"This is a car being driven by Trump and Rudy and the rest are all locked in their seats"

Part of a tweet from Maggie Haberman, about 45 minutes ago:





WH had no idea Rudy was going to say what he said last night. Neither did a number of people around Trump. This is a car being driven by Trump and Rudy and the rest are all locked in their seats

Some of Mr. Trump’s allies were frustrated that they, once again, had no advance warning of the new narrative, making it more difficult to discuss it adequately as surrogates on television.

It was not immediately clear whether the tweets were composed by Mr. Trump or if they were written by one of his attorneys or advisers, which happens on occasion.


Obviously Trump did not write them, but he does usually produce the tweets concerning the investigations surrounding him. Other, more formal tweets about official events, etc. are no doubt created by someone else.
