I so thank you very much everybody for being here. This is a long and complicated web and story, but it all goes back to the doj and Kamala and Sleepy Joe and all the rest of them. Uh We have a whole rigged election system. Nobody has ever seen anything like what's happening. Now, I understand yesterday they're bringing up Russia, Russia, Russia again that they've done for years, never found any anything. But they should be looking at China, China, China, Iran, Iran, Iran, lots of other places. I haven't spoken to anybody from Russia in years. They know that, but it's a scam but it all goes back to the DOJ because we had a trial today. It's an appeal of a ridiculous verdict of a woman I have never met. I don't know, I have no idea who she is. She wrote a book and she made a ridiculous story up. She put it in her book and we're now appealing the decision. We had an extremely hostile judge appointed by Clinton, very good friends of Clinton. Uh I guess he married, presided over the marriage ceremony of one of the lawyers on the case against us. And a, it was very sad. Judge Lewis Kaplan, angry man. He was so angry. I went to the trial. I've been in a lot of litigation over the years. I've never seen such anger or wanted to throw one of our attorneys in jail who has threatened her with jail. Nobody's ever seen anything like it over, over nothing. Nobody's ever, I've never seen such anger but all of our judges, I mean, we had a brilliant judge and I think a very fair judge in Florida. I think we have another judge who is very fair. I just asked for fair. I don't want anything different from anyy else. I just asked for fairness. We have another judge or couple of judges that I think are fair and then we have other judges that I think the whole thing is, I think the system is a disgrace, the case that we met on today and then we're going to talk about uh job numbers which are horrible by the way, horrible, like really bad and you know that I'm sure you won't report on it, but the job numbers are terrible. Uh We're going to talk about the appeal today. We had a great appellate lawyer go down representing us and uh I think John did a very good job. You have a matter of minutes to speak. It's a very complex thing because it was a set up a rig deal. Uh They had two witnesses And before I start, I have no idea who this woman is. They have a picture from, they say about 40 years ago, a picture and the picture depicts her and her husband on a celebrity line where I was the celebrity. I was been a celebrity for a long time and they were shaking my hands along with hundreds of other people. Nobody even knows where it is. Uh The problem is she doesn't know the date of this incident. She doesn't know when she doesn't know. Was it in the nineties? Could it have been further than that? She has no idea when and people do that because you don't want to give a specific date and then you find out that Trump or whoever it was was in Europe. So they tend to do that. They take long periods so that this way, hopefully he was in New York at that time. But this is a disgraceful case and disgraceful in particular because it's about a former president of the United States who is now leading in the polls to be the president again. And this is being worked with the DOJ Department of Justice as are all of these cases. They all come out Atlanta Fanny. Uh that is all department of justice. Nobody knew that. Uh the case with judge and Goran the most overturned judge in the state that is very close because they sent their team from the doj to help him the district attorney, Alvin Bragg that was all worked with. Again, they sent a top operative from the department from the DOJ Department of I call it the department of injustice because they're using the Department of Justice to rig the campaign. These cases are disgraceful now they are brought for the most part in front of very hostile areas where Republicans get three or 4% like downtown Manhattan in front of very hostile judges like hostile, like you wouldn't believe judge Mershon, Judge N Goran, uh and judge Kaplan, all of them hostile areas and very, very hostile judges. I've never seen anything like it. And very bad thing in this case, New York, very bad thing for New York businesses won't come to New York because of what took place with Judge Ngoran. I can tell you that and probably the rest of them also. But this case involved a woman who wrote a book and I guess she said something in the book. That's when I first heard about it. I first heard about it in the White House and of course, I denied the story because it's not true. I have no idea who the woman is and I never met her. Now, I don't know about a picture that was taken 40 years ago with her husband on a celebrity line. So I don't think that counts. But as far as I know I never met her, I never touched her. Uh I have, I would have had no interest in meeting her in any way, shape or form. Her husband was a news anchor. Actually, John Johnson, a very nice guy. She called him horrible things. We weren't allowed to say that in the trial. She said horrible things about him. I guess they have since divorced. He's a very nice guy, African American. And she said very bad things. We weren't allowed to use that in the trial which surprised a lot of people. But she made up a story and fabricated 100% that I attacked her at Bergdahl Goodman. You know, it's very interesting. I don't think they were allowed to use this either. Her favorite show is Law and Order. And there's a almost exact story as her story in Law and Order about being attacked in the dressing room of a department. So I don't know if they use the name of the store, but that's her favorite show, Law and Order. She said that. And anyway, this evolved into a defamation case against me because I disputed her words because I told the truth. We were called, I was in the White House and I said no, it never happened. I didn't even know what they were talking about. This was, I think I was in the oval office. Sir. Do you know anything about this? And this had to do with the book? And she had a few pages in a book making this claim by the way, there was never a claim. There was never a police report, there was never anything mentioned. There was never publicity 30 or 40 years ago whenever it took place, nobody knows. She doesn't know when it took place. When did it take place? She has no idea. She thinks it was in the 19 nineties. She thinks it was in the 19 nineties and the judge, we had two trials, we asked for a consolidation. He said no, the reason he said no is he'd rather have double the publicity because that's bad for me. Very bad because I'm running for president. And this is not the kind of publicity you like and whether it's true or not, it's horrible. And in this case, it's so false. It's a made up fabricated story by somebody I think initially just looking to promote a book. And when they called me, I denied the story, I got sued essentially for defamation because I'm denying a story where I'm right. I should be suing her for defamation. So that's where it is now. There were two witnesses. One is a woman who has followed me for years. Uh She said in 1979 I was in an airplane with her commercial flight and we became very intimate. I just sat down, I, I think I had the book, The Art of The Deal. I was famous then too. I have been famous for a long time and we're sitting in first class according to her never happened, by the way, totally made up story. She's a Clinton person too, by the way, big Clinton person, she made up the story and so many years ago and I think it would be 1979. 1 of my many people behind me could correct it. But I think she said 1979 that's a long time ago. And I sat down, I believe I had some pretty big success then and I was being talked about a lot. Maybe the art of the deal was out, you know, some time after that, I'm not sure, but I was well known and passengers are coming into the plane and she said I was making out with her and then after 15 minutes and then she changed her story a couple of times, maybe it was quicker that I grabbed her at a certain part and that was when she had enough now. So think of the impracticality of this. I'm famous, I'm in a plane. People are coming into the plane and I'm looking at a woman and I grab her and I start kissing her and making out with her. What are the chances of that happening? What are the chances? And frankly, I know you're going to say it's a terrible thing to say, but it couldn't have happened, it didn't happen and she would not have been the chosen one. She would not have been the chosen one. She has gone around for years saying the story everywhere I go, she says the story and it's a total lie. Now, I assume she'll sue me now for defamation. Like I got sued by Eugene Carroll who interestingly said she's been hurt, damaged, but she's made more money since she did this than she ever made in her life. She gets paid a lot of money to go talk bad things about me. So remember this, this whole thing started along with just about every other case I'm involved with, with the political campaign of Harris and who is having a bad time because she can't talk of Harris and Joe Biden. This was election interference. It all is. It's all fabricated but fabricated in front of very friendly judges for them and in very friendly areas for them. If you get a jury, it's very hard to win in a jury. We have three or four or 5% Republican votes. Very, very tough. Actually two witnesses. One is named Jessica Leeds. So she, she was up again, she can't get rid of her. She was up. She said I was in an airplane doing that a couple of things. You have a, an armrest in planes back in those days. Oh, by the way, she didn't know anything about the flight where we were going, where I was in very few flights. I was a New York guy building New York building and I was in very few airplanes. I will tell you in those days, 1979 I think it's a long time ago. But you had the armrest and in the old days they didn't move. Ok. But she said she then got out and she went to the back of the plane and that was the end of the story I think. And this story has followed me for years, but just to finish with her, Jessica Leeds, no police reports, no witnesses, no corroboration of any kind, no criminal suggestions. No, nothing. Then you have another one. And this one is a writer for People Magazine who I actually thought was very nice. She came to Mar A Lago and she wrote the most beautiful story you've ever seen. It was a love story about Melania and myself, a love story in People magazine and that was it, it was a cover I think, but it was a beautiful story. You would, everybody would love to have that marriage. She said the nicest things about me about Milani. You have the story. I mean you can read the story and her name was whoever let's say her name, who who sworn off. Yeah, I don't have it whatever her name was. I don't know the lady. So perhaps it's much better that way, but I really don't know the lady. So she wrote this beautiful story and about, I don't know, years later, no police reports. No anything. Years later, the same person they called up. Did you attack at Mar a Lago? This woman, this writer, whatever her name is and she was a witness in a case, her and leeds were the two witnesses. Only two witnesses. Did you attack her? I said, who is she? And they said she writes for People Magazine. I said, I don't know anything about the lady if I had a story long ago, years before about people, but it was a very nice story. So I don't know if it has to be made up because I don't know what you're talking about. It turned out that the same lady that wrote this beautiful story years later said I attacked her. Now, think of this. Oh, and she said the butler knew everything, the old expression. The butler did it right? Very famous in crime stories. Well, the butler was Tony Seal worked for me for a long time. He was at, he was retired at that time. That was years later, he retired. He was retired when this hoax came out. And what happened is he totally confirmed my story and he didn't even work for me anymore. He passed away a couple of years ago, a good man. He said the woman was crazy. It never happened. I was the one that served her whatever they she was drinking and I was there and nothing ever happened. But you don't need the butler. All you have to do is read the story think of this. A woman comes into Mar A Lago interviews me about a love story, story about my wife and myself. And during that interview, I attacked her and pushed her up against the wall violently. Ok? And then she leaves and she writes a perfect story, a perfect story. She doesn't mention the event. Again, there's nothing on file at all. Zero, there was no complaints, there were no complaints to People Magazine. There was no witness, there was nothing. Yeah. Well, there was a witness, the butler and he's already said everything he's already told this story because this story likewise like leeds, this story has followed me around. I could go through many, many other stories outside of this. You know, it's very funny when you're rich and famous, you get a lot of people come up with a lot of stories but you are writers and some of you are legitimate writers and some of you aren't. Some of you are fake news and some of you are real news. But put yourself in my position. I'm running for president and I have all these cases. All of a sudden come, come out and they are fake cases and they report back to Doj and you have Lisa Monaco, one of the people at Doj who I saw the other day talking about the Russia Russia Russia Hooks and yet she's friends with Andrew Weissman and that whole group and crew who should be sued by the way because they're not a charity. All they are is a political organization that goes after Trump for the last eight years. I mean, he's a sick person that runs that too. But Lisa Monaco is in the department of justice, but she's a Andrew Weissman person who's been after me for years so far, he's failed and he's having a heart attack because I'm leading in the polls. I guess if you look at the Nate Silver, very respected guy, I don't know him, but he has me up by a lot. So let's say we're leading or let's say we're tied or let's say what difference I'm in the race. It's between two people, but I think we're leading by a lot because the opponent refuses to do an interview because she can't talk and uh they are not going to escape through it. We are not going to have a Marxist president. The people are getting it. So we go down to court today to talk about. This case is a scam. And all I can say is that I never met the woman other than this picture which could have been a I generated, I don't know, showed up, I don't know it, but it's fine. Nice picture with her, her husband and lots of other people are online celebrity line, but never met her, never touched her, never had anything to do with her. The other thing is I was very famous. Then if I would have walked into Bergdorf Goodman, the department store that she said, everybody would have said, oh, there's Trump. And it would have been at that time on page six. Page six was the equivalent of today's internet. And it would have been a big story if I would have walked into that store, gone into a dressing room. And supposedly, you know what to her. Never happened, never happened. Total phony story. And I feel sad that I have to come up here and explain that I have all this legal talent but legal talent cannot overcome rig judges. They can't overcome a 4% Republican area. And I'm disappointed in my legal talent. I'll be honest with you, they're good. They're good people. They're talented people today at the trial, they didn't mention the dress. So the Monica Lewinsky type dress was a big part of the trial. Big, big part of the trial. I said, why didn't you mention that? And I heard there was a dress involved and I wasn't frightened at all because I did nothing with her. Never, never touched. This woman saw this woman knew I had no idea who she was. But they have a dress. Sir. I said, so what? Well, sir, it's very, they use that dress to try and intimidate me. They used that dress with the public. That dress was such a famous dress. It was Monica Lewinsky part two, the dress and the judge wanted it for trial and it was going to go into trial and then they found out there was nothing on the dress which I knew. And then the judge wouldn't allow it to be used. So they used it as a cudgel. They used it as a hammer over my head. And then the judge, when he heard that it was, it showed totally negative, totally negative. The judge wouldn't allow us to use it at trial. Then there was an Anderson Cooper interview. Well, she said essentially, no, he didn't rape me. She was selling her book. She wrote a book. The book would have been a total failure. Probably was anywhere though, probably solved more recently. Again, it is a woman that wasn't doing well until she came out with this stuff about me. And that's happened to others too. By the way, she's not the only one, but they have the Anderson Cooper tape and in the Anderson Cooper tape, it's an interview of her and Cooper says something to the effect. Did he rape you? Did he rape you? He was so happy. Oh, did he rape you? And she gave a very good answer for me, but a bad answer for CNN for Anderson. And he said we're going to commercial break right now. We're going, then she came back from commercial break and she was much more hostile. But this man wouldn't let us use the tape or the proper questions. Having to do with the tape. Wouldn't let us to judge judge Kaplan wouldn't let it be used. We wanted to get the outtake. In other words, what did Anderson Cooper talk to her about during that intermission for a commercial that he called for immediately? Why do you see this? I mean, some of you have seen it. Some of you haven't, we're going to commercial break right now. And so what happened is we weren't able to use it. The other thing is we had not one trial, we had two trials. Nobody understands why we asked for a consolidation. And I wanted to show up to the trial to the first trial. My lawyer who is not up here, not with us any longer, sir. You should not show up. You are the former president or the president. I don't even know when, when the trial was, but you're the president of the United States, sir. This is beneath you. I've got this 100%. The dress is negative, but he wasn't able to use it, sir. It's beneath you to show up. I said, but wouldn't that be bad for a jury? Wouldn't that be sort of bad for a jury if I don't show up? He said, sir, you don't have to show up. I've got this, you shouldn't do it. It's beneath you. It's beneath the office of the president. I understood what he meant by that. And so I didn't show up and I was found guilty of something that I didn't do with a woman that I have never seen touched or in any way was involved with. Nor would I want to be, I would not want to be my people say, please don't say that I would not want to be involved with her. And that's where we are. So we are appealing it and people would say it's not a friendly panel based on the appointments, but you'll look that up yourself. But I hope they understand. This is the office of the president of the United States and there has to be fairness shown. Our court system is looking so bad. If you're a Democrat, these are all Democrat appointed people. Biden Clinton make others three people. They seem very good today. And I mean, they seem absolutely fine but, uh, I've read and I've heard it's not a friendly panel, but I wasn't surprised because I don't get friendly panels. I don't get friendly panels. But where we've had fair judges where we've had brilliant judges. Frankly. I, I don't know the judge in Florida. Judge Cannon don't know her at all. But, um, I think she's a brilliant woman. I think she handled a scam. It's a scam case. That's a documents case. That's the case where Biden who had 10 times more documents took all this stuff for years, 50 years and he was exonerated. Of course, they said he was incompetent. So he wasn't fit so he was exonerated based on that. But me, I don't get exonerated so easily. And I had a thing called the Presidential Records Act, which exonerates me, but we won that trial and the other side plays the ref true and Weissman and all these people. And again, Lisa Monaco should not be involved in this because she's been after Trump for years and now she's like the second person at the DOJ, but she's with all these people and they're playing the ref and they say terrible things about judges. They do it with the Supreme Court justices because they think they're going to intimidate them. I think it should be illegal. That's what the DOJ should look into the legality of these people, taking a brilliant judge and demeaning her and taking other people that are fair and solid and demeaning them. It's called playing the ref, nobody did it better than the late great Bobby Knight basketball coach. He would play, he would scream at those refs and everything and said they say Bobby, you're not going to get the decision over 10. Y but the next one I will and he was right. He was a great basketball coach, last coach to have an undefeated season, last coach in basketball to many years ago. He also endorsed me. But he played the ref, these people are playing the ref when they are allowed to call for recusal impeachment of a judge because they're not getting their way. And for some reason, the other side doesn't do that. They don't do that. The other side is much softer. Republicans play it a lot softer, but they, they play it legitimately. So I'm gonna ask, uh, if I might, will sha to come up, just say a couple of words about what took place today. One of our attorneys working on this ridiculous. It's a ridiculous case. Remember it never happened. It was made up for political reasons and the DOJ is behind everything. Every one of these cases, it's political interference. It's a witch hunt just like the fake Russia. Russia Russia scam was a witch hunt and just like they want to start that scam all over again by announcing that Russia Russia Russia we're talking about and you know what they do when they do that, they intimidate people from having a fair election. They intimidate poll workers from speaking up when they see crooked things take place in the election. And it's a, it's a disgrace. Our country is in serious trouble. Our judicial system is in very serious trouble. Uh Will please come up. Thank you.
