As we told you Thursday, White House reporter April Ryan got into a verbal tussle with Trump press secretary Sarah Sanders, who at one point informed Ryan that “you don’t know me!” Ryan then went on CNN to air her grievances with Sanders over that back-and-forth, saying that the press secretary’s rhetoric was “very street.” Later, speaking with Don Lemon on CNN, Ryan took that a step further and said Sanders’ words were pretty much an invitation to throw down right there in the White House briefing room:
CNN's April Ryan on Sarah Sanders:
"To say 'you don't know me' — in certain quarters in this nation that starts a physical fight."
I'm sorry, did she just imply that Sarah Sanders wanted to fight her? https://t.co/M82RhHiDRy pic.twitter.com/mk7bIizzZI

That reaction seems a bit, um, melodramatic and over-the-top.
Why else bring up people fighting each other over "you don't know me" unless she was trying to paint Sanders as violent?

Hey, is it the White House briefing room, or UFC? Ryan seems unsure what to think.
