Trump Hangs Up On Reporters And Hides After Being Busted As His Own Fake PR Person

http://www.politicususa.com/2016/05/13/trump-hangs-reporters-hides-busted-fake-pr-person.html

Donald Trump hung up on reporters in the middle of an interview and then had his secretary say that he was unable to take their call after he was asked if he ever employed “John Miller” which is one of the names that Trump used when he acted as his own fake PR person.

The Washington Post reported:
Then, Friday afternoon, Washington Post reporters who were 44 minutes into a phone interview with Trump about his finances asked him a question about Miller: “Did you ever employ someone named John Miller as a spokesperson?”

The phone went silent, then dead. When the reporters called back and reached Trump’s secretary, she said, “I heard you got disconnected. He can’t take the call now. I don’t know what happened.”...

In other words, Donald Trump did the exact opposite of what a responsible adult who is fit to be the nation’s Commander In Chief would do.

After seeing how GWB reacted to being grilled by the British press, Trump would likely ban all national and international press after his first grilling, too.

5. VIDEO: Interview with original reporter

So within the video is a direct interview with the original reporter. In it she states that only two people could have the recording of T-rump acting as his own PR person. She says that she LOST the tape 25 years ago in her house which means the ONLY person that could have the recording in 2016
is Trump himself.
