Just in time for back-to-school shopping, the Trump-Pence reelection campaign has added “Fredo Unhinged” t-shirts to its online store. The tees cost $34.00 and come in sizes small to 3x.
“CNN’s Chris Cuomo is Fredo!” The campaign ad says. “The truth hurts. He totally lost it. Help us annoy Chris Cuomo and buy your ‘Fredo Unhinged Tee’ now!”
Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale tweeted that the campaign only has a limited supply of the t-shirts, “which was inspired by the epic & historic viral video” of CNN host Chris Cuomo’s meltdown.
Get your commemorative #FredoCuomo Unhinged shirt today! We only have a limited supply of the shirt, which was inspired by the epic & historic viral video of @CNN‘s @ChrisCuomo meltdown!https://t.co/Iv8jqnIDIk

President Trump on Tuesday had a lot of fun on Twitter at Cuomo’s expense.
I thought Chris was Fredo also. The truth hurts. Totally lost it! Low ratings @CNN https://t.co/yBpGjt4N1T

Would Chris Cuomo be given a Red Flag for his recent rant? Filthy language and a total loss of control. He shouldn’t be allowed to have any weapon. He’s nuts!

Put it back up. We are living with a Rigged & Fake Media! https://t.co/ZhanbGCxuX

After the president’s tweet, the video returned to YouTube.

The president retweeted the following tweets:
“Who am I then, Fredo?” Cuomo asked during a 2010 radio interview when his brother was considering running for governor. #FakeNewsFredo strikes again!https://t.co/wYrksxYkP8

I assume @cnn not available for comment. Imagine their coverage of this if they were a real news organization? https://t.co/uH2biAkKUZ

The president also made the following brilliant point on Twitter:
It always happens! When a Conservative does even a fraction of what Chris Cuomo did with his lunatic ranting, raving, & cursing, they get destroyed by the Fake News. But when a Liberal Democrat like Chris Cuomo does it, Republicans immediately come to his defense. We never learn!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 13, 2019
A number of “conservatives” on Twitter have rushed to Cuomo’s defense, saying that he was right to be angry because the man insulted him while he was allegedly out with his family, but that point is in dispute.
I AM THE ORIGINAL POSTER OF THIS VIDEO with direct contact with person in Video and CUOMO’S KIDS WERE NOT THERE! THEY WERE AT A BAR AND THIS WAS NEAR THE STAIRS… @ChrisCuomo was with a woman and a group of me AT A BAR! NO CHILDREN @seanhannity

If Cuomo really was out with his family when the altercation took place, that makes his unhinged, profanity-laced behavior even more egregious. Who acts like that in front of their kids?
With the exception of Hannity, most of the Cuomo-defenders fall into the “never-Trumper” category — or as Townhall’s Kurt Schlichter calls them “FredoCons.”
Ace of Spades explains why this is:
There’s no virtue to be signaled defending conservatives. No, the only way to get Liberal Doggie Treats is to beg for them from your Liberal Masters.
So that’s what all the cowards, weaklings, and half-wits do.
I think it’s time for the grifters, nepots, incompetents, and outright liberals posing as “Safe for MSNBC Fake Conservatives” to be purged.
Cuomo apologized for his behavior on Twitter Tuesday, saying he should be better than the people who “bait” him, which he complained happens all of the time these days.
Appreciate all the support but – truth is I should be better than the guys baiting me. This happens all the time these days. Often in front of my family. But there is a lesson: no need to add to the ugliness; I should be better than what I oppose.

In response to Cuomo’s tweet, a Twitter user said: “As of Tuesday morning, the viral video had over 3.4 million views – more than three times the audience that Cuomo typically draws. During the month of July, ‘Cuomo Prime Time’ averaged 954,000 nightly viewers.”
Trump responded to a Twitter user who said most of that audience comes from airports:
True! Without being stuck at an airport, where CNN buys (at a big price) an uninterested audience, they’ve got nothing going. @CNN is BAD for America! https://t.co/68pehXFHmx

Via the Washington Free Beacon, here is a video compilation of all the times the liberals at CNN used the alleged ethnic slur “Fredo” on conservatives.
UPDATE:
According to Parscale, the tee shirts are selling like hot cakes:
Selling faster than Fredo’s meltdown! Thank you #FredoCuomo for filling up our coffers. You have now directly supported the POTUS! https://t.co/UP0vhijJJB

Also — don’t question this tweet, just do it!:
EVERYONE GO ASK SIRI HOW OLD CHRIS CUOMO IS…😂
