"Earlier, John Dawsey, White House reporter for the Washington Post, reported a somewhat confusing scene that unfolded regarding Melania Trump’s solo arrival at Joint Base Andrews.

He tweeted that the press had been invited onto Air Force One before it left Maryland, then rushed off, but hurried back inside when Melania Trump’s motorcade pulled up. Dawsey also said a White House press aide yelled at the press to take no photos of her arrival."
