DC Hotels Kept Canceling On Richard Spencer, So He Had To Hold A Press Conference In An Apartment
Source: BuzzFeed
Following violent clashes at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, over the weekend, white nationalist Richard Spencer tried to hold a private press conference in Washington, DC, on Monday. But two different hotels in DC canceled on him before the events were scheduled to start.
In the end, Spencer, a leader of the alt-right movement, had to hold the press conference in an apartment he calls an office and part-time residence across the river in Alexandria, Virginia.
Spencer, who was in Charlottesville and participated in the rally, has denied that he was one of the organizers of the events there this weekend. He was, however, prominently displayed on flyers advertising the rally.
Spencer declined to join organizers at a press conference in Charlottesville this weekend, but said he would hold one in DC on Monday. He initially planned to hold a press conference at 3 p.m. at the Sofitel Hotel in downtown DC, just a few blocks from the White House. The location was kept secret and only shared with those who submitted a request to attend. "For everyones safety, please do not share this information with any you do not trust," read the email Spencer sent to approved attendees.

What no red carpet, buffet and open bar? Say it ain't so bubba, say it ain't so.
Where were the welcoming, open arms for the race hero? Donnie's been telling fibs again, of course he wants to support his base just so long as the great unwashed stay way, way, way away from his properties.
