I can understand wanting to appear in a venue without the usual news media filtration. I can't understand how he could turn off his personal filter to make that comment. In this era of ultra scrutinizing every aspect of a public figure's life, a single unguarded comment can undo a lifetime of good works. It's a shame, but his "people" will have to think twice about sending the president into unscripted situations for a while.
