Read Trumps full statement:
Now that he is on his own, Steve is learning that winning isnt as easy as I make it look. Steve had very little to do with our historic victory, which was delivered by the forgotten men and women of this country. Yet Steve had everything to do with the loss of a Senate seat in Alabama held for more than thirty years by Republicans. Steve doesnt represent my basehes only in it for himself.
Steve pretends to be at war with the media, which he calls the opposition party, yet he spent his time at the White House leaking false information to the media to make himself seem far more important than he was. It is the only thing he does well. Steve was rarely in a one-on-one meeting with me and only pretends to have had influence to fool a few people with no access and no clue, whom he helped write phony books.
We have many great Republican members of Congress and candidates who are very supportive of the Make America Great Again agenda. Like me, they love the United States of America and are helping to finally take our country back and build it up, rather than simply seeking to burn it all down.

(54,002 posts)While it looks like an impressive "take down", it was clearly written by others in in the "mis"administration. Any sane person who has seen this POS speak or write will instantly know, this is not of his hand!

(54,002 posts)That POS can't string two words together much less write a blistering retort. If it had "he's a doo-doo head!" or "He's bigly jealous!", then I would have believed he wrote it.
