A cover photo of President-elect Donald Trump for a new CNN book about the presidential election was taken the day of Trump's tense meeting with media executives in November, and the real estate mogul isn't happy with the shot.
According to Politico, the photo shoot occurred Nov. 21, shortly after Trump lambasted media executives — including CNN president Jeff Zucker — during a meeting at Trump Tower. The book, called "Unprecedented: The Election That Changed Everything," went on sale Dec. 6.
Politico linked to a Trump tweet commenting on the cover photo, although the post cannot be located from his Twitter feed:
Politico notes that Democrat Hillary Clinton was photographed for the CNN book at some point before the Nov. 8 election. Trump did not agree to the shoot until after he won.
According to People, two versions of the "Unprecedented" cover exist. It was not clear which one Trump was referring to in his tweet.
