CNN’s international diplomatic editor Nic Robertson told viewers Wednesday that German Chancellor Angela Merkel is holding the G20 summit in Hamburg instead of a more remote location to humiliate Trump. However, the G20 site was selected more than a year ago, when all bets had Hillary Clinton winning the presidential election.

Nobody cares.

You cared enough to comment.

You want to hazard a guess at what logical fallacy that you are committing here?

These appear to be the quotes at issue.

But everything he said is true. She chose to hold the summit in a location that can be surrounded by protestors. It's not as secure a location that it could have been, as it has been at some summits. She's in a re-election campaign. And the protestors are able to get close enough so that Trump can partly hear their voices of dissent. All of those appear to be true statements. And at no point did he say that the location was chosen specifically so that Trump could hear these voices. And he did not say that the location was chosen to humiliate Trump.

At least this is how I believe certain esteemed posters on this site would explain something like this. I was inspired.

The truth is that the site was selected a year ago, when everyone thought Hilliary! was going to win. The selection of the site has nothing to do with your President Trump. Like it or not CNN lied.
