Spokesman’s denial of New York Times report that included

Photographs of Donald Trump wearing a bathrobe have been shared on social media in response to his press secretary’s assertion he “definitely doesn’t wear one”.

An article published in the New York Times on Sunday painted an unsettling picture of life in the White House, with aides unable to locate light switches being forced to meet in the dark, visitors being left to find their own way out of the building after meetings and a “darkened, mostly empty West Wing”.

The president, it was reported, spent considerable time “watching television in his bathrobe” and marking up negative news reports with a black Sharpie.

The White House press secretary, Sean Spicer, said the story was “so riddled with inaccuracies and lies” that the New York Times owed Trump an apology.

Can't even lie with the 'finesse' of Conway.

The darting eyes, the clenched face...

Bet his days are numbered.

The Mustelidae family are noble beasts compared to this crowd. Pond-scum algae are more their class.

It's absurd on it's face.

These people are fucking bonkers.

Thanks Republicans for creating this insanely incompetent crew.

The American people can't trust a word they say and have lost any respect for the office.
