CNN anchor Dana Bash cut away from President Donald Trump’s Oval Office remarks on Monday to protest his claim that CNN “hates our country.”
Trump made the comment during an Oval Office meeting with Salvadorian President Nayib Bukele, jabbing at the network over coverage of illegal immigration, particularly at the southern border, and saying that CNN “didn’t like putting out good numbers” that reflected well on his presidency.
“We’re a great country, but we had stupid people running this country. And I can say what they’ve done to us at the border should never and can never be forgotten. It’s a sin what they did, and you are helping us out, and we appreciate it,” Trump said.
“Actually, what you’re doing with the border is remarkable. It has dropped, what, 95%? It’s incredible,” Bukele agreed.
“As of this morning, 99 percent, 99.1 percent to be exact,” Trump replied.
“Why are those numbers not in the media?” Bukele asked.
“Well, they get out with the fake news, you know, like CNN. CNN over here doesn’t want to put them out because they don’t like putting out good numbers. They only like putting it out because I think they hate our country, actually,” Trump said. “But it’s a shame, you’re right. Isn’t that a great question? Why doesn’t the media, why don’t they put out numbers? Yeah, 99%, I mean, it’s crazy, right? We’re doing great. It’s a crazy time.”
CNN’s Dana Bash cut into the Oval Office meeting then to register her objection.

“I am not a witch!”
Should have said they’re a threat to democracy.
Bash and Collins both hate Trump and do everything in their power to make him look bad. Given the lies CNN broadcasts, I don’t blame Trump one bit. Those two are not journalists and do not confirm what they are saying before they say it.
New from Mattel. A Trolling Trumpasauras with lifelike grip.
Stupid-ass reporterette asked the same stupid ass question 3 or 4 times in various forms even after Trump, Bondi, Miller, and Rubio and even Bukele schooled her in great detail on the stupid-ass-ness of her question.
I think he's right, again.
Of course they hate the country. You do not lie to people you love.
CNN “hates our country
Probably true
Democrats can’t win an election without cheating
Absolutely true
She was trying to get them to say they are not going to comply with the Supreme Court ruling and then they would have a lead story for the next week or so...
If it wasn’t for hospital rooms and airport lounges nobody would watch CNN.
Zackly. It was a hypothetical
question and none of them took the bait. They simply explained to her how they DID comply with the SCOTUS ruling.
Well they have time and time again proven they hate Trump and will do anything possible to end his presidency, if not his life. That being said, they DO HATE THIS COUNTRY, because they continually reject the will of the American people who overwhelmingly elected him.
I don’t think they hate our country. I think they see politics as a sport where ‘winning’ is all that matters. The problem is, they don’t understand that for many on the far-left, ‘winning’ does mean the destruction of our country.
The hacks at CNN only see a paycheck and don’t understand what is at stake.
When Leftists in the media say “we love America”, they mean they love uncontrolled immigration (Balkanization) that is destroying America.
they hate our country
but they love them some criminal aliens
like “killer” garcia
CNN anchor Dana Bash hates America.
I think CNN despises America. Gotta say I consciously thought that about the msm in general. The NYT for instance hates America with a white hot rage.
Dana Bash, the obnoxious sock puppet, complains.
