TFG claims The New York Times' Maggie Haberman's forthcoming book about him is 'fake'

Former President Donald Trump on Friday blasted a forthcoming book by The New York Times' Maggie Haberman, saying that her details were "fake."

"Yet another fake book, by a reporter who knows nothing about me, Maggot Haberman of the New York Times, is making up stories about my relationship with foreign leaders," Trump said in a statement. "She claims I speak with Kim Jong Un of North Korea, but not other world leaders. Wrong!"

In an excerpt of the book published by Axios Thursday, Haberman says that since leaving office, Trump has told people that he's still been in touch with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

Responding to Trump's statement, Haberman on Friday tweeted, "The former president appears to have confirmed my reporting that he's told several people he's talking to Kim Jong Un since the presidency."

In fact, I predict it'll be a puff piece just like her coverage of him the past four years.

Never mind it isn't out yet and he's that last person on the planet her publisher would send an advance copy to.

I get it, Chump is always going to call it "Fake News" when he doesn't like the story. That has always been his MO and it's not going to change. Maggie has no fucks to give, she can pick up the phone and talk to everyone that Chump talks to, and they ALL CONFIRM the story. I wouldn't be surprised if she tapes the conversations, just in case there's a lawsuit.

twitter today..





I thought I might see something on DU about Maggie H.. but I haven't until this.

This sounds like she did something reality based if TFCG calls it "Fake".
