WaPo: Trump hung up when asked about spokesman

By Jesse Byrnes

Hours after denying a Washington Post report that said he masqueraded as his own spokesman decades ago, Donald Trump on Friday reportedly hung up on reporters from the newspaper asking questions about the controversy.

Post reporters were 44 minutes into a phone interview Friday afternoon discussing the presumptive GOP presiedntial nominee’s finances when they asked Trump if he ever employed a spokesman by the name of John Miller.

"The phone went silent, then dead," the newspaper reported. "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.'"

The story published on Friday included audio of a man with a similar tone and cadence to Trump claiming to be John Miller, a spokesman for the businessman, during a 1991 phone call with People magazine reporter Sue Carswell.

"It's absolutely Donald Trump," Carswell, who left the magazine in 1994 and has written for other outlets recently, told NBC News in a preview of an interview set to air Friday night on "NBC Nightly News," adding there's "no doubt in my mind" that it was Trump whom she spoke with during the 1991 interview.

....Yet everyone is asking why Cruz, Rubio, and Kasich why they have not given up on their own delegates and fully supported Trump.


This is only the beginning, the soft ball stuff.
It won't get any better for Trump, I believe.
This is going to get real interesting between now and November.

From the Washington Post:
Quote
In 1990, Trump testified in a court case that “I believe on occasion I used that name.”


I hear that Trump is trying to spin the 1991 thing as a prank, when he's been caught and admitted it before then, even as far back as 1980.

Are we sure that when the reporter called back and the secretary answered that it wasn't "Joan" Miller?

Of course, Hillary has millions paid for online trolls and the Uber Democrats are going all out with media smears to control what $neverTrump thinks. If $nevertrump had common sense it would look at the track record of the sources feeding it, who is funding them and setting their agenda and treat them like the Presstitutes and paid trolls they are.

But hate makes $neverTrump blind and oh so gullible to this crap.

Trying to pretend that Trump doesn't have some serious psychological issues has become sort of impossible.
