Trump to Reporter: 'Chosen One' Comment Was Sarcasm, That Question Was "Fake News"

President Trump took questions from reporters Friday night before departing for the G7:

REPORTER: What did you mean yesterday when you said you were the “chosen one”? Did you mean it in a biblical sense?

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Let me tell you, you know exactly what I meant. It was sarcasm. It was joking. We were all smiling. And a question like that is just fake news. You’re just a faker.
