You could visualize CNN This Morning host Audie Cornish in the green room, prepping her panelists for today's show.
"So, Trump's had a few good weeks. Worked out ceasefires between India and Pakistan, and Thailand and Cambodia. Did a bunch of trade deals, and is coming off a successful trip to Scotland in which he and von der Leyen announced a deal for a 15% tariff on most EU exports to the US, and an EU commitment to purchase $750 billion worth of U.S. energy exports. Sucks, I know. So guys, want you to get to work from the go undercutting his achievements."
That's what CNN sounded like today, dismissing any potential achievement as a phantom.
First up was CNN chief domestic correspondent Phil Mattingly, who condemned Trump's ribbon-cutting at his latest golf course as "completely an anathema to what we think a U.S. president should be doing."
Anathema? Defined as "Something intensely disliked or loathed; an ecclesiastical curse accompanied by excommunication."
Strong stuff, Phil! An anathema in CNN's eyes, but guessing most Americans will yawn at it, and millions of golfers might say, "Cool course: like to play it someday!"
Mattingly then tried to undercut Trump's peacemaking moves:
"He has been able to get on the phone with people and kind of jawbone various conflicts into pauses for a time. None of those, though, have really been long-lasting."
In fact, the India-Pakistan ceasefire appears to be holding. And even as of this morning, the AP is reporting: "Thailand and Cambodia ceasefire holds."

CNN bummed out by Trump’s successes. Tries to undermine them. Fails.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
Now, get back to EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN
Peace and prosperity are anathema to communists who are doing their level best to create chaos.
It is a common tactic for life’s losers such as the CNN panel, who have individually and collectively accomplished nothing, to denigrate someone of talent and brains who has accomplished enormously significant objectives.
Who is the idiot wearing the cowboy hat????
CNN wouldn’t give Trump credit for ANYTHING if their damn lives depended on it. The highlight of their day was supposed to be in Butler, PA, that is why they decided to air Trump’s rally, they had advance notice of what was going to happen, since then they have been down in the dumps
Where's that meme from The Princess Bride?
CNN the view act 2
It’s Democrat strategist Chuck Rocha, who worked on Bernie Sanders’ campaign.
Can’t speak grammatical English. Wears cowboy hats on every appearance. Sad.
That’s true. Even when the media doesn’t have a political goal in mind they still have their own personal jealousies towards the smart and the successful.
The Commie Numb Nuts show.
By posting this on FR, this CNN episode got more viewers than it ever got on live cable TV, LOL. They are less and less relevant every day.
It just looks silly, IMO...
There’s a time and place to wear a hat and that panel ain’t one of them...
Big news: At family and friends gathering, each person got ONE scoop of ice-cream and PRESIDENT Trump got TWO!!!
He’s all hat and no cattle.
“””He has been able to get on the phone with people and kind of jawbone various conflicts into pauses for a time. None of those, though, have really been long-lasting.”””
None have been long-lasting? Well gee, Phil. It has been almost three weeks since the India/Pakistan deal. And the Cambodia/Thailand has only been a couple of days ago.
Give it some time before happily declaring it a failure, will ya? Sheesh. You’re gonna give people the impression that you might be biased against Trump, for some reason.
All hat
No cattle
The Pakistani chief of military actually came to the US to tell Trump he was being nominated for a Nobel Peace prize. Those scary nucs might have been closer than we knew.
I read the golf course Trump opened was dedicated to his late Scottish mother.
What a special occasion. He actually has living family members in Scotland.
His visit to Scotland tied in nicely to sitting down personally with Von Der Laydown to jointly announce that $$Trillion dollar deal.
