US President Trump abruptly left a press conference at the White House, explaining that he needed to hear an urgent phone call.

“I have to go get an emergency call. I’ll be back. See you tomorrow,” US President Trump said at a press conference at the White House on September 23 after giving a brief response. Ask a compact question about how the administration has addressed the Covid-19 vaccine problem. Trump gave the press conference to White House Covid-19 adviser Scott Atlas.

“I have an important call, a very important one,” stressed the US president before leaving.

When the president left the room, a journalist questioned the Kentucky jury’s decision not to charge police with the death of black doctor Breonna Taylor in March this year in Louisville. White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany quickly took the podium, introducing Dr. Atlas and White House Economic Adviser Larry Kudlow to replace the President to continue the press conference.

In late July, the US President unexpectedly ended a daily press conference on Covid-19 after CNN correspondent Kaitlan Collins questioned the information he posted on Twitter.

Trump on Aug. 8 gave a news conference to the middle of his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, after a journalist questioned him about claims about a veteran health program.

Trump resumed his daily press conference on Covid-19 starting July 21, after a period of inactivity, arguing “a waste of time.” He explained that reorganizing his daily press conferences on Covid-19 will allow him to promote his success in treatments and vaccines, as well as explain the “positive things” that the government is doing for the fight against a pandemic is also “a great way to inform the public”.
