On Monday, President Donald Trump will travel to the United Kingdom for an official state visit, but controversy is already ensuing. In a taped interview with British newspaper The Sun, Trump called Meghan Markle «nasty» for comments she made about his run for president in 2016. On Twitter, Trump denied ever describing the American-born duchess in such terms, although audio footage indicates that he described her remarks that way.
«I never called Meghan Markle ‘nasty,'» President Trump tweeted Sunday morning. «Made up by the Fake News Media, and they got caught cold! Will @CNN, @nytimes and others apologize? Doubt it!»
In the Sun interview clip, which has now circulated widely on Twitter, a reporter asked Trump whether he was disappointed that he won’t be seeing Markle during his trip, given that she is on maternity leave. The reporter notes that Markle «said she would move to Canada» if Trump were elected.
