President Trump on Thursday sought to distance himself from a reported decision by military officials to obscure the USS John S. McCain during his trip to Japan, calling the report « an exaggeration, or even fake news. »
« The Navy put out a disclaimer on the McCain story, » Trump said in a tweet Thursday evening. « Looks like the story was an exaggeration, or even Fake News – but why not, everything else is! »
Trump earlier Thursday defended the reported decision, saying whoever made the order was « well-meaning.
