President Trump’s tweets were printed out for journalists to read during their flight on Air Force One.
As Trump returned to D.C. from Finland, where he met Monday with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the president sent a tweet about the U.S.-Russia relationship and the U.S. intelligence community.
But journalists traveling with the White House team were unable to see it on Twitter because there was no WiFi access in the press cabin, according to Politico’s Annie Karni, who noted they “look more like presidential statements” on paper.

After the conclusion of the flight, she shared a photo of a printed copy of the tweet, which she explained was provided by White House press secretary Sarah Sanders.
