“The Failing New York Times story, leaked by Deranged Jack Smith and the Biden ‘Political Opponent Abuser’ DOJ, about a red haired weirdo from Australia, named Anthony Pratt, is Fake News,” Trump said in a post on his Truth Social account.
Trump continued, “I never spoke to him about Submarines, but I did speak to him about creating jobs in Ohio and Pennsylvania, because that’s what I’m all about.”
[It’s interesting that Trump is reacting to this now, more than two weeks after the NYT report (10/6). It feels even older than that, given how the war in Israel quickly eclipsed this. But as I noted at the time, there were good reasons for skepticism about this leaked claim, and subsequent reporting threw even more cold water on it. I wonder why Trump’s focused on it last night/today, though. — Ed]
