Plenty of reports in the press that I already posted to you. You are the one smearing here—repeatedly. You are the Fantasywriter.

Trump specifically stated that statements in the press are not to be believed. He said if they cite a “source,” it means they just made it up. (Not that you would listen to Trump, if the MSM is contradicting him.)

Provide a link to a direct quote from Trump, or a verified quote from one of his close associates, to confirm the smear-rumor that he had come anywhere close to selecting Kasich or Christie as veep.

I need to interject that ‘plenty of reports in the press’ has little or no meaning against the current backdrop of the corrupt news media.

I do not recall DJT or his closest advisors (e.g. Lewandowski, Mannafort, Conway) ever mentioning Christie or Kasich as being considered as VP or any post.

The press can say whatever they want, and they say many things that are speculations which they then pass off as emerging news fact with references to ‘sources say’ or ‘sources close to Trump say ...’. And Trump has repeatedly and frequently called the press to be liars.

With these facts, I would never ever consider relying on the MSM press and its deficient and deceptive reports for any information to guide my thinking process.

Just days ago NBC spread a rumor which they presented as a fact emerging that Ted Cruz was under consideration to be appointed to the Supreme Court.

I did not believe a word of it.

Instead, I caught a YouTube clip of Kellyanne Conway shooting that down hard. I’ll trust Kellyanne before any press reporter of the MSM.
