Trump blasts media talking heads over Pence debate reports

Donald Trump on Thursday blasted media talking heads for reporting that he was unhappy with running mate Mike Pence’s debate performance against Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine.
{mosads}When asked about reports that he was upset that Pence got better reviews from his debate performance at a town hall Thursday, the Republican presidential nominee went after CNN’s John King and CNBC’s John Harwood.
“But John King said … you know they always have a source, they always have a source. ‘A source within’ — nobody talks to him. Because he’s like the enemy,” Trump said.
“But he said, and a few other people said, ‘Donald Trump was at first happy, and then he was unhappy because Mike Pence did so well.’ I said, ‘Unhappy? We are jumping up and down, he was so good.’ “
