Trump Walks Back Earlier Remark; Now Says He’d ‘Of Course’ Tell FBI If He Gets Foreign Dirt

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Friday that “of course” he would go to the FBI or the attorney general if a foreign power offered him dirt about an opponent. It was an apparent walkback from his earlier comments that he might not contact law enforcement in such a situation. Trump, in an interview Friday with “Fox & Friends,” said he would “of course” look at the information in order to determine whether or not it was “incorrect.” But he added that, “of course you give it to the FBI or report it.”
