President Trump on Tuesday claimed that the Wall Street Journal wants to settle the defamation lawsuit he filed after the outlet reported on a letter Trump allegedly sent to Jeffrey Epstein.

“It's in the lawyer's hands. I've been treated very unfairly by The Wall Street Journal,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One, when asked about his lawyers efforts to expedite a deposition from the Journal’s owner, Rupert Murdoch.

“They are talking to us about doing something, but we'll see what happens. Maybe, they would like us to drop that,” Trump said, adding “they want to settle it.”
