mr. trump. wolf, we want to draw your attention to one other thing that happened at the white house briefing earlier this afternoon. john bolton, national security adviser, was caught on camera. a photographer took a picture of this note pad. notice on the second line, it says 5,000 troops to colombia. just the last several minutes our white house producer, kevin liptak, was able to get a statement from a white house official over here, that very brief statement in response to this question about what that was all about. essentially said as the president has said, all options are on the table when it comes to the situation in venezuela. so a very interesting development that really sort of went over all of our heads this afternoon at the white house briefing. we obviously couldn't see that from the front row of the briefing room. what was scrawled on the national security adviser's notebook. but that very almost cryptic line there, it says 5,000 troops to colombia. the white house not knocking that d
