Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday toasted CNN‘s indefinite suspension of anchor Chris Cuomo.

“Great news for television viewers, they have just suspended Chris Cuomo indefinitely,” Trump said in a statement. “The big question is, was it because of his horrendous ratings, which in all fairness have permeated CNN and MSDNC, or was it because his brother is no longer Governor? Probably both.”
