of state and head of government. Obama seems to enjoy the monarchial parts, but when it comes to the actual business of running government, he shows little interest and even less aptitude.
His principal job, after all, is to administer the government and to get the right people to do it. (That’s why we typically send governors rather than senators to the White House.) That’s called management. Obama had never managed anything before running for the biggest management job on earth. It shows.
What makes the problem even more acute is that Obama represents not just the party of government but a grandiose conception of government as the prime mover of social and economic life. The very theme of his presidency is that government can and should be trusted to do great things. And therefore society should be prepared to hand over large chunks of its operations — from health care (one-sixth of the economy) to carbon regulation down to free contraception — to the central administrative state.

Define irony
While being good at photo ops (one might say obsessive), our Little Zero can, at the same time, be ghastly at optics.
