The President himself sued The Journal for billions, and his attorneys insisted, in court filings, that this letter was, quote, Nonexistent, and that No authentic letter or drawing exists. The President's son, Eric Trump, echoed that sentiment, just tonight."
"My father does not sketch out cartoon drawings. It's no different than the Russian hoax.
