ANI  |  Washington D.C. [U.S.A.] 

The United States President, Donald Trump tagged a random user while attacking the media, and called the and The New York Times anti-Trump.

Trump tagged a user @WaPo, who has not tweeted since March 2008.

"was always anti-Trump.The Networks were always anti-Trump hence,Fake News, @nytimes(apologized) & @WaPo were anti-Trump. Collusion?" Trump tweeted.

It seems that Trump may have wanted to tag the Washington Post's twitter handle- @washingtonpost- but ended up tagging a similar looking handle @WaPo while attacking the US media.

Trump accused and The New York Times for conspiring against him.

Terming the two anit-Trump, he said they have been doing fake news against his administration.

"..But the people were Pro-Trump! Virtually no President has accomplished what we have accomplished in the first 9 months-and economy roaring" Trump said in a second tweet.

Earlier in August, Trump had branded the news media as 'fake', 'worst' and the 'most dishonest' one, ahead of his return to Washington after a 17-day working vacation.
