NEW - An expert hired by the Trump campaign in its arbitration against Omarosa recommended that she pay for a $846k ad campaign to "remedy" impressions she's left in "voters'" minds nytimes.com/2020/10/13/us/…
The expert, Eric Rose, made the recommendation in a lengthy report filed last week. Campaign finance experts say if Omarosa did it it would be an illegal in-kind contribution nytimes.com/2020/10/13/us/…
Omarosa lawyer John Phillips: "This isn’t free speech. It’s speech with a gun to your head.” nytimes.com/2020/10/13/us/…
Jenna Ellis, a Trump campaign legal adviser, said it's not a demand for such ads. “The report evidences the extent of damages suffered by the Trump campaign as a direct result of Ms. Manigault Newman’s breach of her unambiguous contractual obligations.” nytimes.com/2020/10/13/us/…

.@anniekarni and me on the latest in a White House where people are simultaneously stunned by the virus outbreak there and yet still unconvinced it's a serious illness nytimes.com/2020/10/06/us/…
"West Wing aides, shaken by polls showing the president badly trailing Joseph R. Biden Jr., worried that they were living through the final days of the Trump administration." nytimes.com/2020/10/06/us/…
"Although he was described as itching to get back into the Oval Office and show that he was in charge, a potential live address to the nation was discussed but scrapped in favor of a planned taped one." nytimes.com/2020/10/06/us/…

The president's advisers hope to show that he's beaten the virus and also that he understands it better than he did. First thing he did when he got to the White House was take his mask off. nytimes.com/2020/10/05/us/…
Amid polls that were already sinking after the debate but before Trump's diagnosis, Trump's aides hope he will get a sympathy bump and that he will be able to debate on Oct. 15. But the course of the virus with him is still unknown nytimes.com/2020/10/05/us/…
Some of the president’s allies are encouraging him to see getting better from the virus as in line with battles he’s faced - Mueller, with news coverage and with impeachment. The virus is not any of those things and is impacting millions around the globe. nytimes.com/2020/10/05/us/…

"Mr. Trump, who historically hates hospitals and anything related to illness, has been hankering to get released... and some aides expressed fear that he would pressure Dr. Conley into releasing him by claiming to feel better than he actually does." nytimes.com/2020/10/04/us/…
"The president has also been watching lots of television, even more than usual, and has been exasperated by coverage of Saturday’s calamitous handling of his medical information by Dr. Conley and Mr. Meadows..." nytimes.com/2020/10/04/us/…
"He was also angry that no one was on television defending him, as he often is when he cannot inject his own views into news media coverage, aides said. As a result, Rudolph W. Giuliani, his personal lawyer, was expected to appear on several TV shows..." nytimes.com/2020/10/04/us/…

Four pieces of information in that briefing: a) Trump's fever was "high" b) Trump's lung scans show "expected findings," unclear what that means but c) Trump is on a steroid the WHO recommends only for "severe and critical" COVID cases and d) Trump's oxygen lvls dropped again Sat
Conley says fever is gone now. He says president not on oxygen right now. The new information is important. Could they be reacting overly cautiously because he’s potus? Maybe but that steroid use in a 74 year old man w breathing probs is a flag and fever can be lowered w medicine
Also - this is a virus that bounces around in terms of good days and bad days till its conclusion, like other viruses, as Conley acknowledged. Unclear what factors they’re using for possible discharge.

Conley and rest of the team members are wearing masks for Walter Reed briefing.
"Since we spoke last, the president has continued to improve," Conley says. He says as with all illnesses, there are ups and downs over the course. He says the president experienced TWO drops in oxygen sats over course of his illness.
Conley no longer sounds like he's editing himself, as he did yesterday.

Via @dannyhakim @NYTnickc and me, efforts to boost the Green Party nytimes.com/2020/09/22/us/…
Several people told of the effort said Bernie MARCUS and his top political hand, Steve HANTLER, supported the Green Party effort in 2016, a third-party candidacy which some Dems blame for Clinton's loss in key states nytimes.com/2020/09/22/us/…
Marcus and Hantler did not respond to repeated requests for comment on what took place in 2016 nytimes.com/2020/09/22/us/…
