【看中国2020年4月24日讯】（看中國記者天琴翻譯）4月23日（星期四）下午，在美國白宮新聞發佈會上，記者就關於金正恩健康狀況提問。川普總統表示，有關金正恩健康問題的報導，是CNN的假消息。CNN記者繼續提問，川普說，CNN是假新聞，不要跟我講話！
以下是4月23日，白宮記者會有關節選：
記者問：你前幾天說過，你不但會和金正恩直接聯繫，你還會去搞清楚關於他健康問題的報導是否屬實。我想知道你要麼…
川普總統：我希望他沒有健康問題。我希望沒有。我和他相處非常好。如果我沒當選總統，我們可能已經和朝鮮在打仗了。記得嗎，（依照當時的情況）可是在我當選第一天就打仗的。但看看現在發生了什麼，我們在撤了，讓士兵們回家。我們不再當世界警察。我們重建了軍隊，達到前所未有的高度。但假新聞從來不認識到這一點。繼續…
記者問：你有沒有試過用你和他的關係得到更多的信息？
川普總統：我認為（金正恩病危的）報導是不正確的。我這麼說吧。這個是某個新聞網（CNN）報導的，那是不正確的。我聽說他們用的是舊的資料。這就是我所知道的。我聽說這個報導是不正確的。我希望它是不正確的。
記者問：你們上次聯繫是什麼時候？
川普總統：我不想說。
CNN記者：我有一個簡短的問題。你最近沒和他聯繫？我想確定一下。
川普總統：和誰？
CNN記者：朝鮮。
川普總統：我不想說。我不想說那件事。我們與朝鮮關係很好，好到不能再好了。我們和朝鮮有好的關係。我與金正恩有好的關係。我希望他沒事。有些人說他糟透了。不，他不糟糕，我希望他沒事。我認為那是個假新聞，CNN報導的。
CNN記者：我可以問一個問題嗎？
川普總統：不，夠了。
CNN記者：但剛才那不是我的問題……
川普總統：問題是你們不報導事實。你知道，這是我目前關心的。下一個提問。
CNN記者：我能問一下……
川普總統：不，CNN不行。你不許。我已經告訴過你了。CNN是假新聞。別和我說話。請下一個提問。

Q Mr. President, you, a couple days ago, said that you might reach out to Kim Jong Un directly, but also that you were working to find out if those reports about him being in possible medical trouble were true. I’m wondering if you’ve either —
THE PRESIDENT: I hope he’s not in medical trouble.
Q Well —
THE PRESIDENT: I hope he’s —
Q — have you heard anything from North Korea or —
THE PRESIDENT: I’ve gotten along very well with him. And you know, here we are. You would have been in a war with North Korea if I didn’t get elected President. Remember, I was going to be the one that took us into war, with my first day in office. Okay? Here we are. Look at what’s happened. Withdrawal. We’re bringing people home. We’re not going to serve as policemen all over the world. I don’t want to be policemen all over the world.
Q But have you been able to leverage that relationship?
THE PRESIDENT: And yet I’ve rebuilt our military to a level that it’s never been built at before.
Q Have you been able to get more information?
THE PRESIDENT: But it’s never recognized by the fake news.
Go ahead.
Q Have you been able to use that relationship to get more information about his status?
THE PRESIDENT: Uh, I think the report was incorrect. Let me just put it that way. I think the report was done by a network that was incorrect.
Q So you blame —
THE PRESIDENT: I’m hearing they used old documents. But I — that’s what I hear. I hear the report was an incorrect report. I hope it was an incorrect report.
Q When was the last time you heard from him?
THE PRESIDENT: I don’t want to say.
Yeah.
Q Since you pointed to me, just a quick question about that. So you haven’t made any contact, though? Just to make sure.
THE PRESIDENT: With who?
Q The North Koreans.
THE PRESIDENT: I don’t want to say. I won’t say that.
Q Okay, so —
THE PRESIDENT: We have a good relationship with North Korea — as good as you can have. I mean, we have a good relationship with North Korea. I have a good relationship with Kim Jong Un, and I hope he’s okay. And somebody would say, “Oh, that’s terrible.” No, it’s not terrible. I hope he’s okay. And I think it was a fake report done by CNN.
Q So can I ask you a question?
THE PRESIDENT: What do you have? Go ahead.
Q No, I would like —
THE PRESIDENT: No, that’s enough.
Go ahead.
Q Can I ask —
Q But that wasn’t my question.
THE PRESIDENT: The problem is you don’t write the truth, so, you know, as far as I’m concerned —
Q What are you referencing?
THE PRESIDENT: — I want to go — I want to go to the next question.
Q But can I ask you a question about Rick Bright?
THE PRESIDENT: No, not CNN, please.
Go ahead.
Q The White House has not responded —
THE PRESIDENT: You don’t —
Q — to these allegations —
THE PRESIDENT: I told you —
Q — to Rick Bright.
THE PRESIDENT: — CNN is fake news. Don’t talk to me.
Go ahead, please.
Q He says he was — but he says he was retaliated against and that’s why he was removed from his job. Do you have a response to that?
THE PRESIDENT: Okay, next question.
