Marine One landed on the South Lawn at 8:53pm.

President Trump disembarked two minutes later and walked across the lawn with the First Lady. He waved at the press pool but did not respond to shouted questions.

The Trumps entered the White House at 8:56pm. They were followed in by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.

A lid was called at 9:03pm. Have a good night!
