President Trump dismissed a question from a CNN reporter after learning of his employer during a press briefing on the G7 Summit in Charlevoix, Canada.
The reporter said that there was a sense that the president and some of America's allies were angry and frustrated with one another.
He asked Trump if he believed the U.S. alliance system was shifting under his leadership, after which the president asked what news outlet he was with.
"Who are you with, out of curiosity?" Trump asked the reporter.
"CNN," the reporter replied.
The president smirked and said, "I figured. Fake news CNN. The worst."

You say this like it's a good thing he's using his own triggered sensibilities to justify ignoring questions.
Next he'll blame his bone spurs for dodging inquiry.

Well, it's a good question.
Are alliances shifting?
Dismissing the question because it's CNN seems to be deflection.

I see this like the media questioning if trump hits his wife...these questions are not real, they are meant to sow discord and mistrust.
I am glad he calls them out.

Go see which one of these alleged shifting alliances has actually pulled their boots off the ground in Syria or their air from the sky, none of them. The real guage of alliances is where the soldiers are committed to. Yammering on about trade is basic politics. The leaders have to appear outraged, the truth is no doodoo's are given by either side. It's All a play anyways, with a script at that.
