Trump Kicks Off Debate Night Live Tweets by Bashing ‘Dumb’ CNN and Praising Fox News

Donald Trump is live-tweeting tonight’s debate, and he started out by ripping CNN. Again:

Wow, @CNN is so negative. Their panel is a joke, biased and very dumb. I'm turning to @FoxNews where we get a fair shake! Mike will do great

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 5, 2016

Just for fun, here are all the tweets from the past few months in which Trump said CNN is unwatchable and people shouldn’t watch it:

Wow, @CNN is really working hard to make me look as bad as possible. Very unprofessional. Hurting in ratings – bad television!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 14, 2016

A political commentator for @cnn, which I no longer watch, said "Trump showed some weakness in the Repub Primaries." I set all-time record!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 16, 2016

I can't believe that @CNN would allow the very nice Jeffrey Lord to be savaged by a panel of seven Trump haters. 7 to 1 – Don't watch CNN!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 18, 2016

.@CNN is so negative, getting even worse as I get closer. Just had two anti-Trump losers with zero rebuttal from my team. Turning off!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 21, 2016

The @CNN panels are so one sided, almost all against Trump. @FoxNews is so much better and the ratings are much higher. Don't watch CNN!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 24, 2016

Wow, did you see how badly @CNN (Clinton News Network) is doing in the ratings. With people like @donlemon, who could expect any more?

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 30, 2016

Wow, just saw the really bad @CNN ratings. People don't want to watch bad product that only builds up Crooked Hillary.
