Sarah Sanders dodges questions on statement about Trump Tower meeting

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said she was not going to engage in a “back and forth” with reporters after she declined to answer questions for a second day related to President Trump’s dictation of a statement about Donald Trump Jr.’s 2016 meeting with a Russian lawyer.

“I’m not going to go into detail and go into a back and forth. I know that you guys would love to engage on matters of conversations between the special counsel and the outside counsel, but we are purposefully walled off and I’m not going to comment on the outside counsel,” Sanders told reporters during Tuesday’s White House press briefing.
