"Sloppy @carlbernstein, a man who lives in the past and thinks like a degenerate fool, making up story after story, is being laughed at all over the country!" Trump tweeted.
Projection's a beach, ain't it?Quote:
The network hit back, replying to Trump's tweet.
"Make no mistake, Mr. President, CNN does not lie. We report the news. And we report when people in power tell lies. CNN stands by our reporting and our reporters. There may be many fools in this story but @carlbernstein is not one of them," it said.
Ouch! Payback's a beach, too.Quote:
Trump's attack on Bernstein comes as the White House braces for the release of a book by Woodward.
"Fear: Trump in the White House," which comes out on September 11, "reveals in unprecedented detail the harrowing life inside Donald Trump's White House and how the president makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies," publisher Simon & Schuster said.
