And it wasn't Trumps , you forgot to mention that as well Troller.
Listen, I once went to Vagas for a holiday so I know all about US politics.
Not sure why you're in denial about this. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks, then it's a duck - whatever you call it. The topic being discussed was a briefing of selected, friendly-to-the-regime press people that certain more-critical-of-the-regime press people were not permitted to attend, held by the Press representative of the President. Did that happen or not?
Well I don't suppose his fingerprints will be found on it, but he runs Breitbart News who were influential in spreading the story.
From wiki......
Breitbart News Network (known commonly as Breitbart News, Breitbart or Breitbart.com) is a far-right[a] American news, opinion and commentary[10][11] website founded in 2007 by Andrew Breitbart. Breitbart News has published a number of falsehoods and conspiracy theories, as well as intentionally misleading stories.[20]
Conceived by the conservative Andrew Breitbart during a visit to Israel in summer 2007 as a website "that would be unapologetically pro-freedom and pro-Israel"[21] — Breitbart News later aligned with the European populist right and American alt-right under the management of former executive chairman Steve Bannon.[22][23] The New York Times describes Breitbart News as an organization with "ideologically driven journalists" that generates controversy "over material that has been called misogynist, xenophobic and racist".[24]
These people peddle actual Fake News, but were no doubt invited to the briefing that the BBC and CNN were excluded from.
Stoll, this has nothing to do with anything. You made a statement and Ellers asked for proof and you have none. End of story. You obviously dont like Trump and I'm not enamored with him either but you make up stories in your mind and post them without any proof or substance. Are you a relation of Fingy?
I refer you to Dipper's duck-related post.
........and I think I'll take this advice
Troller, why cant you just say you made a mistake?
Why is it impossible for some people to post something that's just wrong on here and refuse to admit they made a mistake. Its no big deal, we all do it at some time in our life. If you say you were wrong people look at you much better than if you fudge and squirm.

Troller stills owes me an answer from about 6 weeks ago. in fact I have actually forgotten what is was about.
Sir John Major has been showing why he is the only decent Prime Minister we've had in the last 35 years, by talking a lot of sense tonight.
Especially with his comments on Northern Ireland and our future dependence on a new unreliable and insular US president.
I suspect the papers will concentrate on him saying the British people are being sold unreasonable prospects with brexit - that's probably up for debate, but he's spot on about how Brexit cheerleaders have disregarded those that voted Remain.
As if to show his point, that upper class twit Rees-Mogg then pops up with a bitter little attack on him for supporting Remain, rather than answer his points.
Yes I know Major shagged edwina currie, but compared to Blair or Thatcher they ****ed the country.
