President Donald Trump is calling out the media during his visit to CPAC, citing their horrible coverage of his administration so far.
Check out Trump hitting the media:

From the video:
“A few days ago, I called the fake news the ‘Enemy of the people,’ and they are,” Trump said. “They are the enemy of the people. Because they have no sources, they just make them up when there are none.”
“They’re very dishonest people,” Trump continued. “In fact in covering my comments, the dishonest media did not explain that I called the fake news the enemy of the people. The fake news. They dropped off the word ‘fake.’ And all of the sudden, the story became ‘the media is the enemy of the people.’ They take the word ‘fake’ out.”
“I’m not against the media. I’m not against the press. I don’t mind bad stories if I deserve them. And I love good stories, but we won’t… I don’t get too many of them. But I am only against the fake news media or press.”
He’s right. The media is dishonest.
Stop the dishonesty, media!
