President Donald Trump gave CNN a rare compliment on Tuesday for covering most of the Tuesday night’s events of the Republican National Convention (RNC).

“Very appreciative that @CNN covered the vast majority of the Republican Convention last night,” he wrote in a Twitter post. “That was really good for CNN, while at the same time being good for our Country. Thank you!”
