Because the entire mainstream and Establishment media was parroting the talking points of Chuck Schumer, which were patently absurd and totally, demonstrably untrue. So don't get me started on that, on the Epstein thing. Look, We put a UC on the floor, a unanimous consent to just dispense with the discharge petition, just get it passed by everyone. The Democrats objected to it on the floor. I did that. I put that on the floor. They objected to it. If they were really about transparency and honesty and they had this great urgency about it, they would have voted to let that be done. (13:28–13:39)
