CNN's chief national correspondent John King reacts to the happenings of the Trump campaign Friday.



Trump had promised to deliver a statement about whether he believes President Obama was born in the U.S., but 20 minutes into the live broadcast he had not said anything on the subject. Instead, the national media broadcast veterans speak on his behalf.



"We got played, again, by the Trump campaign, which is what they do," King said on CNN moments after Trump wrapped up his event. "He got a live event broadcast for some 20 minutes."



CNN's Jake Tapper said that the public got "rickrolled" by Trump and CNN analyst Marc Lamont Hill said the whole spectacle was "disgusting."
