Because Trump is arguing semantics and CNN isn't. There's no other way to interpret what he said.

Its the exact opposite...

Trump never said shoot so CNN is arguing semantics.

How fucking awkward XD


Lmao what!? That's not how it works at all

The phrase arguing semantics doesnt really indicate that the discussion is about something other than meaning, just that the precise nature of that meaning is not terribly important.

IE: Trump makes the claim he didn't "technically" say shoot. CNN is making the claim that it isn't about the precise phrase "shoot", it's about the implications of such phrase and the precise phrase doesn't matter.

Now you're just arguing semantics about the phrase "arguing semantics". Sheez, LIBRULS! AMIRITE? XD XD XD I'm a serious person.
