We can tell Donald Trump that he's wrong.

Now, she can't necessarily stop him doing things that she advises against, but he is prepared to listen to her in a way he doesn't listen to other men, interestingly.
voice-verified
And Caroline Leavitt was one of the people also, I think, who was very close to him and could speak frankly to...
voice-verified
to the president in a way that some other people simply don't dare.
voice-verified
So it's an interesting dynamic that some of the people he seems to be prepared to listen to are women, not something you would necessarily have assumed about Donald Trump.
voice-verified
But it is true that, yes, there are more and more men entering the cabinet as the women depart.
voice-verified
We don't know who's going to replace Caroline, though.
voice-verified
She was a remarkably effective press secretary, not just because of her machine gun lips, as Donald Trump wants to talk about, but you can hear there that she actually was very, very on top of her brief.
voice-verified
She gave extraordinarily confident answers

Press briefings when she held them and most of the press corps as well also think that she's actually been quite reasonable to deal with behind the scenes and will be missed by quite a lot of the journalists who had dealings with her.

hidden inside a catering truck and was taken over to this other military flight because of what the Secret Service thought was a credible threat against Air Force One as it was leaving Turkey, which of course shares a border with Iran.
voice-verified
Now, Donald Trump will have hated having to do this and this story coming out, which and it was weeks after this happened that we finally found out about what was going on.
voice-verified
The idea of him sort of
voice-verified
cowering inside a catering truck as he's moved from one plane to the other is not something that he will like being out there.
voice-verified
But the question was, when were the journalists and the other staff on board told of the risks?
voice-verified
Well, not until the story came out in the Washington Post last week, several weeks after this
voice-verified
happened because certainly the press who were on board were not told that Donald Trump had switched planes and in fact there was a whole subterfuge going on where somehow he snuck back onto Air Force One when it landed in the UK at an RAF base for refuelling and he walked down the steps as though he had flown on the
voice-verified
aircraft the whole time.
