Donald Trump Tried To Make A Big Deal Out Of Being Cut Off By TV Station

During a recent address to military personnel at Marine Corps Base Quantico, President Donald Trump asserted that CNN shut off their camera moments after he labeled them “Fake news CNN.” His remarks drew a contrasting response from the network and observers alike. Trump, gesturing towards the cameras, claimed, “Oh, their camera just went off! Look. Every time I mention them, they turn their camera off.” Following his speech on September 30, pro-Trump voices rallied online, expressing disdain for CNN and applauding Trump’s statements. However, criticism emerged swiftly, with some highlighting inconsistencies in Trump’s claim about the camera shutting off. CNN’s fact-checker affirmed that the network broadcast the entire speech live, dismantling Trump’s narrative. Trump’s 72-minute discourse included controversial comments about military policies and former President Biden, further fueling debates about his rhetoric. Attacks on CNN as "fake news" have become a recurring theme throughout Trump’s political discourse, provoking ongoing contention.
