Comedian Leslie Jones went on a heated, profanity-laden rant on MS NOWâs âThe Best People with Nicolle Wallaceâ on Monday over President Donald Trump silencing a reporter and calling her âpiggy.â
Trump snapped at Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey in November when she pressed him about documents related to deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, saying, âQuiet, piggy.â Jones said on the podcast that she would have snapped back at Trump and cursed him out, with MS NOW censoring much of her language.
WATCH:
âLet me explain something to you. I donât understand how these people let that in â I donât mean no harm. If he would have said, âShut up, piggyâ to me, Iâd have been like, âYou fat motherâââ Jones said before MS NOW bleeped her out for several seconds.
ââou stankinâ bastard,ââ she added after the censorship. âYou wouldnât be able to talk to me like that. âWho you callinâ piggy, you fat? ââ
MS NOW then censored Jones again for several more seconds.
âI mean, like, how are yâall not losing your shit like that?â she asked. âHe called a woman âpiggy.â If Obama did that, Biden did that ⌠some of the stuff, they would have dragged Obama out to the yard and executed him right there, with some of the stuff that he does.â
After the president had answered one of her queries, Lucey tried to ask him about a newly released email from Epstein in which he alleged that Trump was aware of his sex trafficking operation and knew the victims. The email emerged following House Democratsâ publication of records attempting to link Trump to Epstein.
âQuiet! Quiet, piggy,â Trump told Lucey as he attempted to field a different reporterâs question.
Democrats redacted the name of one of Epsteinâs victims, Virginia Giuffre, who asserted in a 2016 deposition that Trump did not engage in any sexual acts with Epsteinâs victims during her time with him. Other Epstein victims told NBC News in September that they had never witnessed or heard about Trump doing anything illegal during his relationship with Epstein.
