WOLF BLITZER (HOST): Do these fake news trolls sometimes actually target President Trump himself? 

BRIAN TODD: According to the cybersecurity expert Clint Watts who you had on earlier, Wolf,  they do, in fact, do that. Watts testified today that some outlets pushing fake or misleading stories will tweet right at President Trump during high volume periods when they know he's online. They're pushing conspiracy theories hoping that he clicks on one and cites one publicly.
