President Donald Trump used his reality TV catchphrase to insult reporters during a Thanksgiving Day event.

The president spoke to military service members via teleconference, and complained their conversation were public because he was “surrounded by reporters and press,” reported Business Insider.

He asked them to leave by falling back on his old catchphrase from NBC’s reality show “The Apprentice.”

“I will say: ‘You’re fired,'” Trump said, “nd, by the way, media: Happy Thanksgiving.”

Every single one of his stupid rallies from some stupid airport hanger somewhere was covered live, with no commentary or critique of the racist garbage that was spewing out of his mouth.

Even admitting the free election coverage was merely for profit. Are they really the final guardians of democracy because they are acting more like enemies.

Not you CNN, at least you have had an about face even if there is still no admission of the same malfeasance during the election.
