CNN devotes two segments to Trump's "executive privilege"


Posted: May 15, 2017

CNN devoted not one, but two segments on how President Trump got two scoops of ice cream while his dinner guests only got one as the network tried to pass off a “scoop” about the president’s eating habits as news. In a segment titled, “Two scoops for Trump,” CNN’s Jeanne Moos talks about Trump’s “executive privilege” for receiving two scoops of ice cream while the three TIME magazine correspondents he had dinner with only got one. “At the dessert course, he gets two scoops of vanilla ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, instead of the single scoop for everyone else,” TIME’s Michael Scherer and Zeke Miller wrote. But this was not the only segment CNN devoted to the subject. CNN also gave airtime to an interview between CNN’s Brooke Baldwin and CNN political reporter and editor-at-large Chris Cillizza with the headline, “President Gets Two Scoops of Ice Cream, Everyone Else One.” “The President gets two scoops, you know, everyone around the table gets one, and no word if there were sprinkles,” Baldwin commented. “This explains a lot,” the Atlantic’s David Frum wrote on Twitter, to which Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post responded saying that Trump is “a man unable to restrain his urges.” Fox News host Sean Hannity mocked CNN for its “hard-hitting coverage.” ;

I hope it was not vanilla ice cream. Then they - would call Pres. Trump a racist.

They never mentioned the irony of the man who’s married to that acclaimed bodybuilding and fitness champion Michelle Obama, scarfing down hotdogs and Kobe beef! Hmmm, this sounds suspiciously like partisan propaganda rather than true journalism!

To the leftist conservatism is the new word for - racism since that doesn't work

I saw it but thought it was a stupid story and - wouldn't post it

I just don't see why anyone would, let alone 3 times.
It was a stupid story but CNN loves to - find fault with Trump and they ran it

For those who love CNN look what they think of their viewers by making this story a Big Deal. And again, it is all designed to make Trump look bad so CNN is appealing to Trump haters and not very smart people.
He looked bad to me for a long time, I didn't - need CNN to point it out.

Don't insinuate that I'm not smart because I don't like Trump. I find it less smart to post articles like this.
People who watch CNN and believe them - aren't smart enough to see a bigger picture

CNN reports things out of context, do sound bites and the Trump picture is distorted. The people who watch CNN are looking for reasons to hate and CNN by hook or crook will feed your desire to hate Trump.

I mean HOW DARE Trump get 2 scoops of ice cream while guests only get 1 scoop. Makes CNN viewers blood boil and those viewers will keep watching CNN for more reasons to hate Trump. It's all about ratings. CNN (and MSNBC) are preaching to the choir and the choir wants more, more, more reasons to hate Trump.

That's because it should embarass a leftie - that their almighty FAKE NEWS MSMs

are so childish and trite; nahhh, you cannot embarrass a leftie unless you mention God in their presence.

The White House staff knows what to serve Trump - If guests wanted another scoop they would get it

This is much ado about nothing which MSM makes of all things Trump. They try to make Trump look a selfish fool, but CNN looked the fool.
