Despite video evidence to the contrary, Donald Trump insisted he was not booed at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night while attending a UFC fight.
The president, who recently announced he was turning his back on New York City to become a legal resident of Florida, was greeted inside and out of the Garden with raucous chants and booing which the president labeled "Fake News!" in a tweet that can be seen below.
Twitter users were quick to fire right back, with one commenter chiding him, "You got booed, son."
And then it was on -- see below:
