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.

      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.
