...REPORTER: Thank you, Mr. President. Earlier today, and just now, you made a significant allegation against the Chinese government. You suggested that the Chinese had meddled in or are meddling in —

TRUMP: That’s right, that’s what I hear.

REPORTER: What evidence do you have of that, sir?

TRUMP: We have evidence. We have evidence. It will come out. Yeah, I can’t tell you now. But it came — it didn’t come out of nowhere, that I can tell you.

I’m going to ask you the next question because of that, okay? It’s probably going to be the killer of all questions.

I couldn't watch the thing live -- have so far managed to NOT hear that thing in our White House since the other day of infamy. I can read the transcript in segments so as to not endanger my health or nearby objects.
