Wow. So the Trump people have reporters' tweets ready to use in campaign ads targeting... reporters:
They’re already prepared to attack reporters. “Any reporter who tries that will be hit with 30-second spots of all their ridiculous claims about collusion,” said the source, who, like others interviewed for this story, requested anonymity to describe private conversations. “Their tweets have all been screencapped. It’s all ready to go.” (“It's the same thing we've been doing the last two years. We're going to hold the media accountable when we see fit,” an RNC official clarified, adding that this would include digital clips shared on social media.)
The president wants to run on “no collusion”—but his fellow Republicans think that would be the wrong message at the wrong time, @elainaplott and @peteratlantic report: https://t.co/Nojntp62JM
