Fake News Alert: There's no evidence Theresa May made a joke about Trump's hand size

MSM, do your thing.

We’re starting to see some discussion over this story in the Telegraph alleging that British PM Theresa May joked about the size of Donald Trump’s hands at a private fundraiser.

But when you click to see exactly what May was reported to have said, there’s no evidence that she was making a hand-size joke:

Thank you very much for that wonderful reception.

I don’t think I have received such a big hand since I walked down the colonnade at the White House.

She is more likely referencing the now infamous holding-hands incident during May’s visit to the White House last month:

I don't think May says here what Twitter thinks she's saying. Joke seems about brouhaha over holding hands—not size. https://t.co/PpoIEBQGkd pic.twitter.com/oMjsbECDG4

However, it’s the d*ck joke interpretation that’s getting the most play:
