President Trump took questions from reporters today during a press gaggle, and CNN's Jim Acosta asked about Gen. Michael Flynn:
Jim Acosta ~ Asked Trump whether he will pardon Flynn. Wouldn't answer but praised Flynn repeatedly. When I pointed out he said he fired Flynn for lying to Pence and FBI, Trump: "He's going to come back bigger and better."
In Trump's response, he took the opportunity to shred CNN in a relatively polite way (compared to previous Trump/Acosta run-ins):
President Trump:
"He's in the process of being exonerated. If you look at those notes from yesterday, that was total exoneration. These were dirty, filthy cops at the top of the FBI."
"I hope your networks are going to cover it." {Topic: Michael Flynn's "exoneration."} "I think it would be so good for CNN if you covered it honestly."
"CNN tormented him [Gen. Flynn] in all fairness."
