Trump's interview with Time (full transcript)

No commentary from me. No cherry-picking of an excerpt to try to sway an opinion this way or that. Just read and form your own opinion.

[quote]Yeah well if you’d look at, in fact I’ll give you the front page story, and just today I heard, just a little while ago, that Devin Nunes had a news conference, did you hear about this, where they have a lot of information on tapping. Did you hear about that?

I have not, no.[/quote]

Why we despise the mainstream media.

Is your point that it was some sort of feigned ignorance on the part of the interviewer? I believe the interview took place on the day of Nunes’ revelation, and so the interviewer’s lack of knowledge on Nunes’ press conference would be understandable. I may be wrong about that (and feel free to correct me), but that’s the impression I got when I first read the article and in fact Trump seems to be saying this very thing in the above quote. In contrast, it’s my understanding that Trump was briefed by Nunes before even his press conference.
