CNN host Abby Phillip questioned Scott Jennings about why Donald Trump does not acknowledge being named in documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. Phillip indicated that Trump's derogatory remarks towards his supporters suggest he fears incriminating information exists in these files. Jennings countered that Trump has never faced credible accusations and referred to the information as unverified hearsay. He questioned why Trump should defend against what he called a ghost and deemed it old news that should not be exaggerated in importance.
Scott Jennings questioned, 'Own up to what? What the Wall Street Journal calls unverified hearsay'? Which is a redundant term that an editor should strike.'
Phillip stated, 'At the end of the day, if he's in the files, just like a lot of the other people... just own up to it. Why doesn't he just do that?'
Jennings argued, 'He's not ever been credibly accused. The Washington Post ran a fact-check... and said, We're confident there's nothing about the president.'
Phillip concluded, 'So why act like this is... something that he has to protect himself against as if it's the biggest deal in the world?'
