LMAO! President Trump "claimed" he got the most amount of votes in Texas history...
...the CNBC host said "we need to fact check you on that."
Then he came back: "So, you DID get the highest number of votes in Texas. So, that's true. Moving on."

Idiots.
Doesn’t sound “red faced”. Sounds vindicated.
When was the last time ABCNNBCBS ‘fact checked’ a Democrat on anything?.....................the 12th of Never...............
They ONLY “fact check” Trump and the GOP. Never once fact checked ole Biden and apparently never noticed he did not hold a single actual press conference in 4 years.
Then, they always insert “unproven” or “unsubstantiated” or something similar when Trump discusses all the Dem proven attacks and conspiracies, the the Hunter Laptop and Russian Steele dossier etc.
Corrupt media = Leftist activists
Terrible headline.
I read it as “Trump was red-faced” with either anger or embarrassment. But the headline actually means Trump scored a victory and left CNBC red-faced with anger and embarrassment. I consider sloppy headlines like this to be “artful” and intentional.
Trump didn’t “just win.” He eviscerated any semblance of what was once known as the Democrat party. We reached a stunning national consensus -— we have not lived in anything resembling the nation that was envisioned by our Founders. That is about to be reversed, dramatically evidenced in 2024’s presidential election when a broad coalition voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump.

No!
They are the Enemedia, trying at every opportunity to give aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States
Exactly how I read it.
Crappy headline ... I read it the same way you did.
Then I read the article ... CNBC is "red-faced". But people who ONLY read the headline will get exactly the wrong impression. Funny how it works that way. It can't possibly be deliberate ... right?
Well, they’re idiots for their aiding and abetting the enemy and pushing for the destruction of this great nation, no?
Another leftist reporter stepped on a rake!
Typically ambiguous headline.
In Vietnamese it is quite difficult to make an ambiguous headline like that. If one tries the result will be simply nonsense.
No.->Trump received 2.5 million votes more than he did in 2020
True. But the midterms are coming up in 2026.
I had a 5th grade English teacher that could diagram that sentence.
“leaves CNBC red-faced”
False headline I agree, I saw it. My take is nobody was “red-faced”. Show co-host Joe Kernan is a Trump supporter, friend of Trump, they let him conduct about 80% of the interview and he was happy to be able verify the claim. I assume a political officer producer told Joe in his earpiece to say they needed to verify it.
Trump as a guest was a big “get”, and the show wanted him back in the future and made that clear at the end. The TDS, NYT liberal co-host of that show is Andrew Ross Sorkin and they only had Sorkin ask a couple of questions, and he and his questions were unusually respectful and civil (for him).
I agree, the interview was a big win for Trump to get to refute the usual lefty fake-news that NBC News inserts into CNBC. In some cases Pres. Trump went on at length about his successes and corrected some of the false historical narratives CNBC espouses, instead of sticking to the questions he was asked.
