President Donald Trump said a planned meeting with Rep. Elijah Cummings has been called off because of partisan politics — but the prominent Congressional Black Caucus member and top Democrat on the House oversight panel denied it.

“He was probably told, ‘Don’t meet with Trump, it’s bad politics,’ and that’s part of the problem in this country,” Trump said during a marathon press conference at the White House.

Cummings' office quickly disputed that characterization and said a fuller statement would be forthcoming.

Cummings told POLITICO last week that he intended to meet with Trump to discuss prescription drug prices. And he later told reporters he intended to raise the issue of voter suppression in minority communities. But the meeting was never officially scheduled.

"He was probably told, ‘Don’t meet with Trump, it’s bad politics,’ and that’s part of the problem in this country,” Trump said..."

This a-hole just says what ever comes to his tiny orange 'brain' without realizing what he's doing. He is to stupid to throw lies like that out to the public.
