President Donald Trump and his spokeswoman on Friday repeatedly declined to clarify the cryptic remark he made while posing for photos with military leaders that the gathering might represent “the calm before the storm.”

Trump was asked at an Oval Office event Friday what he meant by the statement, but he just winked and repeated his answer from the night before, saying, “You’ll find out.”
