Sarah Sanders Is Sick And Tired Of Fake News… So She Posts Audio of Trump’s Actual Conversation With WSJ
On Sunday, The Wall Street Journal misquoted President Trump words from an interview they conducted with him.
The Journal transcribed the audio of Trump saying that he has a good relationship with the leader of North Korea.
Almost immediately, President Trump denied this. On Twitter, he wrote: “The Wall Street Journal stated falsely that I said to them ‘I have a good relationship with Kim Jong Un’ (of N. Korea). Obviously, I didn’t say that.”
He added: “I said ‘I’d have a good relationship with Kim Jong Un,’ a big difference. Fortunately, we now record conversations with reporters…”

…and they knew exactly what I said and meant. They just wanted a story. FAKE NEWS!

Addressing questions as to why the White House waited so long to raise their objections, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said they first contacted the Journal on Friday to request a correction when the paper published the full transcript.
“We first contacted the WSJ Friday morning and asked for a correction,” Sanders wrote on Twitter. “They repeatedly refused to issue one despite clear audio evidence they’d misquoted POTUS.”
Well now, Sanders is weighing in — and she has audio.
Sanders first posted a graphic slamming the newspaper:

She then hit hard and posted an audio showing WSJ misquoting @POTUS:

But the Journal is standing behind its transcript of the interview.
We have reviewed the audio from our interview with President Trump, as well as the transcript provided by an external service, and stand by what we reported. Here is audio of the portion the White House disputes. https://t.co/eWcmiHrXJg pic.twitter.com/bx9fGFWaPw

Many Twitter users call them out, saying they heard Trump say “I’d” in their audio after listening several times:
You know, I honestly listened to this audio without the intention of defending the White House, but I think they're right. It sounds to me like Trump said "I'd," not "I." https://t.co/bcaIETc3cz

To my ear it sounds like “I’d” https://t.co/ZNswTLXuCE

He is definitely saying “I’d probably have a good relationship.”

Hate to weigh in on such a ridiculous controversy but it only took me two listens to hear that he pretty clearly said “I’d.” And no one has ever accused me of being sympathetic toward Trump in any manner. https://t.co/63qUozWbNT

Wrong. @WhiteHouse is right. He says "I'd" not "I." Second, intonation increases when he references Kim, indicating a difference from the other two in what he's about to say. Third, he then says "I would –"…. https://t.co/vQ6cwDCcKn

It’s clear as day he said: “I’d”. And the amazing thing is that the WSJ put out a statement standing by their quote. Even when caught lying they still won’t retract.
Unfortunately, this is what mainstream media has been doing all along, flipping Trump’s words around to fit their narrative. When Trump wanted to build a wall, or vet foreigners coming into this country, he got labeled a racist by the media, and CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, and Hollywood have been running with that ever since.
Fake News does exist and that is the real danger to this country and the rest of the world.
