Trump Violates the Hatch Act

I saw this post on Twitter from an user who is looking for the original creator the corrected NYT headline photo. Trump blatantly violated the Hatch Act by holding a portion of the RNC at the White House. In addition to this illegal act, organizers did not promote proper social distancing at the event and many people were present without masks and in close proximity to each other. The NYT failure to accurately report the situation is irresponsible as it lends credibility to an illegal act and a dangerous situation.
