WEBVTT - Jailing the Press?

0:00:00.270 --> 0:00:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Okay, 720-ish Wednesday, you know what that means. Truth or Troll,

0:00:06.380 --> 0:00:08.660
<v Speaker 1>take it away, Mike.

0:00:11.260 --> 0:00:16.710
<v Speaker 2>And now, America's favorite game show, where you get to

0:00:16.730 --> 0:00:18.610
<v Speaker 2>decide on the Kuna Report.

0:00:18.950 --> 0:00:21.750
<v Speaker 1>This is Truth or Troll.

0:00:25.200 --> 0:00:27.930
<v Speaker 2>Today's entry of Truth or Troll comes from Donald Trump

0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:30.650
<v Speaker 2>speaking to reporters outside Air Force One the other day

0:00:30.730 --> 0:00:35.400
<v Speaker 2>where he ominously discusses the prospect of jailing reporters over leaks.

0:00:37.450 --> 0:00:41.100
<v Speaker 2>They would arrest the people, the reporters, unless they gave

0:00:41.140 --> 0:00:44.580
<v Speaker 2>them the names and the addresses of the.

0:00:44.540 --> 0:00:47.780
<v Speaker 1>Reporter or whoever it is that gave the leak. Obama

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:50.220
<v Speaker 1>used to go in, and if there was a leak,

0:00:50.700 --> 0:00:52.820
<v Speaker 1>they would say to people, you have 15 minutes, and

0:00:52.860 --> 0:00:55.660
<v Speaker 1>if you don't give us the information, you.

0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 2>Go into jail.

0:00:56.300 --> 0:00:57.900
<v Speaker 1>And I guess two people went.

0:00:57.800 --> 0:00:59.650
<v Speaker 2>To jail, 10 people gave it up.

0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:04.399
<v Speaker 1>I haven't done that yet. So there it is.

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:06.120
<v Speaker 2>He hasn't done that yet.

0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 1>So here's a question, Jeff.

0:01:08.980 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Is that a not-so-veiled truthful threat to the press, or

0:01:12.340 --> 0:01:12.980
<v Speaker 2>is he just trolling?

0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:17.980
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I think it's truth. By the way, he's completely right.

0:01:18.550 --> 0:01:23.550
<v Speaker 1>Obama arrested journalists because they were leaking, and he said,

0:01:23.569 --> 0:01:26.350
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to leak. You're compromising what he said

0:01:26.390 --> 0:01:31.850
<v Speaker 1>was classified information or national security information. And they threw

0:01:31.870 --> 0:01:35.340
<v Speaker 1>the book at him. Some broke and gave up their sources.

0:01:35.940 --> 0:01:39.170
<v Speaker 1>Others went to prison and the left had no problem

0:01:39.209 --> 0:01:42.130
<v Speaker 1>with it. And I think Trump is basically saying if

0:01:42.170 --> 0:01:44.190
<v Speaker 1>it was good enough for Obama, it's good enough for me.

0:01:45.430 --> 0:01:48.830
<v Speaker 1>And he's telling them to their face, you keep leaking

0:01:48.910 --> 0:01:51.690
<v Speaker 1>or publishing leaks or, you know, going to these so-called

0:01:52.230 --> 0:01:58.590
<v Speaker 1>sources and, you know, publishing classified or sensitive national security information.

0:01:59.270 --> 0:02:02.850
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to do to you what Obama did. So

0:02:02.890 --> 0:02:06.670
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's trolling. I think he's telling them, stop,

0:02:07.310 --> 0:02:10.450
<v Speaker 1>or I'm going to go Obama on your rear end.

0:02:11.830 --> 0:02:15.130
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to go Obama on your ass. So no,

0:02:15.210 --> 0:02:18.290
<v Speaker 1>I think he's dead serious. I don't think he's trolling.

0:02:18.330 --> 0:02:20.850
<v Speaker 1>I think he's telling the truth, but that's me. I

0:02:20.889 --> 0:02:24.340
<v Speaker 1>want to hear from you. President Trump now says that

0:02:24.380 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 1>he may put journalists in jail if they continue to

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 1>publish or help leak classified, sensitive national security information? Do

0:02:38.060 --> 0:02:41.870
<v Speaker 1>you believe, A, he's telling the truth? Or do you

0:02:41.910 --> 0:02:45.990
<v Speaker 1>believe B, he's just trolling, trying to get a rise

0:02:46.090 --> 0:02:48.850
<v Speaker 1>out of the media, having fun with them? You can
