In Trump’s version of the Mueller report, he actually “rebuffed” Russia, facts notwithstanding: "It said no collusion and no obstruction and no nothing. And in fact it said we actually rebuffed your friends from Russia, that we actually pushed them back, we rebuffed them.” — PolitiTweet.org

Trump told aides to deny that his polling showed him trailing Biden in many states he needs to win. And when the polling leaked, Trump instructed aides to say publicly that other data showed him doing well. ⁦@anniekarni⁩ ⁦@maggieNYT⁩ https://t.co/MSYY8gEFwr — PolitiTweet.org

One of the most fun stories I got to cover in Moscow was the flight of the first space tourist, an American investor named Dennis Tito who paid Russia $20 million for a trip to the space station in 2001. NASA was unhappy. Now it's changed its tune. https://t.co/US87GBKQrV… — PolitiTweet.org

Reupping this from @NYTimesPR in case there's any confusion: "We are confident in our reporting, and as with so many other occasions, our stories stand up over time and the president's denials of them do not. Calling the press the enemy is undemocratic and dangerous." — PolitiTweet.org

Nine days in spring offered a case study in Trump’s approach: When the goal seems frustratingly out of reach, threaten drastic action, set a deadline, demand concessions, cut a deal — real or imagined — avert the dire outcome and declare victory. https://t.co/2pfrYHCJ5Y — PolitiTweet.org
