great fun to read, as NYT go on a fishing expedition, but catches nothing:
5 Apr: NYT: Partial Transcript: Trump’s Interview With The Times
The following is a partial transcript of President Trump’s interview with The New York Times’s Maggie Haberman and Glenn Thrush. It has been lightly edited for content and clarity, and omits several off-the-record comments and asides.
TRUMP: I think the Susan Rice thing is a massive story. I think it’s a massive, massive story. All over the world, I mean other than The New York Times.
HABERMAN: We’ve written about it twice.
TRUMP: Huh?...
TRUMP: Take a look at what’s happening. I mean, first of all her performance was horrible yesterday on television even though she was interviewed by Hillary Clinton’s P.R. person, Andrea Mitchell [the NBC News journalist]. Course you’ve been accused of that also.
HABERMAN: Mostly by you, though.
TRUMP: No, no, no. Mostly by a lot of people. So you know, we’ll see what happens, but it looks like it’s breaking into a massive story...
THRUSH: What do you think are — what other shoes are there to drop on this?
HABERMAN: Yeah, what else could we learn on this?
TRUMP: I think you’re going to see a lot. I think you’ll see a lot...
TRUMP: I think it’s one of the biggest stories. The Russia story is a total hoax. There has been absolutely nothing coming out of that. But what, you know, what various things led into it was the story that we’re talking about, the Susan Rice. What’s happened is terrible. I’ve never seen people so indignant, including many Democrats who are friends of mine. I’ve never seen them acting this way. Because that’s really an affront on them, you know, they are talking about civil liberties. It’s such an affront, what took place.
THRUSH: What other people do you think will get ensnared in this? Can you give us a sense? How far this might extend —
HABERMAN: From the previous administration.
TRUMP: I think from the previous administration.
THRUSH: How far up do you think this goes? Chief of staff?
TRUMP: I don’t want to say, but —
THRUSH: President?
TRUMP: I don’t want to say, but you know who. You know what was going on. You probably know better than anybody...
HABERMAN: Sir, if you could give us more information about Rice. If the administration would give us more information —
TRUMP: No, you have a lot of information. No, you have so much information.
HABERMAN: If you would have given it to us last week, we would have written it. Would you declassify some of the information so that —
TRUMP: I don’t want to talk about that....ETC

The media know Trump has them and the Democrats by the b@lls.
They were fishing to see how much of the scandal info he really knows so they they could warn their friends from the Obama Regime.
Now that’s funny! I love Trumps manner even though many don’t. Come on, he is toying with them and they look and sound ridiculous! Basically saying, hey, do your jobs. Don’t expect me to give you the answers!
He leaves them hanging like the incompetents they are. Also shows how leftist’s control the media.
Neon sign meet Trump.
Haberman is connected to the intelligence community here and abroad, and Trump knows how extensive her connection is with the GOP’s Katie Walsh (who was just fired from the White House), Lady Lynn de Rothschild, Louise Mensch, and Jennifer Rubin of the Post. They are all in a network to take Trump down, presumably in part because he is a sexist pig but mostly because their globalist view and investments are in danger.
I don’t know why President Trump even talks to those NY Times scumbags. Lying churnalists like Thrush and Maggie H. are the enemy, period.
