Donald Trump Mocks CNN Reporter: ‘Tell That to Your Fake Friends’ (Video)
President Trump slammed the American media during a press conference in Charlevoix, Canada on Saturday.
He described many people in the establishment media as “very dishonest.”
A CNN reporter asked President Trump a very pointed question on US allies and a “friendlier” Kim Jong-Un.
President Trump pounced on the CNN reporter.
CNN reporter: As you are heading into these G7 talks there’s a sense that America’s closest allies are frustrated with you and angry with you and that you are angry with them and that you are leaving here to go meet with more friendlier talks with Kim Jong-Un in Singapore and I was wondering if you view it the same way? And do you view the US alliance system shifting under your presidency?
President Trump: Who are you without of curiosity?
CNN reporter: CNN.
President Trump: I figured, fake news CNN. The worst. But, I had no idea you’re with CNN. After the question I was just curious who you’re with. You’re with CNN.
Ouch!
Here’s the exchange:
When you consider yourself a news source, but consistently attack a sitting President’s administration and especially his family all because your candidate lost, you absolutely deserve to be on this President’s shitlist.
Reports show that anywhere from 70% to 90% of the coverage of Donald Trump by the media is negative. Add to that that they frequently take him out of context or hold him up to ridicule. Then, when Trump fights back against a deliberate effort to impugn him, they scream that he is attacking the “free press” and journalists. Actually, Trump is striking back against political activists and propagandists.
