This weekend our Tweeter in Chief aka POTUS took to his favorite social media platform to unleash his disdain for CNN, which he now refers to as #FNN or #FraudNewsNetwork. Though President Trump is certainly no newbie to using his 140 characters to trash talk main stream media this tweet literally featured a .gif of him violently bodyslamming a logo of the network.
The catalyst for this latest tirade could be former State Representative turned CNN regular, Bakari Sellers. Saturday evening at 8:53pm Sellers, who has been openly (and rightfully) critical of our thin-skinned commander, fired a tweet calling Trump “insane” …
The President of the United States is insane.

…and the next morning Trump unleashed the WWF style .gif featured below.

Reports from DC have it that Sellers has maintained a position on the President’s most hated media list, Mika and Joe aren’t the only ones. The CNN beat down tweet could be a subliminal message aimed at Sellers. This wouldn’t be completely random since the two have a history of heated exchanges, remember this?
Keeping in mind their contentious online relations it’s definitely not a stretch to think that the criticism from Sellers prompted the “Trump v. CNN body-slam”!
