President Donald Trump complained on Twitter on Wednesday that he was “forced” to watch the “FAKE” and “loser” CNN during his stay in the Philippines.

Trump, who just returned from his 12-day, five-nation tour across Asia, ripped the network he repeatedly has dubbed “fake news” for its coverage of him and his administration. In direct contrast, Trump offered praise for Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” morning show, predicting that it “will be showing much of our successful trip to Asia” while other networks ignore it.

“While in the Philippines I was forced to watch @CNN, which I have not done in months, and again realized how bad, and FAKE, it is. Loser!” Trump tweeted. “.@foxandfriends will be showing much of our successful trip to Asia, and the friendships & benefits that will endure for years to come!”

Trump often calls CNN “fake news” and complains that the network is biased against him and his agenda. The president has also taken particular aim at CNN’s White House reporter, Jim Acosta — even telling him “you’re fake news” to his face at press conferences.

Although Trump didn’t appear to expect much positive coverage from CNN about his trip to Asia, he expressed his own enthusiasm about how the tour went and how he promoted American interests abroad.

“Our great country is respected again in Asia. You will see the fruits of our long but successful trip for many years to come!” Trump tweeted.

While overseas, Trump spoke with world leaders about North Korea’s escalating aggression and the growing nuclear threat it poses to the rest of the world. The president also made the case for the U.S. to enter into fair trade deals with other countries instead of remaining in lopsided ones that disadvantage American companies and American workers.

“After my tour of Asia, all countries dealing with us on trade know that the rules have changed. The United States has to be treated fairly and in a reciprocal fashion. The massive trade deficits must go down quickly!” Trump tweeted Tuesday.
