Donald Trump Jr., continued to feud with CNN after they went apoplectic when President Trump tweeted a video meme of him body slamming the network. Not only did he body slam the network, he also gave them a new name: Fraud News.

CNN went on a witch hunt to hunt down the user who they believed originally created the meme. They even hinted at blackmailing him, threatening to release his identity.
CNN is not publishing “HanA**holeSolo’s” name because he is a private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of apology, showed his remorse by saying he has taken down all his offending posts, and because he said he is not going to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again. In addition, he said his statement could serve as an example to others not to do the same.
CNN reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change.
However, after targeting the private citizen, CNN disclosed they went after the wrong person. A White House official even confirmed the meme did not come from Reddit.
On Monday, a senior administration official told CNN that the video was not pulled from Reddit.
CNN’s reckless actions inspired a deluge of more memes targeting the Fraud News Network. But perhaps one of the best ones came from Donald Trump Jr.
It uses a scene from Top Gun and shows President Trump taking down CNN. Twitter believes the video contains sensitive material. So you will have to click view in order to watch it.
One of the best I've seen. 😂🇺🇸😂🇺🇸 https://t.co/rqCplijJ57

It’s definitely a good one! I’m glad the President and his family are not backing down to the downright evil bullying tactics being used by CNN!
Here are some other good ones:

Love this meme, but #CNNBlackmail is a serious violation that can corrupt our country! Call Congress to investigate! https://t.co/s5V4VHeLam

This Star Wars one might be my favorite. It’s hard to choose between it and the Terminator 2 one.
