Trump is such a liar. We need to verify this is true... weirdly the Miami Herald archive is down.

I understand his reasons for lying about the stalking of Marie Yovanovitch.
But, he had to know their close relationship would be revealed.

Odd typos and typographic details.

It is an odd layout, and that hyphen before "Donald Trump" isn't necessary. There are some other things about it too.

"real" should fit on the third line without squeezing all those words together on line 2. A missing comma on line 4 (of course, maybe that's a judgment call).

But it could be seen as interesting either way, as disinformation or the real deal.

Linda Campbell's account looks legit. Just wish she had provided her source or a link.

Too many inconsistencies. And too many bad actors with Photoshop.

It gives us a taste of what is coming.

Wish there was a way to track this stuff back to its original source.

I don’t know the Herald’s type face at that time, but if it were a continuation story from the front page, it probably would have said so. And if it were started on that page, the headline likely would have been more detailed and an author would have been listed.

I think trolls are hoping for a Dan Rather moment so they can then discredit the entire story. Don’t take the bait.
