Trump Goes After 'Pathetic And Dishonest' Weekly Standard After Closure Announcement
- 5 years ago
President Trump on Saturday went after a publication that announced its closure after 23 years.
President Trump on Saturday slammed the Weekly Standard magazine, one day after the publication announced its closure.
"The pathetic and dishonest Weekly Standard, run by failed prognosticator Bill Kristol (who, like many others, never had a clue), is flat broke and out of business. Too bad. May it rest in peace!" Trump tweeted.
CNN reported on Friday the magazine that "espouses traditional conservatism and which has remained deeply critical of President Donald Trump, will shutter after 23 years."
Shortly before his Weekly Standard jab on Saturday, Trump went after the broader media industry in another tweet.
"Never in the history of our Country has the 'press' been more dishonest than it is today," Trump wrote. "Stories that should be good, are bad. Stories that should be bad, are horrible. Many stories, like with the REAL story on Russia, Clinton & the DNC, seldom get reported. Too bad!"
