  1. As much of you might be aware, CNN posted [this article](https://archive.is/gjoJt) about a list of 57 things that Trump got "wrong" in Phoenix. It's poorly worded, and it's absolutely childish. I'm going to take apart these and see what's wrong.

  11. Num | Trump Quote | CNN Comment | Why that's wrong
  12. ----:|:---------------------|:---------------------------|:-------------------------------------------------
  13. 18 | "I didn't say I love you because you're black, or I love you because you're white, or I love you because you're from Japan, or you're from China, or you're from Kenya, or you're from Scotland or Sweden. I love all the people of our country." | Pathetic [poll reference](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1661.0-1663.1) | The article can't even establish itself without referencing a poll. By the way, CNN's numbers **DID** go down, Google just edited them so they go up again.
  14. 19 | "How about -- how about all week they're talking about the massive crowds that are going to be outside. Where are they? Well, it's hot out. It is hot. I think it's too warm." | "But, again, multiple media reports -- including CNN's -- show that there were thousands of protesters." | There were about 100 Protesters left by the time that Trump started his speech, most of the protesters went home or were disbanded before the rally even started.
  15. 20 | "You know, they show up in the helmets and the black masks, and they've got clubs and they've got everything -- Antifa!" | CNN sounds like a 7th grader sharing a youtube video with his friends, "MUST WATCH UNTIL THE END111111" | This is a classic example of a pathetic use of context-shifting.
  16. 21 | "Then I said, racism is evil. Do they report that I said that racism is evil?" | Narrator's voice: They did | CNN uses pathetic childlike voice-acting in text to make themselves sound funny. It's not even funny. CNN also edited the article that they referenced **after** Trump's remarks. Nice try.
  17. 22 | "Now they only choose, you know, like a half a sentence here or there and then they just go on this long rampage, or they put on these real lightweights all around a table that nobody ever heard of, and they all say what a bad guy I am." | CNN [deceptively takes one example of them doing that, completely ignoring the other examples of their neglect to accurately cover Trump's intentions and remarks](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1711.0-1727.294). | They really like to skip over stuff.
  18. 23 | "But, I mean do you ever see anything -- and then you wonder why CNN is doing relatively poorly in the ratings" | "[See #16](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1737.0-1737.8)" | CNN still cannot establish themselves with a second argument, either. This only adds to their childishness.
  19. 24 | "But with me, they wanted me to say it, and I said it. And I said it very clearly, but they refused to put it on." | CNN [deceptively only references the first and the third remarks of Trump's comments relative to Charlottesville, completely skipping the actual statement on Sunday, the one that he was talking about](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1747.0-1747.311). | They can't even cover what he was talking about. They completely skipped over a conference reference, they were only talking about Saturday and Tuesday, when Trump was talking about Sunday.
  20. 25 | "I hit him with neo-Nazi. I hit them with everything. I got the white supremacists, the neo-Nazi. I got them all in there, let's say. KKK, we have KKK. I got them all." | CNN manipulates Trump's intentions behind why he said that, instead of accurately saying that that quote was actually talking about CNN's neglect to report that he included Neo-Nazis. | CNN [deceptively turns the attention back to Trump, criticising his "intentions" and using hypothetical reporting](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1757.56-1757.171), it's almost as if they **don't even WANT to** report about what he actually said.
  21. 26 | "So then the last one, on Tuesday -- Tuesday I did another one: 'We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence." | CNN [references two speeches, skipping over one](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1767.36-1767.78) | CNN, once **AGAIN**, only talks about the Saturday and Tuesday remarks, completely skipping the fact that Trump **was** actually talking about the Sunday remarks.
  22. 27 | "So that was my words." | "All dedicated to rewriting what he actually said about Charlottesville." | Trump wasn't rewriting anything, Trump was **actually talking about how *CNN* rewrote about what happened**. That's some nice projection right there.
  23. 28 | "Now, you know, I was a good student. I always hear about the elite. You know, the elite. They're elite?" | CNN [doesn't even talk about the comment.... they just reference something else](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1791.0-1795.23) | What does Ric Flair have to do with this?
  24. 29 | "The words were perfect. They only take out anything they can think of, and for the most part, all they do is complain. But they don't put on those words. And they don't put on me saying those words." | "The media reported every word Trump said about Charlottesville. Period. The end." | No, actually, you **didn't**, otherwise, we would have heard a lot more about Trump condemning Neo-Nazis, rather than "pandering and defending White Supremacists", which was something that CNN reported a lot, actually, a lot more than the News itself.
  25. 30 | "And yes, by the way -- and yes, by the way, they are trying to take away our history and our heritage. You see that." | "You don't have to look very hard to see racial and ethnic coding in that language." | I'm looking, I'm looking! Nope, I didn't find anything.
  26. 31 | "I really think they don't like our country. I really believe that." | "Trump's claim that the media doesn't "like" America is hugely offensive." | I'm not surprised that *CNN* would say something like that, clearly they're offended. Imagine how offensive it is to have your entire group of voters stereotyped as being "100% White Supremacist", without regard to the fact that there are about 200-300 **actual** stupid KKK-scumbags and about 6 Million registered Voting Republicans. That's offensve too, you know.
  27. 32 | "Look back there, the live red lights. They're turning those suckers off fast out there. They're turning those lights off fast." | [(narrator voice): They weren't.](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1835.0-1839.1) | Another childish display of stupidity by *CNN*, you're not even funny. They still keep the camera angles on even if they go off-air.
  28. 33 | "CNN does not want its falling viewership to watch what I'm saying tonight, I can tell you." | Yet [another reference](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1849.0-1849.8) to the bogus poll. | Imagine if CNN could come up with something original, that **actually** defended their argument, but nope, they **still** can't. The poll they referenced doesn't even have anything to do with the Viewership, it just references the "ratings", which have been deceptively edited by *Google*.
  29. 34 | "If I don't have social media, I probably would not be standing." | "Same." | Seriously? Did a teenager write this? There's literally no argument here, and the fact that *CNN* has the title to this article as "57 things that Trump got wrong", they should probably change the title to "Zero things that Trump got wrong", because most of these arguments don't even disprove or argue against what Trump actually said.
  30. 35 | "They'll say, 'Donald Trump is in a Twitter-storm.' These are sick people." | "[Your guess is as good as mine](https://archive.is/gjoJt#selection-1869.0-1869.30)." | Seriously? What does that have to do with the fact that he literally just referenced your bogus reporting of his tweets, yet you try to change the subject? That's some nice projection right there.
