It was none of that. It was a fluke engineered by the russian government because they are evil and they hate our values. So far there is not been much proof that any of this actually happened or any proof at all, but we did loon tunick learned tonight that the President Trump sat with blood where prudent at

the important element there is no police the important element there is no police action. they have looked at the allegation, effectively as it first surfaced in the sun, as it was passed first surfaced in the sun, as it was passed to first surfaced in the sun, as it was passed to the bbc and then passed from the passed to the bbc and then passed from the bbc to detectives and decided from the bbc to detectives and decided there is nothing for them to do. decided there is nothing for them to do there decided there is nothing for them to do there is decided there is nothing for them to do. there is no criminal allegation there do. there is no criminal allegation there it do. there is no criminal allegation there it is do. there is no criminal allegation there. it is quite an extraordinary ntonient there. it is quite an extraordinary moment that we have this situation where moment that we have this situation where this moment that we have this situation where this
