‘You’ve Got to Be Kidding Me!’ Trump Hangs Up on CNN Reporter After Just 30 Seconds as He’s Asked About ‘New’ Epstein Photos

BURNETT: “Andrew Kaczynski of KFILE is here with the new images of Trump and Epstein. And, Andrew. I shared one of them there. But, you know, so let’s start with the one at Trump’s wedding. I mean, this is a significant development.”
KACZYNSKI: “Well, yeah, it is. Trump’s wedding to Marla Maples in 1993 was dubbed the ‘wedding of the century’ by the media at the time. And although we know that Trump and Epstein were friends during this period, this is really the first time that it’s actually been reported that Trump invited Epstein to his wedding, which is, we should note, more than a decade before those first allegations of sex trafficking against Epstein. But as you know, Trump’s relationship with Epstein has been under the microscope recently. Now, besides that, one photo of Epstein entering the reception at the Plaza Hotel, we can also see him in the background of another picture. That’s Howard Stern on the far right, along with Robin Leach from ‘Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous’. And Epstein is behind them at the wedding, almost seeming to be photobombing them. We also found this photo from just a few months earlier, Donald Trump with two of his children talking to Jeffrey Epstein. Thats at the opening of the Harley-Davidson Cafe in New York in October 1993. You can see Ivana there. She would have been just about to turn 12 years old. And in that photo.”
BURNETT: “Yeah, you can see Ivanka right there between — it looks like between Trump and Epstein. All right. These are never before seen photos, Andrew. I know you also found some video of Trump and Epstein that was from later, that — of them talking. That has also never surfaced before. What’s that?”
KACZYNSKI: “Well, that’s right. This is from six years later in 1999. This video has never been seen before in this context. It shows Trump talking to Jeffrey Epstein just before models hit the runway at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show in New York in 1999. You know, the only other video we’ve seen of the two men was seven years before this. Trump is at the show with Melania, who is, of course, now First Lady, seated a few feet away from Epstein. You can see them chatting during the show as well. Allegations that Epstein sexually abused underage girls didn’t surface until 2005, years after this video was shot.”
BURNETT: “Right. But this, of course, establishes them together and obviously very friendly in 1999. So, Andrew, when you get all this and all of this, as I just want to emphasize, right, has not been seen before. So, you actually called President Trump. You called him directly to ask him about this.”
KACZYNSKI: “Yeah. We were not on the phone very long. I think our call is about 30 seconds or so. But when I asked him about the wedding photo, he said he sort of paused for a second and then said, you’ve got to be kidding me before calling CNN fake news and then hanging up on me. Now, in a statement to CNN, White House communications director Steven Cheung said this. He said, ‘These are nothing more than out of context frame grabs of innocuous videos and pictures of widely attended events to disgustingly infer something nefarious. The fact is that president — the president kicked him out of his club for being a, quote, ‘creep.’”
