Bilateral meeting with president abe of japan. i m curious what this tells us about the first lady s role as she is now with the president at the white house. we know they made the move earlier last month. is it uncommon for a first lady to sit in on some of these more formal meetings? i think it s somewhat unusual to have a first lady sit in on a bilat with a world leader as she did today. however the white house tells cnn that she was invited to sit in on this meeting by president trump and that he often invites her to sit in on meetings. so this is a little bit telling about what her role is and how she might guide or give advice to the president. she s certainly been more visible during the meetings in europe in may and now this one. we ve seen more of her and heard more from her and so i think that this is an indication that we could be seeing more of this. bennett, be thanks so much. ....
