A Thursday press conference with Donald Trump turned into an impromptu hearing, as questions from the media drifted to Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's claims that the president threw a "Temper tantrum" when he called off a Wednesday meeting.
Several top aides stepped forward during the presser to recount their own version of the events, with all of them supporting President Trump's version that he was "Calm" while refuting claims by Pelosi and House Majority Leader Chuck Schumer that he was "Yelling," "Banging his fist on the table" or "Throwing a temper tantrum."
Tensions between Trump and establishment Democrats exploded Wednesday on Capitol Hill after the president abruptly walked out of an infrastructure meeting at the White House with Pelosi and Schumer - the two most powerful Dems in Congress.
Those claims from the speaker came following a morning meeting with House Democrats, at which Pelosi reportedly declared that President Trump "Wants to be impeached," according to The Washington Post.
Pelosi and Schumer's version may not be the real story of what transpired, as was revealed Thursday, not only by Trump himself, but by several of his top aides who were present at the abruptly canceled meeting.
In a letter to her House colleagues, Nancy Pelosi said: "President Trump had a temper tantrum for us all to see." This is not true.
Trump called upon deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley, who was at the second meeting Trump had referred to.
