Follow along transcript...Donald Trump Fox and Friends Interview Transcript – Trump Interviewed After Impeachment Hearings
Donald Trump: (04:56) Personally, I think it goes all the way, okay? Because I think it’s impossible-
Steve Doocy: (05:00)
To Barack Obama.
Donald Trump: (05:01)
Brennan, and for Clapper, and for all of these losers that you had over there, I think it’s impossible for them to being doing things. Let’s see what it all says, but it’s impossible. Susan Rice, the person that worked at the United Nations, who went after FISA reports and went after reports like she ate them for lunch. When you look at the previous administration, they went after a few, and she was getting them at levels that nobody’s even imagined before. It had nothing to do with her. No, I think this goes to the highest level. I hate to say it, I think it’s a disgrace. They thought I was going to win and they said, “How can we stop him?” They wrote up the phony, fake dossier, the disgusting fake dossier, and they tried to have it put out prior to the election, and just to show you how incompetent they were, they spent millions and millions of dollars. Hillary Clinton paid for it and the Democrats. A lot of it had to do, they say, with Ukraine.
Brian Kilmeade: (06:00)
But Mr. President-
Donald Trump: (06:02)
It’s very interesting. They have the server, right, from the DNC, Democratic National Committee-
Brian Kilmeade: (06:07)
Who has the server?
Donald Trump: (06:09)
The FBI went in and they told them, “Get out of here. We’re not giving it to you.” They gave the server to CrowdStrike or whatever it’s called, which is a company owned by a very wealthy Ukrainian. And I still want to see that server. The FBI has never gotten that server. That’s a big part of this whole thing. Why did they give it to a Ukrainian company? Why-
Steve Doocy: (06:31)
Are you sure they did that? Are you sure they gave it to Ukraine?
Donald Trump: (06:35)
Well, that’s what the word is. That’s what I asked, actually, in my phone call if you know. I mean, I asked it very point blank because we’re looking for corruption. There’s tremendous corruption we’re looking for. Why should we be giving hundreds of millions of dollars to countries when there’s this kind of corruption? When you look at my call, I said corruption … I think he said it to me. He’s looking. He got elected on the basis of corruption. And I also, by the way, going back to that, why isn’t Germany putting up money? Why isn’t France putting up money? All the European nations, why aren’t they putting up? You have the European Union, and they’re benefited a lot more by the Ukraine than we are.
Key parts..."CrowdStrike or whatever it’s called, which is a company owned by a very wealthy Ukrainian" and "Why did they give it to a Ukrainian company?"
As you can see Steve Doocy asked "Are you sure they gave it to Ukraine?" POTUS never said it.
POTUS responded..."Well, that’s what the word is."
Nope, still don't see where the POTUS made any claim about the server being in the Ukraine. I hear him repeating what others have said.
Context is everything.
>>>Nope, still don’t see where the POTUS made any claim about the server being in the Ukraine. I hear him repeating what others have said.
And we know what “They” say is not true. Crowdstrike is not a Ukranian company owned by a very wealthy Ukranian. So there is no need for an investigation.
