粉丝目睹川普在CNN上的惊人狂言“我们剥夺了言论自由”后猛批CNN

Trump defender and Federalist reporter Brianna Lyman lashed out at CNN when anchor Abby Phillip showed her a clip of President Donald Trump announcing “We took the freedom of speech away” — a clip Lyman admitted she hadn’t seen.

 

Trump made the stunning declaration at a White House event devoted to his campaign against “Antifa”:

 

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: We took the freedom of speech away because that’s been through the courts and the court said you have freedom of speech but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds, they’ve never seen anything like it on both sides and you end up with riots.

On Wednesday’s edition of CNN NewsNight, Phillip hosted a panel comprised of Lyman, Cornel West, Phil Williams, and Congressman Dan Goldman (D-NY).
