Trump explained the reasoning behind this decision to Fox News’ Heinrich, who is a member of the board of the White House Correspondents’ Association, the group that hosted the event where the incident occurred, the Daily Caller reported.

You said we’re going to continue the night, we’re not going to let this person derail our plans for the evening,” Heinrich, who appeared on stage with Trump during the dinner, told Trump over the phone. “Had you been told very quickly that there was no additional threat in the room? Is that why you felt comfortable proceeding if Secret Service allowed that to happen?”
