Earlier today White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany shared the latest update from President Trump’s doctor, and it was good news:

However, Yahoo News WH correspondent Hunter Walker has pointed out how long it’s been since the president’s been seen:

We have not actually seen the president in over 42 hours.

It’s almost like no matter what Trump does is problematic for the White House press:

The media: Trump waving from his balcony is literally Hitler!

Set this tweet to a White House aide who responded with this:

"When you see him, the media accuses him of endangering the health of those around him and setting a bad example. When you don't see him, the media says he's hiding away and something must be wrong. Which one is it?" https://t.co/xBzKnLImG8

So does the media want to see Trump, or do they not? They seem conflicted.

Well, the last time you saw him you screamed something about The Rose Garden event, expressed outrage over mask removal from a balcony 100' away, and dissected his 'I have faith Americans are stronger than the virus' tweet – so, just go home, Hunter. https://t.co/UMzPiUwZpM
