Trump made some quick comments today in the Oval Office. You can watch by clicking on the photo:
If you recognize the person sitting with the President, he’s Ji Seong-ho, the North Korean defector Trump featured in his State of the Union address.
As we previously reported Trump early this morning issued some incendiary Tweets, including one quoting a notorious conspiracy theorist with close ties to Steve Bannon.
We’ll try to update you on any major fallout that may occur over the weekend. And we’ll see you Monday no matter what.
