Donald Trump has threatened to strip reporters of "Noble prizes" and sue media outlets over their reporting that confirmed Russian interference in US elections and within the president's 2016 campaign.
In a furious, misspelled Twitter rant on Sunday, the president lashed out at The New York Times over what he called a "phony story" about his daily routine. The Times story claimed the president often doesn't arrive in the Oval Office until noon, after spending mornings watching Fox News, CNN and MSNBC.
He said: "I work from early in the morning until late at night, haven't left the White House in many months (except to launch Hospital Ship Comfort) in order to take care of Trade Deals, Military Rebuilding etc., and then I read a phony story in the failing @nytimes about my work ... schedule and eating habits, written by a third rate reporter who knows nothing about me.
He added: "I will often be in the Oval Office late into the night & see that I am angrily eating a hamberger & Diet Coke in my bedroom. People with me are always stunned. Anything to demean!"
