Overnight, President Trump, the First Lady, Vice President Pence and other members of the Trump administration had a private greeting with the three American hostages North Korea released only yesterday.
It was historic.

Even if you’re not a Trump supporter, you have to admit this is pretty damn amazing.
Surely nobody would take issue with the president making time to welcome these Americans home, right?
Trump: "I think you probably broke the all-time in history television rating for 3 o'clock in the morning." https://t.co/ZQWPLWS9cM

Brian.
Bubby.
Seriously, you’ve got to let this go. Trump plays to the camera, so did Obama. You guys helped create this environment so you’re just going to have to deal with it.
Trump makes funny joke, horrifies @brianstelter https://t.co/EKs86nkdEK

Then again, we imagine Brian feels really, really, really stupid now that the American prisoners are actually home after tweeting this a little over a week ago.
Context for Trump's tweet: Some prominent Trump supporters on social media (like @RyanAFournier) spread a rumor about the Americans being released, without evidence. https://t.co/ecdBTsbRl0

And c’mon, if ANYONE knows about releasing a story without evidence it’s CNN.
Will you be meeting them with Trump later at Andrews or will you Be eating crow somewhere else, Tater?

Yeah, we’re not seeing one on his timeline.
And he wonders why our trust in the media is at an all-time low.
Keep up the good work, Bri.
