Pence on impact of anonymous NYT op-ed, Woodward’s new book Vice President Mike Pence joins Chris Wallace on ‘Fox News Sunday’ to discuss the New York Times’ decision to publish an op-ed by an unnamed ‘senior official’ in the Trump administration and Bob Woodward’s portrayal of a White House in disarray. This is a rush transcript from “Fox News Sunday,” September 9, 2018. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated. CHRIS WALLACE, HOST: I’m Chris Wallace. President Trump calls on the Justice Department to investigate who wrote that essay in the New York Times describing resistance inside his administration. (BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: For the sake of our national security, the New York Times should publish his name at once. WALLACE: This hour, we’ll discuss the 1-2 punch of the anonymous column. Should all top officials take a lie detector test and would you agree to take one? And reports of White House disarray and Bob Woodward’s new work. What does it mean for the future of the Trump administration? We’ll ask the vice president of the United States, Mike Pence.
