POTUS is working his way along a huge press contingent and your pooler is only able to hear snatches.
Asked about Spirit Airlines, he said: “We’re looking at Spirit and we’ll help them if we can but we have to come first. America comes first.”
Asked about US military inventory being diminished, POTUS insisted: “We have more than we’ve ever had… All over the world we have tremendous amounts of inventory.”
Asked by Peter Doocy of Fox News about today being his first public event since Saturday’s assassination attempt, POTUS said: “I don’t even think about it, Peter.”
Questions and answers are ongoing.
