Trump knocks NBC, MSNBC on debate glitch: ‘Truly unprofessional’
President Trump knocked NBC and MSNBC for a microphone glitch during the first Democratic primary debate in a series of tweets late Wednesday and early Thursday.
“.@NBCNews and @MSNBC should be ashamed of themselves for having such a horrible technical breakdown in the middle of the debate,” he tweeted during debates. “Truly unprofessional and only worthy of a FAKE NEWS Organization, which they are!”

Trump followed that up with an edited video of the debate in which the lights are turned off, the president appears and then a slogan for Trump/Pence 2020 emerges.
