Mediaite reports:
As he prepares to deliver a speech at the Davos Economic Forum in Switzerland, President Trump is calling “fake news” on the bombshell report that he seriously considered firing special counsel Robert Mueller last year.
“Fake news, fake news,” Trump said to reporters. “Typical New York Times fake stories.” Trump proceeded to brag that his presence at Davos will attract crowd sizes like the event has never seen before.
Trump might think New York Times is “fake news,” but their reporting has been corroborated by Fox News, CNN, Politico, and multiple other outlets.
