Excerpt From the Trump/Dorset Sessions

July 1, 2018, 7:49 AM

Dorset: The race for the White House was a wild one. On the Republican side, you battled it out with more than a dozen other serious contenders—

Trump: I would hardly call them “serious.” There was only ever one serious candidate for the Republican nomination. His name was Donald J. Trump.

Dorset: You certainly garnered the majority of votes. Still, Ted Cruz, the junior senator from Texas, gave you a run for your money late in the campaign.

Trump: Lying Ted Cruz? Don’t get me started on that guy. We all saw what happened to him in the end. Terribly sad. I knew he was a liar. I take no pleasure in being right about him, you know. I wish he’d been caught sooner, but he’s behind bars now.

Dorset: I’d like to ask you about that. After you were sworn in, one of your first actions was to have the FBI reopen the Zodiac Killer case. Within a matter of weeks, they had arrested a suspect in the series of grisly killings that took place in California during the late sixties and early seventies: Ted Cruz.

Trump: Brilliant work by the FBI.

Dorset: The Zodiac Killer’s first confirmed murder, a double homicide in Solano County, was in December of 1968. Ted Cruz was born in Calgary in December of 1970.

Trump: Being born in Canada doesn’t preclude someone from being a serial killer. It does preclude them from being president of the United States of America, but that’s another story entirely.

Dorset: I’m asking if it makes any sense that he’s the Zodiac Killer, given that all five of the murders law enforcement attributed to him occurred before he was even born.

Trump: Ask the jury. I wasn’t in the courtroom. I didn’t see the evidence.

Dorset: You really believe a jury could legitimately convict somebody for murders that couldn’t be committed without a time machine?

Trump: I have faith in our justice system. Answer me this: Since Lying Ted Cruz has been locked up, has there been another Zodiac Killer murder? No, there hasn’t. I rest my case.
