If you have to ask 'Is it rude?" It's rude.

That's all. Move on.

nothing CNN did here is in anyway different than FOX NEWS every single day of the year. Trump's should stick to his scripts, when he does not he ends up sounding like a fool.


I see nothing wrong at all with CNN and MSNBC treating Trump the same way FOX/Drudge treated OBAMA and treats liberal politicians every single day of the year.

what we really have here is TrumPutins getting upset to see their leader being treated with the same level of respect and fairness that the Liberals have endured for most of the last two decades..

The first thing I noticed is that Trump did not mention Honda and Nissan, both of which are considerably bigger then Mazda. So why did he mention Mazda? Maybe he may have been trying to make a point about which Japanese companies are contributing to the American economy and those just using it as a sales location. I would have to see some kind of figures to see if that is reasonable. And without seeing the whole Trump speech, it is not possible to know if that is what he was thinking.

Anyway to the OP's point, I get that many people do not like Trump, but by now only the most biased person will not admit that some in the media are attacking Trump unfairly. They are supposed to be the news media, not the propaganda arm of politicians and political parties.

Indeed.

CNN has become the network of the Trump Deranged, Race Hucksters, and leftists who generally hate most Americans.

Why considers them anything but Fake News today, given the things that have been exposed about them, is beyond me.

No one needs to make Trump look bad, he does it so well all by himself on a daily basis.

-------------------------
Left-wing CNN has been caught red-handed selectively-editing a Donald Trump quote as a means to make the president look foolish during his overseas trip to Japan.

In its second piece of very fake news launched against Trump Monday morning (here is the first), CNN’s snarky and dishonest headline reads, “Trump asks Japan to build cars in the U.S. It already does.” In order to justify its misleading headline, CNN lies through omission by deliberately publishing only part of Trump’s statement during a meeting with Japanese automakers on Monday:

“Try building your cars in the United States instead of shipping them over. Is that possible to ask? That’s not rude. Is that rude? I don’t think so,” is the only part of what Trump said that CNN bothers to quote.

CNN then points and laughs at Trump’s ignorance with this deceptive fact check: “Japanese automakers, however, already have huge factories in the U.S. that churn out millions of cars each year.”

But in order to mock the president, the fake news factory that is CNN misleads its readers by not quoting Trump in full, a quote which very clearly shows the president is not only fully aware of that fact that Japanese automakers make cars in America, but that he is grateful to them for doing so:

And we love it when you build cars — if you’re a Japanese firm, we love it — try building your cars in the United States instead of shipping them over. Is that possible to ask? That’s not rude. Is that rude? I don’t think so. (Laughter.) If you could build them. But I must say, Toyota and Mazda — where are you? Are you here, anybody? Toyota? Mazda? I thought so. Oh, I thought that was you. That’s big stuff. Congratulations. Come on, let me shake your hand. (Applause.) They’re going to invest $1.6 billion in building a new manufacturing plant, which will create as many as 4,000 new jobs in the United States. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. (Applause.)

Very Fake News: CNN Selectively Edits Trump Quote on Japanese Auto Production In U.S.
Hello??? Did you even read what you posted? CNN was 100% accurate. Jesus Christ. And the ignorant cons responding didn't bother to read either.

"Most Americans" - Fox News viewers like me

"Trump Deranged" - anyone exercising their FOS and saying anything negative about our fearless leader

"Race Hucksters" - racist behavior is not racist because Race Hucksters

"Leftists" - see Trump Deranged

"Fake News" - anything but Fox news and Rightist radio talk shows - see CNN

How about the fact that Trump said to world leaders "I had no idea we had so many countries."
