CNN didn't even quote him properly.
He said "beautiful thing" He seems to be asking a rhetorical question.
Then he finished the thought:
"No, because after we take all that crap for weeks and weeks, and you finally see men get up there and go right through them, wasn't it really a beautiful sight? It's called law and order."
So much for a reliable news source.
No, it was reliable. as was this:
Trump gloated over an MSNBC anchor being shot by a rubber bullet at an anti-racism protest, calling it a 'beautiful sight'
listen to the video - Trump uses "beautiful thing" twice with the first time being when he says they just moved him aside. Then after a bit, makes the statement you quote.
But Trump was wrong. He was not hit by a gas cannister, and he was not moved aside by anyone. Velshi simply said, "Hold on, I got hit."
And no, the whole thing was not beautiful - not the protest going on or the police response or others who were hurt. One reporter lost the vision in one eye. That is sad.
