“I would just refer you to President Trump’s statement and what he said yesterday. The president has a lot of amazing stories from his life. As we all know, he was a businessman and a celebrity for decades prior to entering politics and I am just going to leave it at that.” – Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline “Cow-Toe” Leavitt, when pressed to explain Trump’s claim that his helicopter nearly crashed during a trip with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown. It was actually former California Gov. Jerry Brown on the helicopter and he says no such near-crash occurred.

NEWSMAX: Trump claimed he went down in a helicopter with the former SF Mayor Willie Brown. But he denies ever being in that helicopter. Can you explain?
