As Twitchy told you earlier today, a video from @CarpeDonktum has gone viral, and it’s pretty darn hilarious:

Guys, just FYI, this HAS been doctored: @CarpeDonktum’s newest video of Trump and CNN goes viral and OMG-LOL https://t.co/9OCgwraCuI

What could make that even funnier? A meme of CNN’s “Reliable Sources” host performing an analysis of the political meme culture, with a twist? Ask and ye shall receive:

Best Episode of @ReliableSources EVER, thanks @brianstelter! pic.twitter.com/MWnqD7Mc21

And naturally it has to be asked:

Ok is this a meme within a meme or did Stelter actual play the whole clip? https://t.co/ESEg10FpIy

Brian Stelter commented on that this way:

However, it seems that only part of that video is the real deal, but Stelter was thanked for helping spread the word about some additional material:

Full disclosure, he didn't actually watch or broadcast my Spaceballs meme… UNTIL HE RETWEETED IT.
