Knoller

Asked if he knows what @RudyGiuliani found out on his recent trip to Ukraine, Pres Trump said "not too much." But he was quick to call Giuliani "a very great crimefighter," and said "he does this out of love." @POTUS spoke at end of photo op with Governors on regulatory reform.

Pres Trump says he'd be disappointed if North Korea had "something in the works" against the US, "but we'll take care of it." North Korea has cryptically warned it will send the US "a Christmas gift" but didn't say what. @POTUS says "we're watching it very closely."

WH economic advisor Larry Kudlow expects Phase 1 of US/China trade deal to be signed in early January. Assures reporters "the deal is done, the deal is completed." Anxious to make the point on how "growthy" the deal is. Expects US exports to China to double.
