In town pool 4 - event begins

Pool entered the Roosevelt Room at 3:02.

POTUS is meeting with business leaders.

Various WH staff filtered through the foyer beforehand in holiday attire, including Margo Martin and her mom.

POTUS was saying the “stock market only goes up” as the pool came in.

He brought up the seizure of a tanker off the VZ coast. “Largest one ever.”

He said the Trump Gold Card site goes live in 30 mins.

Seated are Lutnick, Tech CEO Council Bruce Mehlman and others. Michael Dell is to Trump’s right. Trump noted his big charity initiative and invited him to speak.

Lutnick described rates for individuals and corporations for the gold card.

Will send some additional quotes.
