AOC Has Meltdown over Trump Town Hall: “CNN Lost Control, They Should Be Ashamed of Themselves”
Daily Fetched ^ | May 11, 2023 | By: Jason Walsh

Posted on 05/11/2023 8:34:17 AM PDT by Red Badger

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) reacted angrily to Wednesday night’s CNN town hall featuring former President Donald Trump, blasting the network for hosting the event.

AOC took to social media to attack CNN.

“CNN should be ashamed of themselves,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.

“They have lost total control of this ‘town hall’ to again be manipulated into platforming election disinformation, defenses of Jan 6th, and a public attack on a sexual abuse victim. The audience is cheering him on and laughing at the host.”

“This falls squarely on CNN,” Ocasio-Cortez added.

“Everyone here saw exactly what was going to happen. Instead, they put a sexual abuse victim in harm’s way for views.”

“This was a choice to platform lies about the election & Jan 6th w/ no plan but to have their moderator interrupted without consequence.”

The Town Hall in New Hampshire saw Trump tackle a range of issues and also took control of the interview.

Trump also touched on the election result itself.

He also added, “Unless You’re a Very Stupid Person,” You See, the 2020 Election Was Rigged.

Watch

VIDEO AT LINK.....................

Trump masterfully took on arguments to host Kaitlan Collins, all while speaking directly to the audience about “gotcha” topics.

While the audience was composed of Republicans and independents, it was largely favorable to Trump and laughed and cheered throughout the broadcast.

Trump also drew laughs when he said the judge in E Jean Carroll’s civil lawsuit refused to allow his attorneys to submit Evidence that Carroll had a cat named “Vagina.”

“I like you guys,” Trump told the crowd as the evening concluded.

Heh! Am I a bad person for enjoying this?

I turned on CNN for the first time in years (decades?) last night and I’m so glad I did.

Trump did very well in my opinion, even overcoming that snippy little annoying gnat who kept interrupting him and trying to silence the truth.

Note the vocabulary. "Control." And from another article this morning, "police" speech. The real neo-National Socialists and neo-international socialists are showing themselves in their words.

The left needs to realize that debates aren’t about control of the debate it’s about the issues, but they stupidly refuse.

That’s totalitarianism on display right there.

There’s a good dozen+ threads over at DU spewing rage and hate over last night. It’s worth a good LOL to go over there and take a peek. Disinfect afterwards though.

Funny how all these libs waited until after the townhall to state their condemnation of cnn.

Because they were all hoping it would be a disaster for trump......just goes to show how outright two-faced libs are.

She unknowingly admits the truth.. the MEDIA’s purpose is to CONTROL, not to inform.

NEVER EVER DELUDE OURSELF INTO THINKING OTHERWISE.

Cope and seeth

Video: Morning Joe:CNN’s town hall with Trump “was just disgraceful on every level,”
“The most shocking part” was seeing an audience “lapping it up.”

I wish I’d have unlocked CNN to watch Trump’s one-on-one last night. Based on all the sobbing and crying from the petulant left Trump must have really took the belt to ‘em.

Thou protests too much. The media isn’t supposed to “control” what we see and hear. That’s our job. The only one we have actually in politics. Let us do our job. You do yours.
