"Sir, if there's nothing incriminating in the files--" she began before Trump cut her off, shouting, "Quiet! Quiet!"

“I know nothing about that,” said Trump. “They would’ve announced that a long time ago. It’s really, what did he mean when he spent all the time with Bill Clinton, with the president of Harvard, who you know, that is Summers, Larry Summers, whatever his name is, and all of the other people that he spent time with.”

“Jeffrey Epstein and I had a very bad relationship for many years, but he also saw a strength because I was president,” he continued. ”So he dictated a couple of memos to himself. Give me a break. You’ve got to find out what did he know with respect to Bill Clinton, with respect to the head of Harvard, with the respect of all of those people that he knew, including JPMorgan Chase.”

When the reporter attempted to follow up, Trump loudly shushed her.

“Sir, if there’s nothing incriminating in the files—” she began before Trump cut her off, shouting, “Quiet! Quiet!”

They sure look like it to those of us using voice recognition technology in that era.
However, I doubt that he (Trump) would do that since he had human underlings to boss around during dictation.
So why does he have those details to give?
