Trump says he hasn't read whistleblower complaint, then says "everybody's read it, they laugh at it"

Jennifer Hayden
@Scout_Finch

In one breath Trump says he has not read the whistleblower complaint and in the next breath:

"I just, I tell you, everybody's read it, they laugh at it."

Earlier he said "he is a partisan" about the whistleblower.

Did Trump see the complaint? How does he know it is a "he"?

completely lost it. This performance is "worse" than about anything we have seen. He is grasping at anything and everything he can. The more he talks about it being "fake" or "partisan", the more people will start asking "then why are you hiding it?".

you will be out of the USA's government for good.

Probably all of congress Republicans and administration have seen the complaint. And who ever it is, they take it quite seriously. It's one of them.

last night. He contradicted his previous statements. They think they are so smart but they fuck themselves constantly. Keep talking Donny...another presser any minute.

was Rudy Giuliani, I'd opt to represent myself and hope for the best. Giuliani could get a client the death penalty for jaywalking.

Does that include Congress?

Cause they say they haven’t seen it. I could use a good laugh, how about you let all of America read it?
