President Trump just called out the fake news media for lying about Vladimir Putin’s meeting with his Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, asking “Why can’t they be honest, just for once?”

Trump said they lied about Putin keeping Witkoff waiting for nine hours, which he says is absolutely not true. “There was no wait whatsoever,” Trump added.

Here’s his full post:

The Fake News, as usual, is at it again! Why can’t they be honest, just for once? Last night I read that President Vladimir Putin of Russia kept my Highly Respected Ambassador and Special Envoy, Steve Witkoff, waiting for over nine hours when, in fact, there was no wait whatsoever. Other meetings with other Representatives of Russia did take place and, obviously, they took some time, but they were very productive. From there, things went quickly and efficiently, and all signs seem to be, hopefully, very good! In conclusion, there was no nine hour wait, or any wait at all! The only reason they made up that story is to try and DEMEAN, because they are sick degenerates, that have to start reporting the News correctly. This is why they have lost their ratings, their audience, and respect. Thank you for your attention to this matter and, GOD BLESS AMERICA!

DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
