WH reporters: Trump not answering questions as he leaves WH, Bannon/Priebus not with him

From Maggie Haberman:




Huh. Priebus and Bannon seem to have stayed behind, do not appear to be with POTUS en route to the aircraft carrier.



From Jim Sciutto:




As he departed WH, President Trump ignored questions about his AG's conversations with the Russian ambassador



So President Bannon is apparently holding emergency meetings at the WH, while Trump goes off to deliver another teleprompter speech. Bannon's staff scrambling to figure out what they, and Trump, can say about the latest stories.

I imagine one of the tactics the R's will use for not getting anything done will be because they had to deal with all this "Russia stuff". But really, when the folks you have to be doing the work with are in DC and the president has spent so much time NOT in DC, it is harder to get things done (even considering email, skype, etc).

It's the mob way.
