Trump Campaign Accuses ABC's Martha Raddatz Of 'Fake News Tantrum'

Steve Cheung, former President Donald Trump’s campaign spokesperson, criticized ABC’s Martha Raddatz, the co-anchor of “This Week with George Stephanopoulos,” on Sunday, asserting that her “Trump Derangement Syndrome” was on full display.

During the interview, Raddatz spoke with Trump surrogate Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC.) on a panel alongside Trump supporters.”

While discussing the $83 million defamation ruling against Trump and his attacks on rival Nikki Haley, Raddatz pressed Scott to address these issues directly.

Despite Scott’s attempts to shift the focus to Haley, Raddatz persisted, stating, “I want to talk about Donald Trump. Please answer the question about him calling her a birdbrain.”

Cheung claimed that she “nearly fought back tears” during the interview, although it did not seem to be the case. He asserted that her “fake news tantrum” was also on “full display,” attributing it to President Trump leading “Crooked Joe” in the polls.

Raddatz, alongside CNN’s Anderson Cooper, moderated a notorious 2016 Trump-Clinton debate, marked by testy exchanges, a lack of initial handshakes, and Trump inviting Bill Clinton’s accusers into the audience.
