President Trump After Hours: Inside Trump's Guided Tour Of The White House & Residence | TIME

Photographer Benjamin Rasmussen, along with TIME’s reporters and editors, get a tour of the White House and the residence with President Donald Trump as their guide for TIME's latest cover shoot.

When Photographer Benjamin Rasmussen learned that, along with TIME’s reporters and editors, he would get a tour of the White House and the residence with President Donald Trump as his guide, he turned to an unlikely resource to plan: Gay Talese’s celebrated profile Frank Sinatra Has a Cold. “The whole premise is that Frank Sinatra will not give access to Gay Talese, so he’s having to figure out how create this sense of him without actually being able to interview the man,” he tells TIME. “I was thinking a lot about that idea: ‘How do you give a sense of this person in this space that represents, for the country, leadership and, for him, where he lives.”

President Trump After Hours: Inside Trump's Guided Tour Of The White House & Residence | TIME

The fact they spinned this negative isn't shocking, but is extremely telling about the content of these peoples character.

[christopherpacheco]

Whoever narrated this video is a child!

[meganh]

Silly me, i thought this was just going to be about a tour....

[darrell]

Perfect example of why NOT to help reporters and photographers out for the media.

[barbarafischbach]

This does not sound like a person who got a wonderful tour of the White House by the President of the United States.

[badfrog]

Dude he invited you into cool areas and treated you well and this is how you report on him. Are you really shocked when ppl call you fake news?

[kennethpearson]

Its called being nice. " Powers of pageantry?" It's The Peoples House! You Shrill.

[thepowerofzero]

If I were Trump I wouldn't let you "Time" to ever set foot in the White House again. You tried so hard to spin his cordiality into something negative that it makes me want to puke! He tried to do something very nice for you and you spat on it!

[ravindramehta]

Stick to your job. We don't need your opinion

[malisuper]

How did this guy manage to turn a video on touring the WH into an anti-Trump video. Just wow! Sad.

[TMLCentral]

"hmm lets see how i can twist a simple tour of the white house into an anti trump video to please my left leaning watchers"

[SocksWithSandals]

Dude, I didn't want a fake news hit piece, just a peek in the White House.

[vanessatorres]

is that a way to treat the president who was hospitable at you and personally welcomed you at the white house? what kind of a person -reporter are you? what a great mistake you were accommodated by the president himself.

[cherie]

I grew up with time mag in my home. I have absolutely no respect for this mag anymore. It's a shame how they degraded themselves.

[hudsonreed]

Wow! I did not expect the spin they put on this.

[lukemcdermott]

And you wonder why he doesn’t like the media, he takes time out of his day to show you around the whitehouse and have dinner with you and then you go and make a video about how “it was all just a ploy”, what happened to journalism.

[michelleclifton]

"-you are walking through history, and he likes to use that to his advantage.." does't everyone..?

[cherylcooper]

What the hell? Even hospitality is suspect and done by him because he is power happy?

[truthfinder]

Very sarcastic video. Not professional.

[ajeffries]

Well, if we aren’t an ungrateful jerk! Too bad you didn’t appreciate your one TIME visit, because the new guy won’t be there very long. Besides, he couldn’t get from the front door to the Oval Office without getting lost!
“I don’t know what I’m signing”. Classic! 😂😂😂😂
