As GOP convention descends into chaos, Donald Trump rips CNN

The Republican National Convention began Monday, and it didn't take long for things to get interesting. As Republicans, Democrats, independents, and anyone interested in the state of America and the direction it's headed turned their eyes to the convention floor in Cleveland as it descended into chaos over a contentious voice vote, the man of the hour, presumptive party nominee Donald Trump, seemed to be watching... CNN?

To recap: Everyone with a vested interest in the Republican Party's chances this fall and its future beyond 2016 was gathered in Cleveland (virtually or physically) to opine upon Donald Trump. Donald Trump, meanwhile, was busy angrily tweeting about cable news.
