Trump Whines About ‘Failing New York Times’ and ‘Hillary Flunky’ Maggie Haberman: She ‘Knows Nothing’
Over the weekend, the New York Times reported that President Donald Trump is in discussions to bring on an impeachment lawyer to his Russia probe legal team. The story also reported that Trump has been looking to shake up his legal team so he can change his approach to the special counsel inquiry.

He also went off on NYT reporter Maggie Haberman, calling her a “Hillary flunky” while insisting she “knows nothing” about him and “is not given access.”
