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.
Exactly how I read it.
In Vietnamese it is quite difficult to make an ambiguous headline like that. If one tries the result will be simply nonsense.
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.
