Any bets on whether she lies about Trump’s tweet to Gillibrand? I bet she’ll defend “…and would do anything for them…” as being just a colloquial turn of phrase with no sexual connotations whatsoever.

Please, WH Press:

Don’t ask about the tweet(s)… ask -
Will the President push for CHIP funding restoration before Christmas?
Will the President support adding DACA to the government funding bill?
Will the President extend the sign-up period for people already in the process of getting health insurance on the exchanges?
Does the President support the automatic $25 billion cut in Medicare that will result from the current tax proposal?
Does the President support Paul Ryan’s plans to gut Social Security & Medicare/Medicaid to pay for the tax proposal?

Ask about substance… make them pivot to the distraction stories.

To bet she’ll tell the truth I think I’d need some pretty exciting odds. She’ll say of course he meant she’d do anything politically because she’s a Democrat and thus bottomlessly corrupt duh and it’s sickening and frankly insulting to suggest anything else you sick people I pity you. Like that. We’ve heard too much of that to expect anything different. I can’t afford to bet anyway.

Any bets as to whether or not Sanders is the one giving the briefing?
