Note from secretary of state says ‘you need to approve a Truth Social post soon so you can announce deal first’
The text of the note handed to Donald Trump by Marco Rubio, the secretary of state, on Wednesday afternoon, captured in a photograph, suggested the president could soon announce a peace deal in Gaza on his social media platform.
“Very close,” the note read, according to an image of the handwritten note taken by Associated Press photographer Evan Vucci. “We need you to approve a Truth Social post soon so you can announce deal first.”
Trump was holding a roundtable event with conservative influencers about antifa when Rubio, standing in the back corner of the White House’s Blue Room, caught his eye.
He had news for Trump, he said, but it would have to wait until after the media left.
