Subject:* *Travel Pool Report #9 POTUS deplaned & Rod sighting*
President Trump deplaned AF1 at 4:55 after an unexplained delay on the tarmac following arrival. He waved at pool at the bottom of the stairs but did not come over to chat. He’s on his way back to the WH.
Kellyanne Conway, Jared Kushner, Stephen Miller, John Kelly et al followed him.
The pool saw Rod Rosenstein deplane from the tail before the president departed from the front exit. He ignored questions as he walked with Hogan Gidley about his meeting with the president.
It’s been an honor and a pleasure....back to you in-town pool.
Subject:* *Pool report #2*
Marine One was wheels down on the White House South Lawn at 5:06 p.m.
POTUS disembarked at 5:08 p.m. He stopped to answer a couple questions
before walking inside. Usual caveat that it is very hard to hear over
the chopper so check against transcript but more quotes TK.
On Rosenstein: We had a very nice talk. We actually get along. Any
plans to fire him? Im not making any changes. Youd be the first to
know.
On the Russia investigation: Everyone understands theres no
collusion theres no Russia. ... The Democrats colluded with Russia.
And frankly the previous administration didnt do anything about
Russia.
On Jamal Khashoggi: I am concerned about it. Said right now nobody
knows anything about it.
On Taylor Swift: exact quotes TK but said he likes her music about
25% less now.

That’s interesting, kicked to the back of the bus? The plot thickens ...
