Yeah, that's what he's saying.
I think maybe he was referring to the same outcry from CNN when it happened before. You remember those stories, right? Tribal. The same media that searched for the pony in a room full of horse crap during the Obama admin is now looking for the horse crap in a room full of ponies.
At least they had the decency to admit it in the negative story about Trump....but not as "BREAKING NEWS".
