That was president Donald Trump in Richfield Ohio. Along with an hour long and local union training facility just outside hire one uneasiness with the director. Rick Klein joined here by Katherine full one of our White House reporters and this is billed as a speech about infrastructure. It certainly talk and infrastructure he went quite a ways from the air and as well. I think they'll on the infrastructure topic we've had infrastructure weeks before this is the first time though that I remember the president acknowledging that action on infrastructure is actually very unlikely to happen this year at all. Yes I haven't heard back from Kenya as he notices I think like the fifth or sixth and mr. Hampshire week we've but. He acknowledged that you know maybe it's going to have to wait until lap after the elections he blamed them. The slow rolling of this a plan on the Democrats and Ridley the first acknowledgment that may be one of my biggest legislative priorities. Isn't gonna happen. Yeah this is certainly is a pep talk for the economy and Beatty for trump voters not lost on me at least not Lawson president and Ohio. Right over the top of politics at the top of course the Cleveland area special to him. He won the state of Ohio also won the Republican nomination clothes that are right there in Ohio Alex Mallon is joining us from on site with some insight sense of reporting from the ground. I was struck Katherine Harris about how. Now acknowledging it was not elected Athens also are breaking up. Component parts are much smaller than envisioned that mask back. Right now in. Alan Alan Alan thank him Cleveland also Rolling Stones. You can always get what you want our president closed down mid rally. Over the campaign season in and Jordan also required athletes seem like this was a kind of a political. Smorgasbord the president he went on for quite up three innings worth a baseball you're watching home at opening day. Quite a bit that that he got in there but I have struck by the fact this is its first time in public and all Jordan. In about ID this is a very quiet period and the president's this in the get a bunch of lines. Cat that's right rape is the first time this week organist at and the only time. We expect to see and act I you might think there's been some stormy weather brewing over the White House. At this week at which they stormy Daniels bombshell interview airing Sunday night I right after this speech the president is in fact heading back. She was Marat state and Florida where held doing back up with the First Lady and his son Aaron he'll have been doing their spring break vacation down there. But the president hasn't been witness families since that interview airs out. I it will be interesting to see him back there alongside its why. Yeah it'll be quite quite the union and one wanna get to that in a moment but I we do want to make note of the fact that this is being. An extraordinarily. The easy month if you cap it now a month ago today hope picks announced the resignation today's actually her last day. And since then we have just had a parade of officials leaving the White House we had a secretary of state fired them. Via tweet. We have induce national security advisor. We have the firing of the FB that the FBI director of the cave and of course just yesterday the ouster of the VA secretary. To top. All off right and of course now a familiar face and all he's nominated the White House doctor doctor. Ronnie Jackson for that but that's right we learned and that social gains firing over Twitter general Kelley unlike unlike the Tillerson firing general Kelley am. It told schalken that this would be coming but it's the earned it major and personnel upheaval in two weeks and you mention all that doesn't include. I'm hope it's and other high level staffers it's really. Had been a revolving door and in some groups. Worried about the qualifications that Jackson will have you remember of silken was. Confirmed that 100 is here so it's definitely his qualifications are going to be brought up an and that process. Alex Mallon you're still with us on on site there the president did touch at least briefly on it the changeover written DA what is the mood quite. The White House the traveling part of the White House as they head off to. Or about this extraordinarily well here. We never later on the road. There. Think we're losing lives and Alex there out there and act and don't. I'm leaving us this as well. But back to you Jordan before we before we wrap everything here. You mentioned the stormy Daniels there's a habitable legal step back for stormy gales looking for a passport files like she's not going to get it. But it is striking to me still that you don't that the White House this president has not responded directly. That we know of anything in public to the stormy Daniels accusations that came out on Sunday that he has had such light schedule have you detected anything. From White House officials. Cases officials or others that the particularly concerned about the story reasons it has to explain the relative silences president's. You know Rick it's really hard take gauge when White House staffers are. I kind of really worried about a story anymore because the truth is there are sounding nature stories and salacious and scandalous. I you know headlines at come out of this White House. At that this is scientists sat than normal operations over here. They he you're right his silence is notable. We now that this is a president who always likes to strike back. And they've always sent that whenever someone attacks him he's gonna come back. At a lot times harder at bank. At Press Secretary Sarah standards kind of struggled to answer those questions the dichotomy that we're seeing with the president silence on that this week. Eyes saying that this has been asked and answered. And that the president continues to deny these reports by. Of course we've never heard those words directly from the president and another question that can't or won't answer is whether the president had any knowledge. This 130 dollar payment that the president's personal attorney Michael Colin mate to stormy you know just days before the election. Under 30000 dollars. And it of course happy and I can't think about the big question and it's it is striking that. In every briefing where Sarah's been asked about it stormy Daniels and sweet she said the president of the incidents he doesn't ones we've asked them. Questions about it but he has not had to address that I'm one time and we know that in sign. The west wing he's had debates within itself and with some aides who have said you stay away from nest he's wanted to engage in some points and and kind of backed away. So as you know down in Marla honor this week and usually he. Tweaks things that is Haines don't advise them to use so we could see something from and then back in. And finally it was a story that emerged this week the president was very happy to talk about mentioning it just for the first time right now that's the return of Roseanne right here in your ABC stations if you watched it.
