UK Prime Minister Burnham on Aug. 18 confirmed he exchanged messages with
someone impersonating White House chief of staff Susie Wyles. Burnham said the
exchanges were very brief, contained no sensitive material, and he reported the
incident promptly. US President Trump told reporters on Aug. 17 he viewed it as
a "communication misunderstanding" and said he has had several "good talks" with
Burnham.
