Trump blasts "disgrace" of "60 Minutes" question about manifesto allegations

What they're saying: "You read that crap from some sick person? I got associated with all stuff that has nothing to do with me. I was totally exonerated," Trump said.

• "Your friends on the other side of the plate are the ones that were involved with, let's say, Epstein or other things," he said, without elaborating further.
• "I read the manifesto. You know, he's a sick person. But you should be ashamed of yourself reading that because I'm not any of those things."
• O'Donnell emphasized that the words were not hers, but Trump told her she "shouldn't be reading that on '60 Minutes,'" adding: "You're a disgrace. But go ahead. Let's finish the interview. ... You're disgraceful."

Zoom out: Press freedom groups have previously criticized Trump for his verbal attacks on journalists, with the Society of Professional Journalists saying they mark "an unmistakable pattern of hostility — often directed at women — that undermines the essential role of a free and independent press."

• Representatives for the White House did not immediately respond to Axios' request for comment.
