WATCH: CNN Devotes Two Segments to Trump’s ‘Executive Privilege’ for Eating Two Scoops of Ice Cream

CNN devoted not one, but two segments on how President Trump got two scoops of ice cream while his dinner guests only got one as the network tried to pass off a “scoop” about the president’s eating habits as news.

In a segment titled, “Two scoops for Trump,” CNN’s Jeanne Moos talks about Trump’s “executive privilege” for receiving two scoops of ice cream while the three TIME magazine correspondents he had dinner with only got one.

“At the dessert course, he gets two scoops of vanilla ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, instead of the single scoop for everyone else,” TIME’s Michael Scherer and Zeke Miller wrote.

But this was not the only segment CNN devoted to the subject.

CNN also gave airtime to an interview between CNN’s Brooke Baldwin and CNN political reporter and editor-at-large Chris Cillizza with the headline, “President Gets Two Scoops of Ice Cream, Everyone Else One.”

“The President gets two scoops, you know, everyone around the table gets one, and no word if there were sprinkles,” Baldwin commented.

“This explains a lot,” the Atlantic’s David Frum wrote on Twitter, to which Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post responded saying that Trump is “a man unable to restrain his urges.”

Fox News host Sean Hannity mocked CNN for its “hard-hitting coverage.”

I hope it was not vanilla ice cream. Then they would call President Trump a racist.

I wonder if the uniparty media realizes when they pull this crap, if they know they are broadcasting just how well Trump is living inside their heads.

They never mentioned the irony of the man who’s married to that acclaimed bodybuilding and fitness champion Michelle Obama, scarfing down hotdogs and Kobe beef! Hmmm, this sounds suspiciously like partisan propaganda rather than true journalism! Anybody else out there notice this??? /SARCASM ;)

That's true, but if he ate chocolate ice cream, they would call him a racist, for killing blacks, by eating them. These people are out of their rabid ass minds.

CNN and the rest of their hypocritical Leftist buddies in the media are irrelevant.

They are not journalists but political hacks.

What they say does not matter any more. Their numbers are tiny too. They are appealing to a very tiny audience. I think 1/2 their numbers are simply because Airports, subways and bus stations still have them tuned in still.

CNN is a joke. All people are watching are Democratic hacks attaching conservatives all day long. They are not objective journalists.

I’ll take two scoops of vanilla ice cream over the two vanilla (i.e. white) stupid aholes of CNN and raise you some sprinkles.

While we’re n the topic of food and Presidents, I’ll bet CNN had nothing to say at that time when Obama rudely leaned over a cafeteria glass, breathed talked pointed and drooled over the prepared menu selections.

I detect a redundancy there.

...”I hope it was not vanilla ice cream. Then they would call President Trump a racist.”...

And, they try to convince the public that President Trump has a mental problem?!!! Media derangement is on full display here. Someone needs to pass a law that random drug testing needs to be done on anyone putting out stories from the media.
