I saw something today - Sunday, July 15th, 2018- exactly like this on CNN's Jake Tapper show about 1:3- 2:30 pm in, by the way, a McDonald's. There was the same CNN banner stating Donald Trump asked the Russians for help finding Hillary's emails, knowing all along that Mr. Trump was being ironic. In the same way when candidate John McCain jokingly replied it was about six million, adding this remark would be distorted by Obama who sat near him. It was indeed. By Obama: TD
Snopes says True, but elaborates without judging Obama. "Although this item is “true” in the strictly literal sense that John McCain did make the remark attributed to him, how much importance to place upon it is a subjective issue. Predictably, Democrats painted Senator McCain’s remarks as indicative of his being out of touch with ordinary Americans and desirous of giving tax breaks to the rich, while the McCain campaign dismissed the candidate’s statement as an obvious joke. (A Democratic National Committee video spotlighted Senator McCain’s “$5 million” statement while omitting the remarks that surrounded it; the full exchange in context can be viewed here.) "

"CNN commentator Christine Quinn went there in reaction to Donald Trump asking Russia to release Hillary Clinton‘s missing 30,000 emails."Trump today said, “They probably have her 33,000 emails that she lost and deleted. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.”"Quinn was stunned by that and cried, “It’s honestly almost treasonous!”"Fellow CNN commentator Andre Bauer shot back, “It’s treasonous to have 30,000 emails disappear! It’s treasonous to the American public!”"They fought as Quinn called Trump irresponsible and Bauer insisted Trump just “wants to be friendly with everybody.' ” . . .
In an internet search, the entire first page supported the distorted, anti-Trump version. Finally on page two of the Bing search: ‘Of course I’m being sarcastic’: MSM misses Trump’s joke on Russia & Hillary emails. They didn't miss it; they chose this interpretation. The Tunnel Dweller.
