Just after Trump finished taping a 13-minute interview on Tuesday with Dokoupil in Michigan, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt approached Dokoupil and his colleagues with a message from the president.

“He said, ‘Make sure you guys don’t cut the tape, make sure the interview is out in full,” Leavitt said.

“Yeah, we’re doing it, yeah,” Dokoupil responded.

Leavitt said, “He said, ‘If it’s not out in full, we’ll sue your ass off.’”

    “Due to threats to our staff made by the office of the pedophile president by way of his mouthpiece, we have decided not to air an interview he made with us. Instead, here is a list of crimes his office has committed since the 20th of January last year.”

      Haha, you joke! This is CBS we’re talking about! They’ll do exactly as the regime desires because that’s what they’ve been doing for at least the past two months.

    To be fair, when I was her age I was a complete fucking mess also.

    There’s no reason to be fair, though.

    Yet is someone wanted to sue Trump, the Supremes would probably toss it out of court. What do you call a ruler who can never be held to account by his subjects?
