by Tommy Christopher | 12:13 pm, May 15th, 2016
Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is being plagued by a pair of stories that delve into his past this weekend, and while Trump is fighting one such story on the social media front, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus is floating a not-so-vast conspiracy theory to defend Trump. In separate interviews Sunday morning, Priebus suggested that the story of Trump impersonating his own PR flack was “planted by someone,” and that the New York Times story containing a raft of allegations Trump mistreated women constitute a “classic Clinton operation.”
Priebus made the former claim in an interview with Fox News Sunday‘s Chris Wallace, while on This Week, he told Jonathan Karl that the Times story was “Hillary Clinton — it’s a classic Clinton operation,” and added that “Now suddenly these things are coming out.”
