Trump to Lou Dobbs: ‘What Could Be More Fake Than CBS and NBC and ABC and CNN?’
At the end of his interview that aired on Fox Business this evening, President Donald Trump was given the opportunity to lash out at his favorite target — the mainstream media. And, yes, there was an abundant use of the word “fake.”
Host Lou Dobbs let Trump know that while he was one of the most reviled men to hold the post of presidency according to the left, he was also “one of the most loved and respected.” Dobbs wanted to know how Trump felt about that, leading to a trademarked anti-media rant from the president.
“I thought it was treated unfairly by the press during the campaign,” Trump exclaimed. “I thought the good news is now they will start treating me well. But they got much worse. They put on stories on CNN and NBC and CBS and ABC, and the MSNBC which is ridiculous. They put on stories that are so false, they have so-called sources that in my opinion don’t exist.”
He continued, “What could be more fake than CBS and NBC and ABC and CNN when you look at some of these stories and look at the amount of negative. I know a good story from the bad story. But when you have a good story and they make it bad.”
The president finished up the conversation by informing Dobbs that the Fox Biz host, along with others at Fox News like Sean Hannity, have treated him “fairly.”
