The gunman who attempted to storm the White House Correspondents’ Dinner wrote a letter explaining his actions and accusing “Administration officials” broadly of various serious crimes. When Norah O’Donnell read this list of crimes to President Trump, he was offended..
“I read the manifesto. You know, he’s a sick person. But you should be ashamed of yourself reading that because I’m not any of those things,” he tells Norah O’Donnell during the 60 Minutes interview.

The truth is coming out and no amount of raging in interviews can stop it. Share this to remind everyone that the people deserve answers, not just angry denials!
SHAME ON THE LIES! Shame on your Mr. President. We have the files.

English Script:
Norah O’donnell: The so-called manifesto is a stunning thing to read, Mr. President. He appears to reference a motive in it. He writes this, “Administration officials, they are targets”. And he also wrote this. “I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.” What’s your reaction to that?
Donald Trump: Well, I was waiting for you to read that because I knew you would. Because you’re horrible people. Horrible people. Yeah, he did write that. I’m not a rapist. I didn’t rape anybody.
Norah O’donnell: Oh, you think he was referring to you?
Donald Trump: Excuse me. I’m not a pedophile. You read that crap from some sick person. I got associated with all stuff that has nothing to do with me. I was totally exonerated. Your friends on the other side of the plate are the ones that were involved with, let’s say, Epstein or other things. But I said to myself, you know, I’ll do this interview and they’ll probably…I read the manifesto. You know, he’s a sick person, but you should be ashamed of yourself reading that, because I’m not any of those things.
Norah O’donnell: Mr. President, these are the gunman’s words.
Donald Trump: Excuse me. You shouldn’t be reading that on 60 minutes. You’re a disgrace. But go ahead, let’s finish the interview.
Norah O’donnell: The other thing that he wrote…
Donald Trump: You’re disgraceful.
Norah O’donnell: The other thing in the manifesto that I think is worth looking at in terms of determining his motive, is he had been staying at the hotel since Friday. He checked and he said he had cased the place and he wrote. “What the hell is the Secret Service doing?” And he wrote this: “I expected security cameras at every band, bugged hotel rooms, armed agents every ten feet, metal detectors out the wazoo. What I got is nothing” He wrote: “Like this level of incompetence is insane.” Sir, you have already had two…
Donald Trump: Well, he was pretty incompetent too because he got caught. And he got caught pretty easily. So I’d say he was pretty incompetent, too. You know, I could take any event having to do with security or anything else. I can always find fault. These guys did a good job last night. They did a really good job.
Norah O’donnell: I mention that because, again, as his motive You brought this up. He had social media accounts that had anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric.
Donald Trump: He should read…Why don’t you read all the anti-Trump? Why don’t you read it? You just did, why don’t you read it?
Norah O’donnell: Well, he had a lot of anti-Christian rhetoric. He was part of a group called the Wide Awakes. He had attended a No Kings protest in California.
Donald Trump: No Kings.
