Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump (https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump) 12m12 minutes ago (https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/832708293516632065)
The FAKE NEWS media (failing @nytimes (https://twitter.com/nytimes), @NBCNews (https://twitter.com/NBCNews), @ABC (https://twitter.com/ABC), @CBS (https://twitter.com/CBS), @CNN (https://twitter.com/CNN)) is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People!

We note that this was actually a second tweet after President Trump deleted the original (adding ABC and CBS)...

We look forward to the media's shocked responses.
Trump attacks so-called "fake news" media and then deletes tweet. And here I thought we made progress yesterday. Sad. pic.twitter.com/Zr2FOFhxFI (https://t.co/Zr2FOFhxFI)

Let's be clear: "Enemy of the people" (???? ??????) is pure Bolshevism. Trump is citing core Chekist slogans now.https://t.co/S6y7fH5Tzx
