U.S President Donald Trump has taunted CNN after the media outlet’s headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia were attacked by rioters enraged by the death in police custody of 43-year-old African American man George Floyd.
“In an ironic twist of fate, CNN HQ is being attacked by the very riots they promoted as noble & just. Oops”
The President posted in a tweet which also included video footage of protesters spraying graffiti and shattering glass at the entrance to the CNN centre in Atlanta.
Other supports of the President took to social media to mock CNN claiming that their “race baiting” and “pandering” had spectacularly backfired and comparing rioters attacking the media giant’s HQ to Dr. Frankenstein being killed by his own monstrous creation.
Riots continued in numerous US cities over the weekend with the National Guard being deployed and curfews declared in several in a bid to stop the violence and looting.
