I was really saying what I said in the context of precedent. If one person demands to see the president and the president relents then that could open up the door for others to do the same. Like I said - I'm no big fan of the president but in this regard he is doing the right thing.
And, honestly, the secret service could just boot everyone away from his residence whenever they want to and he has not had them do that (I'd even guess that it was something that was mentioned to him). In this regard he is taking the high road and, at the same time, not opening any doors that should remain closed.
