Six minutes into the speech. The poor little babies got their feelings hurt


quote:


CNN cut away from its coverage of President Trump's 2020 reelection campaign kickoff Tuesday night shortly after he spurred the crowd to chant "CNN sucks."

Just minutes into his rally speech Tuesday at the Amway Center in Orlando, Fla., Trump referred to his 2015 campaign announcement as "a defining moment in America history," adding to "ask them right there" as he pointed to the media covering the event.

The crowd then chanted "CNN sucks," a line that has become a staple at Trump campaign events, before Trump said that "there is a lot of fake news back there" and that the "amount of press we have tonight reminds me of the Academy Awards before it went political and their ratings went down the tubes."

CNN then cut away from its live broadcast roughly six minutes in.

What started the chant? Everyone turned around like it was a protester or a sign.

Hopefully next time he will talk about the media within the first minute of the rally.

Man y'all surely do watch a lot of CNN and help drive their ratings considering you don't agree with their views.

I can't say that I blame them, they're trying to shield the last hundred thousand viewers they draw, from hearing the truth. It's their switch and they can turn it off if they want to.

When news makes itself news then gets mad how that turns out.

Trump: 2016 was not merely another four year election, it was a defining moment in american history, ask them right there (points to press)
Crowd: *CNN sucks chant*
Trump: BTW that is a lot of fake news back there.. This was our chance to reclaim our government from a permanent political class that enriched itselves at your expense.. We did not transfer power from one party to another but back to you, the citizens of america
Crowd:

Not exactly true.

There's a little thing about FCC rules, regs, and licensing regarding equal time for political opposition during campaigning. 6 minutes is now all they can devote to any opposition candidate rallies or FCC could yank their broadcasting license.

As he did so he did the circle with thumb and index finger and the other three fingers pointing up, you know which used to be the OK sign. Lets see how quickly the media declares Trump was virtue signalling to his racist base.
