Washington: US President Donald Trump launched a fresh attack on the news media Sunday by tweeting a video—bizarre even by his standards—showing him knocking down and beating a professional wrestling “villain” whose face had been replaced by a CNN logo. In the 28-second video, Trump, dressed in a suit, is seen knocking down another man in a suit who is standing next to a wrestling ring. Trump then pummels the man, whose face is covered by the CNN logo, repeatedly over the head. Trump has recently picked up the pace of his attacks on the news media. Amid a torrent of criticism over his attack on Brzezinski, Trump doubled down on Saturday, tweeting: “My use of social media is not Presidential - it’s MODERN DAY PRESIDENTIAL.
