The president, speaking to reporters outside the White House before traveling to Minneapolis for a campaign rally, said that federal lobbying rules prevent Gowdy from working as Trump's outside counsel until January. "Trey Gowdy is a terrific guy. I think there's a problem with, he can't start for another couple of months because of lobbying rules and regulations. So you'll have to ask about that," Trump said.
