Trump was asked by CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins if he only wants outlets that support him to be part of the Press Pool & he tells her to be quiet & then he looks angrily at her & says “what we don’t want is fake news like you” & he extends his right arm in her direction & I’m not sure if he touched her or not which is concerning. He also called MSNBC MSDNC again calling them fake News & saying he won by a landslide. A landslide of what?
