Jake Tapper aired an unusual segment on his program, claiming to present a new “Exclusive Interview” with President Trump. The interview reportedly consisted of text messages allegedly exchanged between Tapper and Trump, which viewers are expected to accept as accurate without further verification.

The broadcast began with Tapper stating, “We begin with breaking news — my exclusive new interview with President Trump on the prospect for a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.” He noted that nearly two years had passed since the Hamas attacks on Israel and highlighted Trump’s efforts to assemble a negotiating team to finalize a deal allowing Hamas to return Israeli hostages. However, key issues remain unresolved.

Tapper shared his questions to Trump via text, noting he was still awaiting responses to additional queries. The segment concluded with a disclaimer that this was a guest post from WLTReport, accompanied by an advertisement for a promotional code.
