Politics - News Analysis Trump Just Tweeted a Cruel Meme About CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, ‘Fake News is so Bad for our Country!’

Donald Trump went on a tear this morning, tweeting about the ‘WITCH HUNT’ and even tweeting a demeaning meme about CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.

Trump first slammed special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe as a “witch hunt” in a new tweet on Friday, calling for it to end amid reports that it is coming to a close.

“Highly respected Senator Richard Burr, head of Senate Intelligence, said, after interviewing over 200 witnesses and studying over 2 million pages of documents, ‘WE HAVE FOUND NO COLLUSION BETWEEN THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND RUSSIA.’ The Witch Hunt, so bad for our Country, must end!” Trump tweeted.

In the last week, several news organizations have reported that Mueller could file his report on his investigation with the Department of Justice as early as next week.

Trump then retweeted a tweet from a user named Wayne Dunlap who said, DESPERATE FARCE! No evidence has been presented after years of investigation by organizations w/ massive resources & contacts FBI, U.S. intelligence apparatus, huge news networks & media, Democrat Party, Hillary’s campaign, U.S. Congress, and a once-in-a-decade Special Prosecutor”

Included in the tweet was a meme of CNN’s veteran reporter Wolf Blitzer looking very old in the year 2038.

Trump added, “Fake news is so bad for our country!”
