US President Donald Trump’s adviser has dismissed reports about ongoing investigations into possible links between the Trump campaign and Russia as mere “propaganda”.
“It’s not news, it’s not reporting, it’s just propaganda,” said Sebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to President Trump and his adviser on counter-terrorism, according to The Hill on Saturday.
Gorka, who was speaking on Fow News on Friday, slammed mainstream media for trying to create distraction from Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia.
He claimed, according to Fox News insider, that mainstream media’s “efforts won’t stop the president from doing what’s best for the American people”.
“We have a mission that we had approved by the American people, and we’re executing it,” he said, as quoted by the site.
The Trump administration has openly been at loggerheads with mainstream media.
