In-town pool report #4: Leavitt gaggle on Susie Wiles story and Trump address

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt briefly spoke to reporters outside following a TV hit. She took one question, about the Susie Wiles story published this morning by Vanity Fair, and also clarified that President Trump's address tomorrow night will be focused on his "accomplishments over the past 11 months."

On the story about chief of staff Susie Wiles:

"This is, unfortunately, another example of disingenuous reporting, where you have a reporter who took the chief of staff's words wildly out of context, did not include the context those conversations were had within."

"What I'll say about our chief of staff, as you've seen from not just myself, but also the entire cabinet, in a groundswell of support from people on Capitol Hill who don't even work in this building, about how incredible Susie Wiles has been to President Trump, and he's been able to accomplish so much because of his leadership and his tenacity, but also because of Chief of Staff Wiles leadership and her ability to effectuate his agenda.

On tomorrow's address to the nation:

"He's going to talk a lot about the accomplishments over the past 11 months, all that he's done to bring our country back to greatness, and all he continues to plan to do to continue delivering for the American people over the next three years."

Here is a recording of Leavitt's remarks.
