Extra credit. Is there any other exculpatory evidence? The Wall Street Journal. They got the following on -the -record quote from Trump that said, in part, I never wrote a picture in my life. He then doubled down on his social media platform, posting, I don't draw pictures. Yes! Donald Trump neither writes pictures nor draws pictures, which as the experts will tell you, are the two leading causes of pictures.
