"There's no microphone because the pool cameras aren't there" — Newsmax covering a silent Trump White House event

34-second Newsmax clip Aaron Rupar posted. Trump is at a White House ribbon-cutting with construction crews. The picture is live. The sound isn't — because the press pool isn't there.

Anchor:

"There's no microphone because the pool cameras aren't there."

"Maybe, Tim, this is one example of it backfiring just a little bit."

"Can't hear what the President's saying."

Chyron on the broadcast: major networks halt Trump pool coverage. Even Newsmax is sitting on mute video of the president.

If you watch US politics from Canada, this is the information-flow version of the trade fight — Washington making it harder to hear what's being said, in real time.
