Donald Trump’s team is pissed after journalist Bob Woodward detailed all the evidence that the former president is close to the Russian leader.
Donald Trump’s campaign team is lashing out against a journalist following news that the former president secretly kept in touch with Russian President Vladimir Putin after leaving the Oval Office.
A statement put out by Trump’s communications director, Steven Cheung, is rife with ad hominem attacks against journalist Bob Woodward, calling him a “total sleazebag,” “an angry, little man,” “a truly demented and deranged man,” and also “a boring person with no personality.”

None of those words were denial, or calling him a liar. Interesting
Edit: I’ve read it now, and there is a denial.
If anything, them lashing out just means he really said and did the things in the book.
Steven Cheung
That’s all you need to know - I’ve never seen a response from this Trump campaign spokesperson that’s distinguishable from North Korean state television.
Funnily enough, the phrase “non-denial denial” was popularized by Woodward & Bernstein
Bro, read his first sentence! Trump is a piece is shit, and we have plenty of ammunition without just lying about things.
The first sentence of the actual response says this.
I still love that Colbert called him “Putin’s Cock Holster” on a major TV Network.
lol, what episode?
Found a link. https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/video/2017/may/06/stephen-colbert-donald-trump-insults-putin-cancer-video It seems a lot of people view it as a homophobic statement.
Who would’ve thought that a bunch of bottoms might have something up their ass.
Some people just have a guy to aim their cock when they piss, nothing gay about it, unless you make eye contact.
Nah, nothing wrong with being a cock holster, just don’t be one for Putin

then apologized to the fake outrage
I mean, I guess it is mildly offensive to gay dudes, but tbh if I was gay I’d still think that Colbert’s comment was hilarious
I’m not gay so take it with a grain of salt but I don’t think it’s at all offensive to gay dudes.
the reason is because the punchline of cock holster joke isn’t the fact that they’re both dudes; that would have been offensive. but the punchline is the orange cunt pleasing putin at every turn and being submissive to him.
I’m not saying it’s a good thing but we use sexual language as insult all the time. it’s not particularly offensive to straight women or gay dudes when you say something’s “totally fucked”, or someone’s"dick riding"… it was fake outrage that I’m positive came from conservatives and maybe some non-gay virtue signaling liberals.
but hey if anyone’s gay and found that offensive let me know I will concede.
Sources also report Trump was heard calling him a “big meanie,” a “dumb dumb,” and a “stupid head.”
Right before getting distracted by another fly.
Aww, someone upset the poor baby by telling the truth.
The headline shouldn’t be about Trumps hurt feelings, but about the book and the ties to Putin.
such headline is out there as well. you can report about multiple things at once. and the fact trump is angry gives credibility to the report.
If the article were specifically about his reaction to the revelations, it still shouldn’t mention his hurt feelings, it should be about him not denying any of it
They’re probably hiring. Make the changes you want to see.
And about how this is a legitimate and respected investigative journalist. I had to double check that it was the same Woodward from watergate, and it is
I mean like it’s always good to know about this stuff, but at this point already it’s basically
“The left”: Duh!
“The Right”: DeMoCrAt LiEs!
I don’t even know why they bother responding to this kind of stuff anyway.
Consensus reality is a poor thing, these days. You’re ignoring the third group, which pays so little attention to anything but their little diversions that no important information has reached them in years, and their main source of news is by scratching memes and sniffing them.
-which pays so little attention to anything but their little diversions that no important information has reached them in years-
Yeah well now we’re trying the “literally let them eat heaps of cake” theory of population control.
So, basically, he confirms the facts in the book? Good.
Is this really stuff we don’t know already? Hasn’t Trump publicly praised Putin for years now?
Provable facts are even better
No one comes between Donnie and his Daddy Vlad.
