Sarah Sanders denies Trump walk-out was premeditated

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Thursday that President Trump's impromptu walkout from a meeting with congressional leaders and subsequent Rose Garden speech weren't planned.

Trump "absolutely" intended to stay for the White House meeting about infrastructure, which is what "yesterday was supposed to be about," Sanders said on CNN's "New Day."

"That was what yesterday was supposed to be about until Nancy Pelosi had a closed-door meeting to talk about the impeachment of the president, which is ludicrous on so many fronts," Sanders said.

Trump's speech came as a response to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's (D-Calif.) claim that Trump "engaged in a cover-up," which she said minutes before heading to the White House.

Seriously. Trump would have to have the organizational ability to think two steps ahead.

claiming NO Obstruction, NO Collusion, with logistical details related to the Mueller investigation. Copies of the sign were given out to the press.

That doesn't point to spontaneity.
