Trump Decides to Fund SNAP After Court Order—With Two Major Catches
 
When asked on 60 Minutes about pardoning Zhao, Trump replied: “OK, are you ready? I don’t know who he is. I know he got a four-month sentence or something like that, and I heard it was a Biden witch hunt.”
The president then launched into an extended rant that was cut from the official version, where Trump seemed to suggest the decision had really come from his sons, who were “involved in crypto much more” than he is. “I know very little about it, other than one thing. It’s a huge industry,” he said, adding, “So I am behind it 100 percent.”
Trump repeatedly conflated his “opinion” on Zhao with what he was “told” about the case. “I have no idea who he is. I was told that he was a victim, just like I was and just like many other people, of a vicious, horrible group of people in the Biden administration,” Trump claimed.
