In a detailed interview with CBS's '60 Minutes' on Sunday, April 26th, President Donald Trump rejected conspiracy theories regarding the attack at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. He stated that those spreading these claims are 'more sick than deceptive,' and noted that such narratives have reached the point of denying major historical events like October 7th, World War II, and the Holocaust. Trump emphasized that he has not yet heard anyone deny the recent incident happened, but warned that such claims usually emerge after some time has passed. The remarks come amid a series of public statements by the President on the political violence and its aftermath.
