      Live on air: "When a president of the United States threatens North Korea by invoking the size of his nuclear button, it is fair to ask about his fitness.”https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/963209688094474242 …

      Fox News quoted a guy who claimed that I'm "obsessed with claiming Trump is mentally ill and talking about 'Trump's removal under the 25th Amendment.'" So... I checked. pic.twitter.com/tXZTE9tefU

      there's a big difference between "fitness" and "mental illness." i hope you see that.

          You're hiding behind semantics, but even that's inaccurate: This is something you said on air "Is the President of the United States a racist? Is he suffering **from some kind of illness?** Is he fit for office? And if he's unfit, then what?"https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2017/08/20/cnns-stelter-should-journalists-start-questioning-trumps …

          Also, here's a video of you saying "these are the messages from a person who is not well." If that is your position, then fine. Defend it. But don't say it/hint at it/imply it/ and then deny you ever had anything to say for yourself on the subject. Come onhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6WSNNI_L0s …

          i'll defend my segments all day long. but gainor said i'm "obsessed with claiming Trump is mentally ill and talking about 'Trump's removal under the 25th Amendment.'" that's provably false.

          this isn't about "semantics." word choice matters a lot. i have not "claimed Trump is mentally ill," which makes gainor's assertion false. if he had said i "asked questions about Trump's mental fitness, and said this is madness," that would be accurate.

          James Hasson Retweeted Brian Stelter

          Starting broadcasts with “[i]n discussions among friends and family and debates on social media, people are questioning the President's fitness” is the news-anchor version of Trump’s go-to line: “many people are saying.” You know that. And what about this?https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/899321525844811777 …

          It's uncomfortable to say this on TV: Is Trump ill? Is he unfit to be president? And if he IS unfit -- what then? http://money.cnn.com/video/news/2017/08/20/uncomfortable-questions-president-trump-brian-stelter-rs.cnnmoney/index.html …

          Come on, man. If that's something you want to assert, then assert it and defend it. But don't imply (and sometimes outright say) something and then deny it later. This is exactly what gives journalists a bad name.

          James Hasson Retweeted Brian Stelter

          When I say that you're trying to hide behind the "many people are saying" formulation, this is exactly what I mean: "many other folks are worried about Trump's fitness...is he suffering from some kind of [wait for it] *illness*?"https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/899760666872918017 …

          Brian, I can go all day. "The tip-toeing is over! The whispers are turning into shouts! President Trump's fitness for office is now the top story in the country. Reporters and some lawmakers are openly talking about the President's mental stability, his health, his competency."

          Bullshit Brian. What are you claiming you meant by “fitness?” His BMI?

          Oh come on! Please Brian. You know exactly what it implies. My wife is literally right here and treats those patients and said, “Yes, calling somebody’s “mentally fitness” into question is implying mental illness.
