Trump, Following Explosive News Reports, Denies He Worked For Russia
NPR ^ | Jan. 14, 2019 | Philip Ewing

President Trump on Monday denied that he has been trying to conceal details about his discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin after a pair of explosive press reports over the weekend.

"I never worked for Russia," Trump told reporters. "It's a disgrace that you even asked that question because it's a whole big fat hoax. It's just a hoax." Trump also said he doesn't know anything about what happened to the notes taken by an interpreter when he met with Putin last summer in Finland or after other meetings with the Russian leader.

The Washington Post reported that Trump has taken at least one interpreter's notes after a meeting with Putin and instructed a linguist not to brief anyone else in the administration about what the two leaders had discussed during their closed-door meeting.

The charges are preposterous, but he did have to come out and deny them.

It's amazing that nothing has been done to close out this unconstitutional propaganda machine. My hard work goes to fund this organization that plots against me, plots against those who I elect, and plots against the Republic.

I agree. The President has every right to be both angry and strike back.

It's starting to look like the "Climate" scientists' method.

National Propaganda Radio.

It’s not like the Ministry of Propaganda needs more outlets, they already have 95% saturation of all media.

Oh yeah? Then how did he get that Trump hotel built in Moscow?? /s

What? You mean he doesn’t have one in Moscow and he’s their golden boy buddy? There’s a Hilton. There’s a Radisson. There’s a Doubletree. There’s a Four Seasons.

Yeah, they really had Trump in their pocket.

It makes my blood boil to hear these so-called reporters ask a sitting president such an outrageous question when there has not been one shred of evidence to warrant such a question.

So are J schools teaching the “throw it all at all at a wall and see what, if any sticks” theory on news reporting? It’s just so lazy and quite pathetic.

Last year when the GOP voted to fully fund NPR I came to the conclusion that they were never serious about cutting Federal spending.

I mean, If we can’t defund NPR, what on earth CAN we defund?

Liberals apparently don’t have the brain capacity to answer that question for themselves.

Straight out of the “Rules for Radicals” playbook: accuse your opponent of whatever crimes you have been doing.

I know Trump is not Reagan. But the Gipper would just have made a joke out of such a silly accusation.
