But when O'Donnell, during an interview recorded at the White House on Sunday, quoted from the accused gunman Cole Allen's apparent manifesto " "I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes," she read " Trump, who'd been relatively subdued in his responses, flashed a familiar anger. "I was waiting for you to read that because I knew you would, because you're horrible people. Horrible people," Trump said. "Yeah, he did write that. I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody." O'Donnell interjected, "Oh, do you think he was referring to you?" But the president blew past her question, declaring, "I'm not a pedophile."

TRUMP: I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody O'DONNELL: Oh, you think he was referring to you?
