She'll have her answers to read after prep, but considering what the line was earlier about Flynn's being framed--as he was pleading guilty in a courtroom--I doubt the prep will do much good.

That's an effort that is doomed from the start.

Sometimes she actually reads a statement from a piece of paper after being asked a question.

It is under the direction of Trump or his staff. It's obvious.

and then 'rump tweets something different within 24 hours.

My comment was meant to imply that I'm not so sure how much 'rump himself is "contributing," leaving the staff to guess on how to spin things.

If the questions are good the conference will be extremely brief.

When things get very tough or she doesn't have rehearsed responses, she tends to bolt.

she would go through as many questions as she can before the president's official event.

I've seen that before.

Can't make it today; probably out the rest of the week. Terrible cough, congestion, bleary eyes, needs bed rest. Some other time, fellas.
