g7 and the week that was essentially, what they view as the president's accomplishments in saudi arabia and israel, at the nato summit, talking about relationships diplomatically with nations there or european allies as well as g7 and what's come out of that, discussions on trade, et cetera. but as you know, you can't control the questions. the president, i will say, is flying back to questions on the domestic crisis that involves the white house. >> absolutely. i want to get a little color. they want to talk about the trip. they want to make you talk about what they call their accomplishments but don't want to do it on camera. kelly o'donnell had an extraordinary report with thomas roberts. you aren't able to do o camera direct briefings with donald trump or his aide is that correct? only the u.s. pool is in that situation. >> reporter: right. definitely not donald trump. typically on a foreign trip like this as you know, we would have a news conference with the president. that's not happening.
