Trump Denies Slamming Table, Having Tantrum in Shutdown Meeting

President Donald Trump denied slamming a table and storming out of shutdown negotiations with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, accusing Schumer of fabricating the account.

Schumer “told his favorite lie when he used his standard sound bite that I ‘slammed the table & walked out of the room. He had a temper tantrum,”’ Trump said Thursday on Twitter. “I politely said bye-bye and left, no slamming!”
