00:00:00
President Trump is suing Rupert Murdoch
00:00:01
in the Wall Street Journal for
00:00:02
defamation over a story about the
00:00:04
birthday letter that Trump allegedly
00:00:06
sent to Jeffrey Epstein. And any
00:00:07
thoughts on this?
00:00:08
First off, we should just refer to it as
00:00:09
the Washington Epstein's. And it's it's
00:00:11
not Rosie O'Donnell, it's Rosio Epstein.
00:00:13
The general sense of the Wall Street
00:00:15
Journal is that they are serious
00:00:18
journalists and that if they put out
00:00:19
something like this, they have double
00:00:21
and triple checked it. I think Rupert
00:00:23
Murdoch is going to stick up the middle
00:00:24
of finger and this will be dismissed. I
00:00:26
think that Murdoch has been sitting in
00:00:28
the shallows like an old crocodile that
00:00:30
he is waiting to get at Trump. He does
00:00:32
not like this Republican party. He likes
00:00:34
the Republican party he can control,
00:00:36
which is the old Republican party. He's
00:00:37
also 109 years old. I don't think this
00:00:40
old crocodile gives a [ __ ] and he wants
00:00:42
Trump gone. And so I think he's not
00:00:43
going to give at all. They're not sloppy
00:00:45
at the Wall Street Journal and they
00:00:46
would never have published this without
00:00:48
all the receipts. Never.
