Jeff Zeleny: This Is a Moment for Reset for Trump

‘This is the first external event that President Trump has had to deal with’

EXCERPT:

KING: "Jeff Zeleny if you're with us, as the President makes this trip, do his aides talk about this, about seeing this as -- I don't want to call it an opportunity. I don't want to call it an opportunity, but it just a chance for the President to maybe learn the lessons of some of his past behavior and keep us focus and keep us discipline here?"
ZELENY: "No question, John. This is a moment for a reset. Of course, it's not a moment that anyone inside the White House or anyone of course would have wanted or hoped for, but the things that test and define presidencies and presidents are external events. And this is the first external event that President Trump has had to deal with here. So, how he deals with this. This goes from everything from, you know, getting a big aid package through Congress to the smaller things, to hugging, shaking hands, listening to stories. That is something that defines a president and we have not seen yet this President do."
