Trump Denies He Wanted Barr to Publicly Clear HimBy The Associated Press

Updated 10:16 a.m. ET
WASHINGTON President Donald Trump on Thursday denied a report that he wanted Attorney General William Barr to hold a press conference to declare he broke no laws during a July phone call in which Trump pressed his Ukrainian counterpart to investigate Democrats.
Trump tweeted just after midnight that the story, first reported by The Washington Post, "is totally untrue and just another FAKE NEWS story with anonymous sources that don't exist."
And he continued to lash out at the press, declaring "The LameStream Media" to be the "Enemy of the People."
The Post reported that Barr rebuffed the request, which came in September around the time the White House released a rough transcript of Trump's July 25 call at the center of the House impeachment probe. The paper, citing unidentified people familiar with the effort, said the request was relayed from the president to White House officials, and then to the Justice Department.

The idiot can't write in English.
Here's his higher education, according to Wikipedia
Trump enrolled at Fordham University. Two years later he transferred to the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. While at Wharton, he worked at the family business, Elizabeth Trump & Son,[9] graduating in May 1968 with a B.S. in economics.

OP
If he hadn't issued a denial on the Twit platform, I'd never have heard the story.

As expected, the OP got pushed down too quickly, without any replies or recommendations.
