President Trump claims he never called Meghan Markle 'nasty' after using word in recorded interview

https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/ny-trump-claim-never-called-meghan-markle-nasty-20190602-pbbv6ntyt5epzms2d3sv4ato4y-story.html#nt=oft-Double%20Chain~Flex%20Feature~top-version1~markle-956a~~1~yes-art~curated~curatedpage

President Trump once again took the opportunity to bash the “fake news media” on Sunday when he denied calling Meghan Markle “nasty” — even though the he can be clearly heard using the word in reference to the Duchess of Sussex.

Trump had been asked about Markle during a recent interview with The Sun newspaper, and was told that she had made unflattering remarks about him during the 2016 election campaign, including that she would move to Canada if he won.

“A lot of people are moving here. So, what can I say? No, I didn’t know that she was nasty,” Trump told the UK tabloid. The comment was captured on audio.

Trump’s campaign tweeted the audio of the interview on Saturday as it criticized the media for taking his comments out of context. Trump doubled-down on his own Twitter feed on Sunday.

“I never called Meghan Markle ‘nasty,’” he wrote. “Made up by the Fake News Media, and they got caught cold! Will @CNN, @nytimes and others apologize? Doubt it!”

He’s slipping! He better watch out. His base won’t like it! How cowardly.

Or is he nervous about what Prince Harry might do?

Not only that, but you sound like a complete moron during the entire interview. You are a total embarrassment. Please just resign for the sake of the planet.
