But I didn't tape. And I don't have any tape and I didn't tape. But when he found out that I, you know, that there may be tapes out there, whether it's governmental tapes or anything else, and who knows, I think his story may have changed. I mean you'll have to take a look at that, because then he has to tell what actually took place at the events.

EARHARDT: So it was a smart way to make sure he stayed honest in those hearings?
TRUMP: Well, it wasn't it wasn't very stupid, I can tell you that. He was he did admit that what I said was right. And if you look further back, before he heard about that, I think maybe he wasn't admitting that.
So you'll have to do a little investigative reporting to determine that. But I don't think it will be that hard.
