Trump Tears Up Twitter With Early Morning Tirade, Slaps ‘Failing New York Times’

President Trump went on a Twitter tirade on Wednesday, blasting the “Failing New York Times” for “another phony story” and blaming increasingly belligerent rhetoric with Russia on the special counsel probe by Robert Mueller.

“The Failing New York Times wrote another phony story. It was political pundit Doug Schoen, not a Ukrainian businessman, who asked me to do a short speech by phone (Skype), hosted by Doug, in Ukraine. I was very positive about Ukraine-another negative to the Fake Russia C story!” Trump tweeted.

Mueller’s team is reportedly probing a payment from a Ukrainian steel magnate to Trump’s charitable foundation in exchange for a video appearance by Trump. “Investigators subpoenaed the Trump Organization this year for an array of records about business with foreign nationals. In response, the company handed over documents about a $150,000 donation that the Ukrainian billionaire, Victor Pinchuk, made in September 2015 to the Donald J. Trump Foundation in exchange for a 20-minute appearance by Mr. Trump that month through a video link to a conference in Kiev,” the Times said.

The Times reported the event “was set up by Doug Schoen.”

Trump also took issue with reports that the White House is in chaos, saying all is “calm.”

“So much Fake News about what is going on in the White House. Very calm and calculated with a big focus on open and fair trade with China, the coming North Korea meeting and, of course, the vicious gas attack in Syria. Feels great to have Bolton & Larry K on board. I (we) are ….doing things that nobody thought possible, despite the never ending and corrupt Russia Investigation, which takes tremendous time and focus. No Collusion or Obstruction (other than I fight back), so now they do the Unthinkable, and RAID a lawyers office for information! BAD!”

Trump warned Russia: “Russia vows to shoot down any and all missiles fired at Syria. Get ready Russia, because they will be coming, nice and new and ‘smart!’ ” Then he blamed the Mueller probe for “bad blood.”

“Much of the bad blood with Russia is caused by the Fake & Corrupt Russia Investigation, headed up by the all Democrat loyalists, or people that worked for Obama. Mueller is most conflicted of all (except Rosenstein who signed FISA & Comey letter). No Collusion, so they go crazy!”

So get up early tomorrow to catch what Trump says next!
