Trump Can’t Resist Attacking MSNBC For ‘Horrible Technical Breakdown’: They ‘Should Be Ashamed’

President Donald Trump weighed in on the first Democratic presidential debate by attacking MSNBC for a technical glitch that ground the event to a minutes-long halt.

Trump was relatively silent for the first half of the debate, contributing just one comment in the first hour: “BORING!”

But when the second hour of the debate kicked off with a persistent audio glitch that forced the network to cut to a commercial, Trump pounced, tweeting, “@NBCNews and @MSNBC should be ashamed of themselves for having such a horrible technical breakdown in the middle of the debate. Truly unprofessional and only worthy of a FAKE NEWS Organization, which they are!”
