For weeks, Trump has been referring to himself as the 'law and order' choice in 2020
Chris Cillizza, an editor-at-large for CNN, was criticized on social media over a tweet calling out President Trump’s use of the word “riots” when describing the continued unrest in major cities across the U.S.
CNN has been taken to task in recent days over its coverage of the protests. The network was most recently panned over an on-air graphic describing one protest as “fiery but mostly peaceful."
Cillizza’s own tweet calling out Trump's use of the word "riots" was mocked online because it was accompanied by an image that showed what appeared to be law enforcement officers standing in front of a building completely engulfed in flames.
“Trump’s efforts to label what is happening in major cities as “riots” speaks at least somewhat to his desperation, politically speaking, at the moment,” Cillizza tweeted.
Cillizza tries to make his point in his newsletter by pointing to recent comments from Trump at a rally in New Hampshire and the Republican National Convention. Trump said his party, “condemns the rioting, looting, arson and violence” in cities like Portland, Minneapolis and Chicago, Cillizza pointed out.
