President Trump said Monday that he “never worked for Russia” and is insulted to even be asked that question.

“I never worked for Russia. And you know that answer better than anybody. I never worked for Russia,” Trump told reporters before departing for New Orleans to speak at a farmer’s convention Monday morning. “Not only did I never work for Russia, I think it’s a disgrace that you even asked that question because it’s a whole big fat hoax. It’s just a hoax.”
