Trump’s Latest Fox Interview Is An Almost Incomprehensible Word Salad Of Nonsense

Failed one-term former President Donald Trump gave an “exclusive” interview to Fox News Digital on Tuesday, and it’s destined to go down in history as one of the most bizarre and frequently incomprehensible things he’s ever done.

The main topic of discussion was the giant nothing burger of a court filing from Special Counsel John Durham, which Fox has incorrectly labeled an effort by the 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign to spy on Trump.

But as the New York Times notes, nothing could be further from the truth:

Fox News inaccurately declared that Mr. Durham had said he had evidence that Hillary Clinton’s campaign had paid a technology company to “infiltrate” a White House server. The Washington Examiner claimed that this all meant there had been spying on Mr. Trump’s White House office.

Despite that, Trump began the Fox Digital interview by making it sound as if there were more revelations to come from Durham:

“It looks like this is just the beginning, because, if you read the filing and have any understanding of what took place, and I called this a long time ago, you’re going to see a lot of other things happening, having to do with what, really, just is a continuation of the crime of the century. This is such a big event, nobody’s seen anything like this.”

Nobody has seen anything like it because it didn’t take place. But that didn’t keep Trump from adding:

“Who would think a thing like this is even possible? Durham is also coming up with things far bigger than anybody thought possible—Nobody ever thought a thing like this would be even discussed, let alone an act like this committed.”

From there, the discussion devolved into ranting, along with an endless stream of lies and accusations:

“Who would think a thing like this is even possible? Durham is also coming up with things far bigger than anybody thought possible—Nobody ever thought a thing like this would be even discussed, let alone an act like this committed.

“This is treason at the highest level.”

And of course it wouldn’t be a Trump interview without the obligatory attacks on the media:

“Another crime is being committed—and that’s the crime of the media,” Trump said. “The media is absolutely not—they refuse to talk about it and yet it is 10 times bigger than Watergate.

The press is corrupt and they don’t like to cover it. They’re sort of being forced. It is such a big story, I don’t know that they can play the game much longer.”

Trump failed to comment on his own endless legal problems, including news this week that his longtime accounting firm had dropped him as a client and alleged financial statements coming from the Trump Organization are bogus and a figment of the ex-president’s imagination.
