. I don't know if the president is going to — feel free to say if he is or not — but I — I think that misinformation on Twitter is not just a campaign issue. It's a — you know, it's an America issue. What role does the White House or the President have any sort of stopping that or stopping the spread of that or sort of inter — intervening in that. Some of that was about campaign misinformation, but you know it's a wider thing, right?”

KJP: “Yeah, no, I mean, you've heard us talk about this many times from here about the responsibilities that social media platforms have when it comes to misinformation, disinformation. I don't have anything to read out from here about specific ways that we're working on it, but we believe that that they have the responsibility. These are private companies, so we're also mindful of that too, but look — it is — I think it is incredibly important to call that out as you're — you're doing. I just don't have any specifics on what we have been doing internally as it relates to the interviews, not something that I'm tracking, and I'm sure the President's not tracking it either.”
