Typical fake news tactic. Cherry pick part of a conversation in order to deliberately mislead people as to it's meaning.
As WoPo put it:
Quote:
Neither are false quote but both are taken terribly out of context. In the full report Trump is making these comments while saying that it will make getting his agenda done much harder. The full quote is below.
We are being manipulated daily.
According to notes written by Hunt , when Sessions told the President that a Special Counsel had been appointed, the President slumped back in his chair and said, “Oh my God. This is terrible. This is the end of my Presidency. I’m *****”
The President became angry and lambasted the Attorney General for his decision to recuse from the investigation , stating, “How could you let this happen, Jeff?”
The President said the position of Attorney General was his most important appointment and that Sessions had ” let [him] down ,” contrasting him to Eric Holder and Robert Kennedy.
Sessions recalled that the President said to him, “you were supposed to protect me,” or words to that effect. The President returned to the consequences of the appointment and said, “Everyone tells me if you get one of these independent counsels it ruin s your presidency . It takes years and years and I won ‘t be able to do anything. This is the worst thing that ever happened to me.”

They aren't fooling anyone except perhaps some foreigners and the party faithful. The rest of the American people see it for the crap that it is so I for one hope the Dems and their media friends keep it up. It only makes Trumps reelection a surer thing.
