Trump Goes After CNN and MSNBC: ‘Two Really Dishonest Newscasters, But the Public Is Wise!’

President Trump is tweeting tonight and going after the media once again.

This time, while sharing a meme attacking the press…

So true, thank you! https://t.co/9TTXlfokYz

…he also went after CNN and MSNBC following reports they covered an anti-Trump rally that was promoted by Russian bots:

Bad ratings @CNN & @MSNBC got scammed when they covered the anti-Trump Russia rally wall-to-wall. They probably knew it was Fake News but, because it was a rally against me, they pushed it hard anyway. Two really dishonest newscasters, but the public is wise!

But then the President ended by calling for better background checks:

Whether we are Republican or Democrat, we must now focus on strengthening Background Checks!
