Donald Trump accused CNN of cutting off video of his Pennsylvania rally on Monday night, saying the network shut off its camera while the GOP nominee was telling a crowd of thousands about the news network's shortcomings.
Trump repeated a false claim he had tweeted earlier, that CNN had purposely manipulated a post-debate focus group to produce a pro-Hillary Clinton result.
"CNN is a disgrace, Trump said.
Then, Trump claimed CNN had turned its camera off: "Oh, they just turned off their camera! So funny, they just turned off their camera. I love it! Trump said.
But Trump was wrong. CNN was actually turning its cameras on, and was moments away from going live from the Trump rally with correspondent Sunlen Serfaty. Video from CNNs broadcast and the raw feed from Trumps rally confirm that sequence of events.

And even then, he'll just blame it on Obama. This is sickening. The media and democrats aren't doing enough to expose the lies.
