(CNN) President Donald Trump's top aides are staying silent about the possible anti-Semitic, racist and anti-Muslim origins of a video the President tweeted Sunday, declining to answer a series of CNN questions about the video and its self-proclaimed originator.
A Reddit user who has posted anti-Semitic graphics in the past has taken credit for the video that shows Trump pummeling a man with a CNN logo as his head. The video, which superimposes the CNN logo over WWE's CEO Vince McMahon's face, is titled, "Trump takes down fake news." The Reddit user's previous anti-Semitic posts were published before the video Trump tweeted. A senior White House official, in response to questions about the origins of the video, said Monday that it was not pulled from Reddit, an online message board site. "The video was not pulled from Reddit," the official said, declining to answer other questions, including how the President was made aware of the video.
An analysis from the Anti-Defamation League said the video appears to have been first posted from Reddit user "Han-------Solo," whose name contains an obscenity. The user also took credit for the GIF on Sunday, posting online, "Holy s!! I wake up and have my morning coffee and who retweets my spost but the MAGA EMPORER himself!!! I am honored!!" MAGA is an acronym for the President's campaign slogan: Make America great again.

“Screwball Journalism” using Rube Goldberg logic..
Well let’s see. I had two great great grandads who fought for the South and I voted for the President. What does that add up to? Nothing you say? Well ask CNN, they could spin that up into a full-fledged race war.
‘OMG! Trump’s son-in-law and daughter are orthodox Jew. Das da wrong kind of Jew. Deys all anti-Semitic and stuff!’
The author’s last name is ‘merica’? Given his employer and his political stance, the boy needs to change his first name to ‘anti’: anti merica.
CNN groveling in the dirt to try to be relevant.
All of a sudden they agree with Romney that Corporations are now People? There is no connection between criticizing a corp and antisemitism, sorry.
Ten degrees of Kevin Bacon is grossly undercooked. Should reach 160 at least.
They just need to get that other hand in the alligator's mouth and it'll be finished.
They think we are just morons. And then dumber.
Major leftist contempt for the middle class and with that is their absolute fury that they can’t control us cattle.
Thank you Mr. Trump!
That’s what I love about Dims..
They won’t Stop till they have
Their heads In the Gators Jaws!
Link below is the original 2007 video “Trump taking down McMahon”. It was all a setup, done in fun between 2 billionaires and promoted wrestling. The first time I saw it was in 2015 when Trump was a candidate, and I sure did LOVE it that he was a brawler. There was discussion on FR about Trump the fighter, and I mentioned that this is candidate Trump going after the media. Who knew that would be a CNN boo hoo sob story after Donald Trump became president. WINNING!

Idiot liberals don’t even realize that WWE is FAKE..its all pretend PEOPLE 100 percent scripted..now doesn’t mean they dont legit get hurt of course they do but its all choreographed weeks in advance, I remember once years ago I told this kid online that wrestling was fake and he was like “NO DONT SAY THAT ITS REAL” LOL
Hmm the article never in any way shows any of the guy’s supposedly offensive comments from the past. As for this video, it consists of something Trump created years ago having nothing to do with whoever did the editing work. How ridiculous.
CNN is just astonishingly stupid
Just be glad he didn’t take a lead from 4chan/pol.
Ya know, Hitler was a vegetarian, which according to CNN, makes all vegetarians Hitler!

Indeed, I suspect most normal Americans are 2-3 degrees of separation from someone who is out there on the kook spectrum. Are we now responsible for the behavior of our friend's friends?
So, if we're going to,play that game CNN, let's start equally digging in on Frank Marshall Davis, Jeremiah Wright, the Ayers', and Van Jones to name a few. Oh wait, you already failed there.
