Thin skin - CNN and President Trump's rally

| No Comments

I had written about the rally yesterday - this is where President Trump announced that he is running for prez in 2020. There were over 100,000 ticket requests for a venue that seats 20,000. People were waiting in line 48 hours before it opened. At one time, the crowd got a bit rowdy regarding their opinion about CNN - from the Media Research Group:

Thin Skin: CNN Cuts Away from Trump Rally After Crowd Chants ‘CNN Sucks!’
The liberal media often suggest President Trump was the one with thin skin; just look at how they lionize Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s jabs at him. But during Tuesday’s Anderson Cooper 360, CNN proved themselves to be the ones with thinner skin when they cut away from Trump’s 2020 campaign launch rally in Orlando, Florida after the crowd started chanting “CNN sucks”.

Two pull-quotes:

"Our radical Democrat opponents are driven by hatred, prejudice and rage," Trump adds. "They want to destroy you and they want to destroy our country as we know it. Not acceptable. It's not going to happen."

"They went after my family, my business, my finances, my employees, almost everyone that I have ever known or worked with, but they are really going after you. That's what it is all about. It's not about us. It's about you. They tried to erase your vote, erase your legacy of the greatest campaign and the greatest election probably in the history of our country."
