Livid Donald Trump asks: 'Are we living in Nazi Germany?'
Donald Trump is not having a good morning. The president-elect has been on a caps lock-fueled roll since BuzzFeed News published an uncorroborated intelligence report Tuesday night alleging Trump schemed to win the election with the abundant help of Russia and claiming Russia may have '"embarrassing" material with which to blackmail him.
"I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH RUSSIA," Trump clarified on Twitter on Wednesday. "NO DEAL, NO LOANS, NO NOTHING!" Trump added: "Russia just said the unverified report paid for by political opponents is 'A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FABRICATION, UTTER NONSENSE.' Very unfair!"
