In-town pool report #9: Otter of gaggle

Here's the Otter of the gaggle with POTUS just now on the South Lawn. Early part easy to hear, then he moved to other end of scrum, and it was harder to hear.

Some quotes:

On the new F-47 fighter jet: "I think in terms of every criteria known to man, it's the best. Now, that doesn't mean in five years it'll be good.... But there's never been a plane designed or made like this, and we'll have them within about a two-year period."

On Russia/Ukraine: "We are moving along on Russia, Ukraine. We had a couple of good conversations today, and maybe we can get that death march stopped as soon as possible."

On weekend travel plans: "So we're going to be going there [Philly for NCAA wrestling] on Saturday night, and then probably down to either here or the southern White House."

Happy weekend!
